A cool piece of fan art shows Tom Cruise suited up as Green Latern Hal Jordan for Warner Brothers’ DCEU franchise.
Back in 2017, Tom Cruise was on a shortlist of actors that DC Entertainment wanted to pursue for the role of Hal Jordan in a Green Lantern Corps movie. The list also included Bradley Cooper, Armie Hammer, Jake Gyllenhaal and even Ryan Reynolds, who portrayed Hal Jordan in the 2011 Green Lantern movie. While nothing ever came out of the list, Green Lantern fans can see what Tom Cruise could look like as Hal thanks to artwork by digital artist Mizuri.
