Following Hal Jordan's introduction in my Justice League 1 rewrite, the first human Green Lantern would return in a 5-film saga where we more or less follow Superframe's pitch for how the Green Lanterns should be adapted to the DCEU (see his video to the right for the full pitch). The first film in this quintet, Green Lantern Corps, would more or less be a live-action adaptation of the animated film Green Lantern: First Flight and would basically be Lethal Weapon in space. Hal and Sinestro will be assigned to work together to investigate the rise of the Manhunter threat, with Sinestro neutralizing the threat by embracing the power of the fear and becoming a Yellow Lantern. The film ends with Sinestro and his Green Lantern defectors retreating from Oa after being bested by Hal.

The second GL film -  Sinestro Corps War - would see Hal receiving a promotion to the Honor Guard after impressing the Guardians by preventing two crises and defeating both Steppenwolf and Sinestro, all as a rookie. But before he can accept his promotion, Hal must train the new recruit who is to be his replacement as Earth's protector, John Stewart. This film would adapt the Sinestro War Corps comics as the GL Corps wages an intergalactic war with Sinestro and his Yellow Lanterns after Sinestro begins his journey as a conquering warlord. The third film - Rage of the Red Lanterns - would revolve around the creation of the Blue Lanterns as they become the anecdote to the emerging Red Lantern threat. Guy Gardner would be introduced briefly in this film after John Stewart is likewise promoted. The fourth film would be a personal story for Hal that deconstructs him as a character, similar to how Halo 4 deconstructed Master Chief. Hal's longtime girlfriend Carol becomes a Star Sapphire and they team up to investigate suspicious activity from the Orange Lantern Corps. The 5th and final film would adapt the Blackest Night comic arc while also introducing Kyle Rayner.
