Animated Green Lantern Show Gets Production & Plot Update

A casting call for My Adventures with Green Lantern shares some new plot information about the animated DC series.

It was announced in February 2025 that a My Adventures with Green Lantern show was in development from DC Studios and Warner Bros. Animation. The show is said to be “younger-skewing” and was announced at the same time as two other DC animated shows: DC Super Powers and Starfire.

Shortly after the announcement, executive producer Jake Wyatt confirmed that the show will be set in the same universe as My Adventures with Superman, which premiered on Adult Swim in 2023 and features Jack Quaid as the voice of Clark Kent.

“My Adventures with Green Lantern will follow high school student Jessica Cruz, who has her life upended when a Green Lantern Power Ring falls from the sky and chooses Cruz to be its champion. Things get even worse when more debris from the Lanterns’ ancient space war arrives – along with their alien foes,” the logline for the show reads.

What is the My Adventures With Green Lantern update?

Per Knight Edge Media, a casting call has gone out for the Jessica Cruz role. DC is looking for someone 18 or older to play the character, who will be between the ages of 14 and 15.

“This role will sing in the series, looking for talent who can sing. Jessica had a normal childhood: she played softball, hung out with her best friends Kyle and Nikki, and stayed out of trouble,” the casting call further reads. “But Jess’ life collapsed when everyone around her hit puberty and got mean. Betrayed by friends and bullied out of softball, Jess withdrew. Better to be small and safe than to be yourself and get hurt. We meet Jess at the top of high school: a chronically anxious freshman who starts the year hoping to keep her head down and get by…but who ends up being chosen by a magic ring to be the cosmic champion of all life – the Green Lantern. Despite her fear, anxiety, and her low opinion of herself, Jess will find that she does have the tenacity and courage to meet this challenge, to become the world’s greatest hero.”

A premiere date for My Adventures with Green Lantern has not yet been announced.
