Nathan Fillion's Guy Gardner role in DCU

Overview

Nathan Fillion is set to reprise his role as Guy Gardner in the upcoming DC Studios adult animated series, Mister Miracle. Based on the comic books by Tom King and Mitch Gerads, the series follows Scott Free and Big Barda amidst a war between Apocalypse and New Genesis. Comic creator Tom King expressed enthusiasm for Fillion’s involvement, noting that the actor’s ‘over-the-top energy’ fits the ‘cosmic insanity’ of the series.

Fillion has described his recurring role as a way to provide ‘connective tissue’ or a ‘thread that weaves throughout the fabric of this universe.’ He suggested the character’s frequent presence is logically tied to Gardner’s personality, noting the character ‘embraces marketing’ and understands the importance of branding. Fillion is currently the most recurring actor within the DC Studios slate, with appearances spanning ‘Superman’, ‘Peacemaker’ Season 2, the HBO series ‘Lanterns’, and the upcoming sequel ‘Man of Tomorrow’.

Regarding his appearance, Fillion confirmed that Gardner will receive an updated hairstyle in ‘Man of Tomorrow’. While Fillion used the same bowl-cut wig for both ‘Superman’ and ‘Lanterns’ due to tight filming schedules, he suggested the modification for the sequel will be subtle rather than a complete departure from the character’s established look.

In new footage from the third episode of the HBO series ‘Lanterns’, Gardner is seen visiting an incarcerated John Stewart, played by Aaron Pierre. This follows the discovery of Hal Jordan’s body in the series premiere; showrunner Chris Mundy previously noted that Jordan’s ring passed to Gardner following his death.
