Arrowverse Creator Explains How Green Lantern Failure Led To TV Universe
Greg Berlanti, the creator of the popular Arrowverse franchise, reflects on the poor reaction to the Green Lantern film and how that ended up paving the way for the multiple television series that now make up the Arrowverse. Berlanti had a long history in television, having written for series like Dawson Creek and Everwood, before he was hired in 2007 to write and direct Green Lantern for Warner Bros. By February 2009, Berlanti was no longer attached to direct and later confirmed he had nothing to do with the finished product, despite his name being attached as a screenwriter.
