- Lanterns‘ release date has reportedly been revealed
- Until now, HBO had only officially announced that it’ll arrive in August
- The DC Universe TV show could drop once House of the Dragon season 3 has ended
The release date for Lanterns, the next DC Universe (DCU) TV show, has reportedly been revealed.
Per Collider, the DCU Chapter One project, which will air on US cable network HBO and various streaming platforms including HBO Max across the globe, is apparently coming out in North and South America on Sunday, August 16. Lanterns is also expected to drop in other territories on Monday, August 17.
Collider doesn’t reveal where it learned this information from. However, ResetEra forum user DinkyDev noticed that an updated version of Lanterns‘ first trailer, which was recently uploaded to YouTube, now includes the mid-August launch date reveal.

Unfortunately, the re-uploaded teaser has since been made private, so I can’t verify if this is true or not. Nonetheless, I’ve reached out to HBO Max and parent company Warner Bros. Discovery for an official comment on the release date rumor and updated teaser. At the time of publication, I haven’t received a response, but I’ll update this article if I hear back.
Why Lanterns’ mid-August launch would make perfect sense
Until now, we only knew that the DCU‘s next TV series would make its bow sometime in August. However, with HBO seemingly confirming it’ll drop on August 16/17, that date would be an ideal fit for not only its Green Lantern production, but also from a scheduling perspective.
Why? Because House of the Dragon season 3, whose own release date was recently revealed to be June 25/26 alongside its official trailer, will end on August 9/10.
Unsurprisingly, that means HBO will have a vacant primetime slot to fill with another tentpole TV series. What better option is there to take over from House of the Dragon‘s latest eight-part installment than a highly-anticipated comic book show that’s already set to arrive in August?
While we wait for an official announcement on its launch date, find out everything we know so far about Lanterns. Once you’re done, get the full scoop on House of the Dragon season 3.
