Wolfs and Deli Boys star, Poorna Jagannathan, has been tapped to star as a series regular in HBO’s Lanterns for the role of Zoe.


The Wolfs star will be playing an original character in the DC Universe. Her character is described as effortlessly confident and poised in any setting, even those where she stands out. She is every bit as composed and cunning of the influential men around her. 

 

This confirms our Exclusive scoop we reported back in October 30, 2024, where we reported Garret Dillahunt and Poorna were cast in the HBO Original Drama Series.





The HBO Original Drama Series follows new recruit (John Stewart played by Aaron Pierre) and Lantern legend (Hal Jordan played by Kyle Chandler), two intergalactic cops drawn into a dark, earth-based mystery as they investigate a murder in the American heartland.
