Fans React to Reports of Josh Brolin Being Cast as Hal Jordan in the Dcu – “This can’t be serious. They can’t be serious”

Recent rumors suggest that Josh Brolin may be making a move from the MCU to the Dcu. Known for his roles as Thanos in the first few phases of the MCU and Cable in “Deadpool 2,” Brolin could be transitioning to the rival DC universe.
According to several industry insiders, Brolin is reportedly cast as Hal Jordan in the upcoming “Lanterns” TV show, which will focus on three prominent Green Lanterns: Guy Gardner, Hal Jordan, and John Stewart.
This rumor matches earlier reports suggesting that the showrunners are seeking an older actor to portray Hal Jordan as a mentor-like figure. Although Brolin seems to fit the description of an older, more seasoned Hal Jordan well, fan reactions are mixed.
Major casting news for superhero roles typically generates a wide range of responses, and in this case, the feedback has been notably divided.
Better turn that role down. I don’t want an old Hal Jordan.
