And while The Rock quickly tweeted a riposte aimed to deflect attention from the story, a Superman/JLA-♊related ha♛shtag is a little too intriguing to completely ignore.

Due to the limp critical and commercial performance of 2011's sci-fi fantasy flick, it's unlikely that Ryan Reynolds will be recalled to reprise the role of Green Lantern Hal Jordan, so it's not too much of a strꦇetch to surmise that DC will opt for another Lantern protagonist.
