DC Studios Announces “Green Lantern,” “Starfire,” “Super Powers” Animated Series In The Works

DC Studios co-chiefs James Gunn and Peter Safran announced during a Feb. 24, 2025 press event that a trio of “younger-skewing” shows have been greenlit by the studio and are in active phases of development. The three unveiled series were DC Super Powers, Starfire, and My Adventures with Green Lantern. The cartoons are part of DC Studio’s plans to release at least two live-action films and one animated film per year, and two live-action and two animated TV series per year.

Sam Register, President, Warner Bros. Animation, Cartoon Network Studios and Hanna-Barbera Studios Europe, is executive producing the three new animated shows, which will be produced by DC Studios and Warner Bros. Animation. Details on the three series, plus title treatments, can be found below.

In My Adventures with Green Lantern, a Green Lantern Power Ring falls from the sky and chooses high school student Jessica Cruz to be its champion. When more debris from the Lanterns’ ancient space war arrives along with their alien foes, she must make the oath to defend Earth in brightest day and blackest night. My Adventures with Superman co-executive producer Jake Wyatt is executive producing, and Stephanie Gonzaga (DuckTales, Shimmer and Shine) is co-executive producer. My Adventures with Green Lantern will also share continuity with My Adventures with Superman.

Learn the origins of the Tamaran-born Teen Titan in Starfire, which sees the alien princess use an ancient spaceship on her home planet to explore the stars. On her adventure across the galaxy, Starfire meets space biker Crush, plant-loving Fern, and the magical Princess Amethyst of Gemworld. Together, they will “uncover the deepest reaches of the DC universe, save Space Dolphins, surf technicolor nebulas, and boldly soar into the unknown.”

Josie Campbell (My Adventures with Superman, She-Ra and the Princesses of Power) is the executive producer, and the co-executive producer is Brianne Drouhard (Teen Titans, Amethyst, Princess of Gemworld).

Lastly, DC Super Powers takes place at the Alliance School for Heroes and focuses on new students Lightning, Flash, Plastic Man, Aquagirl, Green Lantern and Terra who “level up their powers under the supervision of Principal Martian Manhunter, in the hopes of one day graduating and becoming the next generation of Earth’s defenders.” Matt Beans is executive producing with Michael Chang as a supervising producer.

In addition to these projects, DC Studios has already greenlit a second season of Creature Commandos, an animated movie featuring Dick Grayson and Jason Todd called Dynamic Duo, and an animated series spun out from the 2023 Blue Beetle movie following the Xolo Maridueña-voiced Jaime Reyes.
