The Warner Bros. and DC Studios series follows "new recruit John Stewart (Pierre) and Lantern legend Hal Jordan (Chandler), two intergalactic cops drawn into a dark, earth-based mystery as they investigate a murder in the American heartland," according to Wednesday's press release from the cable network.

The Hollywood Reporter described the comic-book adaptation as the first major TV project from DC Studios bosses James Gunn and Peter Safran.

No premiere date for the show has been announced yet.
