An entire generation grew up with John Stewart as their "main" GL, and despite that he's not appeared at all in the DCEU. Does someone high up at DC just non-Hal Green Lanterns?
Why doesn't DC push John in their movies/animation?
Matthew Reyes
Josiah Reed
He’s not that great
Levi Robinson
He was in the DCAU. No reason to not use that interpretation of his character and have it on the big screen.
Lucas Edwards
Because John is boring as fuck.
Honestly he was the least interesting character in the JL cartoons, all he had going was that Hawkgirl romance.
Frankly I feel I can say with certainty he's mostly popular not for anything he did but simply because the cartoon was popular and they made him a founding leaguer in it.
Robert Martin
A lot of people were, Question, Supergirl, Captain Atom, John was always seen as the less interesting bossy guy. He never did anything special. He was just a hanger-on.
Joseph Murphy
>John was always seen as the less interesting bossy guy
Honestly with Batman around he redundant at being that too.
Dominic Clark
The thing is though, John is literally just black Hal. The only reason why Hal might be more interesting is because for years, he was the 'main' GL and thus, he had the most focus and the most storylines. Otherwise, aside from the whole Parallax thing, they both might as well be the same character.

Is he really tho?
John Cook
Not really, Hal’s the reckless cocky dumbass, John’s an architect, those guys are smart.
