According to Max, Aaron Pierre has landed the role of John Stewart in the upcoming superhero drama series, “Lanterns.” It was recently revealed that Pierre was one of a couple of actors who were leading the race to land the role.

Here’s the synopsis for the series:
The series follows new recruit John Stewart and Lantern legend Hal Jordan, two intergalactic cops drawn into a dark, earth-based mystery as they investigate a murder in the American heartland.
