"I Was Team Bowl Cut The Whole Way:" Superman's Nathan Fillion Reveals He Lobbied For His Green Lantern To Have His Comic-Accurate Hairstyle

Guy Gardner actor Nathan Fillion reveals his character's hairstyle was make-or-break for his Dcu casting in James Gunn's Superman. Superman marks the first on-screen appearance by a live-action human Green Lantern on the big screen since 2011's Green Lantern. This time, it's Guy Gardner's turn to defend Earth with the Green Lantern ring alongside fellow heroes like Mister Terrific and Superman. Besides his weapon and his cocky personality, what makes Guy Gardner stand out the most is his goofy-looking bowl haircut.
In an episode of Max's DC Studios Showcase Official Podcast, Superman star Nathan Fillion addresses Guy Gardner's silly haircut. According to Fillion, other hairstyles were considered, but he put his foot down and requested Guy Gardner's iconic bowl cut, as it's a core part of the character's appearance. Guy's bowl cut had to be a wig, however, as Fillion filmed another project that required him to have a less extravagant hairstyle.
