HBO’s *Lanterns*, an adaptation of the Green Lantern comics, is still first on HBO Max’s global streaming chart three weeks after its season finale. Its sustained ranking points to strong audience interest and could support a second season, though no renewal has been confirmed.

The series stars Kyle Chandler and Aaron Pierre, whose performances have been praised by viewers.
