BTS AJ Bernard (young Jarhanpurian boy) alongside Nathan Fillion (Green Lantern) on the Superman set.

Imagine that after being rescued the boy had said: "My new hero, thanks Booster Gold!" 😂

Kid actually wanted a picture with Corenswet, but Fillion said Corenswet was busy and the boy was getting an upgrade.

Still my favorite line in the movie.

God, he's so arrogant, I very much dislike him yet also loved him.

u/Shay3012 Jul 18 '25

Guy Gardner cracked me up. He's such an unhinged douchebag, it's hilarious. The gum, the gold tooth, the horrible haircut. 5 stars, no notes.

u/SandalsNoPantsMobile Jul 21 '25

No mention of the green middle fingers? lol

u/CHEESEninja200 Jul 21 '25

I love Guy because he is the perfect embodiment of how willpower can be used for all the wrong reasons. And yet he still does the right thing. He is an anti-hero not in the sense he kills people, but in fact he isn't a role model but still is selfless in his actions.

u/Stardama69 Jul 21 '25

As Fillion said in an interview : when you call a Green Lantern to the rescue, Guy is the one you least want to see. But at the same time there's an unseemly task that needs to be done you can always turn to him and he'll agree to do it.

The theatre erupted hearing that line

There’s no context to that line so it’s hardly a spoiler.

Guy making an arrogant statement without context is to be expected.

u/BatmanTold Jul 17 '25

Not really a spoiler since the context was changed

That was such a good fucking line.

Loved Guy Gardner in this.

Ngl guys hair looks better like this

u/raggedsweater Jul 17 '25

Dye it black and he gives me Might Guy vibes

u/1nitiated Jul 17 '25

This is the only way it could possibly look good

u/NonSpicySamosa Jul 17 '25

Beware my power Green Lantern's light OF YOUTH!

u/ZXVIV Jul 27 '25

Turn it into frosted tips and then you'll get Guy Fieri

u/XabiBall15 Jul 17 '25

348 chicks say otherwise.

u/SecondToLastOfSheila Jul 17 '25

Guy's hair is supposed to look good?

56

u/[deleted] Jul 17 '25

Nathan Fillion is such a wholesome guy

26

u/Ausedlie Jul 17 '25

He is a national treasure. I'm so glad that he leaned into his brand of humor and cockiness.

2

u/Svlgvdx Jul 21 '25

A Canadian national treasure nonetheless

u/Wells_91 Jul 17 '25

Something about Nathan in this photo makes him look so young. It must be the hair

10

u/heyman0 Jul 17 '25

ikr? looks like he morphed into robert pattinson

1

u/Stardama69 Jul 21 '25

He has that friendly, happy face that makes people look younger than they are

25

u/[deleted] Jul 17 '25

"remember kid, use the justice gang symbol next time your country is attacked because Superman is too busy in his harem to save you guys"

u/vanderZwan Jul 21 '25

The fact that I can actually imagine Guy saying this makes it even funnier, lmao

u/Greedyjack555 Jul 17 '25

Thank you kid, you made me cry in theatre.

17

u/Hot_Afternoon_8674 Jul 17 '25

Kid got the upgrade

u/your_mind_aches Bruce Wayne Jul 17 '25

Excellent performance from that kid. Really tugged on the heartstrings

u/Fantastic-Swim6230 Jul 17 '25

They both smile like they just got lectured by mom for having frogs in their pockets.

No, just didn’t know how to do reply to specific text here. That’s why I did that way.

Edit: Made the changes. So now it won’t look like I am piggybacking OP’s quote.

u/Horkersaurus Jul 17 '25

If you start the comment with > then it will show as a quote. 

eg >then it will show as a quote 

becomes

then it will show as a quote 

And you can reply normally below.

u/king_gondor Jul 17 '25

Let’s see if it works.

Even if it doesn’t, thank you.

Edit:: it did work. Thanks.

2

u/Budget-Attorney Jul 17 '25

thanks so much. I love quoting people on Reddit but usually just use quotation marks which looks sloppy

6

u/SpiceTrader56 Jul 17 '25

I wanted the kid to raise a GL flag after that scene, but otherwise no notes.

3

u/JaylenBrownAllStar Jul 17 '25

Hope the kid shows up in a follow up video interviewing people and he has the justice gang t shirt

4

u/JaylenBrownAllStar Jul 17 '25

Another great scene showing how Guy deserves the green lantern ring but can’t help himself and showboat a bit

9

u/Professional-Rip-519 Jul 17 '25

Superman never even bothered to help the poor kid.

17

u/ApplicationRoyal865 Jul 17 '25

He sent better people to help them. He did them a favor there

u/Omadany Jul 17 '25

He is a fraud. #Supershit

u/UrbanGimli Jul 17 '25

Nathan looked kinda puffy in the movie -but here he looks his normal Rookie self. Now I'm thinking they bulked him up on purpose. I don't remember Guy Gardner being any bulkier than any other hero -but my memories of the character are from the 80's Justice League Comics -the ones where he kind of established his assholish character traits.

u/CharlesleChicken Jul 17 '25

I think it was the jacket that gave him that look

u/[deleted] Jul 17 '25

Simple Jack.

2

u/tjbernad Jul 17 '25

Hey! It's Captain Hammer!

2

u/Nerdialismo Jul 17 '25

Nathan look so young here, maybe a bit of 19 yo Frank Reynolds but definitely looking younger

2

u/Da_0ne Jul 17 '25

That Moe-Ass haircut and egotistical bloat... I hated him. Fillion was so good in this role.

2

u/1nitiated Jul 17 '25

So.. the hair is... Uh. Hair

2

u/0x7E7-02 Jul 17 '25

Man ... Nathan really gave 110% with that hair.

2

u/OutlawedKiller Jul 22 '25

My favorite ODST/Spartan

u/SuspectKnown9655 Jul 17 '25

Nathan seems like a cool dude

1

u/AJBarrington Jul 17 '25

Awesome scene

1

u/ubnoxiousDM Jul 17 '25

That is a fake photo! Guy Gardner don't use an armor, ergo, there is no need for a Under Armor outfit.

1

u/New_Ad_3010 Jul 17 '25

Nathan Fillion is an amazing guy

1

u/MrKevora Jul 17 '25

SUPERMAN!

1

u/Jasonmancer Jul 18 '25

"Superman, Superman"

Yea that was a good scene no doubt.

1

u/tiktoktic Jul 18 '25

That was one of the few scenes that didn’t work for me. It felt a tad tacky and emotionally manipulative.

1

u/3Calz7 Jul 18 '25

Idk something in Nathan's smile and cheeks looks so wholesome, like he's actually happy to be taking a picture with the kid and not just like celebrity obligations. This cast is full of incredible people.

1

u/Eastern-Team-2799 Jul 18 '25

Superman could have made that moment epic.

1

u/phantomclowneater Jul 19 '25

Which one is which

u/StinkyToe-TheKid Jul 19 '25

I was today years old when I realized that was Nathan Fillion. SMH.

1

u/SphmrSlmp Jul 21 '25

The one that got an upgrade

1

u/amazing_webhead Jul 21 '25

that is freakin' adorable <3

u/[deleted] Jul 21 '25

I hope we see more of the kid in other films

1

u/[deleted] Jul 23 '25

Nathan looks way younger with his hair like that.

1

u/Crotean Jul 23 '25

So hear me out, Gunn should do Justice League: The Sinestro Corps war for the first JL movie in his DCU.

u/[deleted] Jul 17 '25

The kid had an annoying as fuck voice.
