The HBO series Lanterns, which centers on DC's Green Lantern characters, has become one of the channel's standout productions in recent times with its viewership performance. According to data reported by Variety, the show's latest episode reached 7 million views in the first three days after its release.
This figure represents only the show's performance in its initial days. Looking at the overall picture, it is stated that Lanterns episodes have averaged 19 million views. Thus, the production has secured a strong position among HBO's high-viewership series.
For comparison, the most-watched episode of the series It: Welcome to Derry, which recently received a second-season renewal, reached 6.5 million views in its first three days. HBO's notable production Euphoria reached 8.7 million viewers in three days with its finale. However, this performance is considered above the season average due to it being the final episode.
In terms of average viewership data, while Euphoria reached approximately 25 million views per episode, this figure was recorded as 15.7 million for the HBO/HBO Max production The Pitt. The 19 million average for Lanterns shows that the series has captured significant viewer interest for the platform.
The series focuses on the story of two Green Lanterns following an investigation on Earth. Prominent Green Lantern characters from the comics, Hal Jordan and John Stewart, are at the center of the production. Experienced hero Hal Jordan is played by Kyle Chandler, while the newly recruited John Stewart is played by Aaron Pierre.
The cast includes names such as Nathan Fillion, Kelly Macdonald, Jason Ritter, Garret Dillahunt, and Ulrich Thomsen alongside Chandler and Pierre. The series interprets the superhero narrative with an atmosphere closer to darker, detective-style tones.
