The internet loves a good fan-casting, and few actors inspire as much passionate speculation as Jensen Ackles. After his legendary run as Dean Winchester in Supernatural and his forays into the world of DC Comics (Jason Teague in Smallville, anyone?), the actor has become synonymous with superhero potential.
For years, the cry of "Ackles for Batman!" has echoed across the internet, but a new contender has emerged, challenging the Caped Crusader's grip on the actor's future - Green Lantern.
The buzz began when Instagram user @multiversedc, known for their spot-on DC fan art and casting suggestions, released an image of Ackles as Hal Jordan, the iconic Green Lantern. Sporting the emerald ring and a jawline that could cut kryptonite, Ackles looked every bit the intergalactic peacekeeper.
The image sent fans into a frenzy, with many praising @multiversedc's vision.
"This is it! This is the perfect casting!" one enthusiastic commenter wrote.
"Ackles as Green Lantern? Sign me up!" exclaimed another.
The fan art even sparked discussions about potential co-stars, with many throwing their support behind actor Aaron Pierre ( Rebel Ridge) as John Stewart, another beloved Green Lantern.
