LANTERNS Casts Sinestro, Danish Actor Ulrich Thomsen Will Play Iconic DC Villain
Thaal Sinestro debuted in issue #7 of Green Lantern, all the way back in 1961. Initially portrayed as a former Green Lantern who morphed into a ruthless dictator on his home planet Korugar, the Guardians of the Universe took away his green power ring from him due to his misconduct. He then created another ring, fueled by yellow energy instead. Sinestro frequently clashed with Green Lantern Hal Jordan in the comics, serving as Jordan’s main adversary. In the Super Friends cartoon, Sinestro became a member of the Legion of Doom. In today’s DC Comics era, his fame skyrocketed when he established the Yellow Lantern Corps, which draws its power from fear. The Sinestro Corps saga in the 2000s remains one of the most beloved Green Lantern stories to date.
