Jensen Ackles Is The Perfect Casting Choice For Another DC Superhero Besides Batman In New DCU Image Edit

An image posted to social media has turned the popular fan cast of Jensen Ackles as Batman on its head by imagining the DC voice actor as another superhero instead. Ackles is perhaps most well known for portraying Dean Winchester in Supernatural, but is already well-versed in DC productions after appearing as Jason Teague in Smallville and voicing Jason Todd and Batman in various animated productions. His experience with the animated version of Batman has caused many fans to call for his casting as the Caped Crusader in the DCU.
Instagram user @multiversedc has posed an alternative casting choice in an image posted to social media, however - namely Hal Jordan"s Green Lantern. The post also suggests that Aaron Pierre, who recently starred in Rebel Ridge and Genius, would be the best choice to cast as the DCU"s John Stewart. Comments suggest that these choices has landed pretty well with other fans, though the few that detract from the choice seem mostly preoccupied with securing Ackles as Batman instead. Whether these fan casts prove feasible, however, is another story altogether.
Could Jensen Ackles Actually Be Cast As Hal Jordan In DC's Green Lantern Show? Jensen Ackles' Filming Schedule Might Pose A Significant Obstacle Close The DCU"s Lanterns series is confirmed to star Hal Jordan and John Stewart, though further details - including the main cast - have yet to be confirmed. The only actor that has been cast as any Green Lantern within the DCU so far is Nathan Fillion, who will be making his debut in 2025"s Superman as Guy Gardner. There has been no concrete release date given to Lanterns yet, but the prevailing theory suggests that it will follow Superman and precede The Authority, as recent reports suggest it aims to wrap filming in mid or late 2025.
According to James Gunn, Lanterns is intended to be a True Detective-style story in the DCU.
Should Lanterns be slated for a slot between Superman and The Authority, then Ackles" upcoming projects may get in the way of his involvement. At the time of writing, Ackles has already begun work on Countdown, in which he stars as the lead character Mark Meechum. Meanwhile, season 5 of The Boys and spin-off show, Vought Rising, in which he is poised to star as Soldier Boy, are also likely to begin filming at a relatively inopportune time, as The Boys is slated to return in 2026.
