Green Lantern: The Animated Series
Fri, May 28, 2010 
Good news for fans of Green Lantern. Shortly after the big screen debut for the comic book hero next year, we can expect an animated series to follow.
THR reports:
Cartoon Network is planning a Green Lantern animated series.
Phil Kent, chairman and CEO of Time Warner's Turner networks unit, showed a slide with some of Cartoon Network's original programming here Thursday at TW's investor day.
It included the title "Green Lantern: The Animated Series."
Warner Bros. chairman and CEO Barry Meyer later in the day mentioned this as an example of increasing collaboration and coordination between his unit and Turner. He said the Cartoon Network show is based on the DC Comics character and will follow some time after Warner's "Green Lantern" movie, scheduled for a June 17, 2011 release.
This confirms what Bruce Timm told TMT in an exclusive interview back in April:
"With Green Lantern, it didn’t perform nearly as well as what they had hoped it would. In the long run it eventually made its money back, but the sales weren’t there right away during its release. Hopefully with the release of the Live Action film next year, that will open up the doors for more Green Lantern related material."

How was that info an exclusive? Every site was reporting not long ago that there was no more GL D2V movies coming because of the sales.
If you actually read the articles almost all of them linked or quoted thinkmcfly, so yeah I guess it was an exclusive for them.
Although I figured this was coming. I would have prefered more D2V then an animated series.
I wonder if the series will be a continuation of the live action film, continue on from the first flight, or be a stand alone continuity
My guess is it will take from the live action film, but stand on it's own.
