Jason Momoa’s Lobo Update: DC Purists Will Love This!

by

The realm of entertainment is still largely ruled by superhero genres, as numerous interconnected universes churn out fresh content and vie for box office supremacy. The DCEU (accessible with a Max subscription) concluded its run with Aquaman 2, featuring Jason Momoa in the lead role. However, Momoa is set to reappear in the DC universe as Lobo, making his debut in the upcoming Supergirl film. The latest news about this forthcoming DC movie from Momoa himself is bound to excite comic book enthusiasts.

Fans who have been following DC films for years eagerly anticipated Momoa’s portrayal of Lobo, even after his successful stint as Aquaman. Now, the actor is set to join the initial lineup of DCU projects called “Gods and Monsters“. During an interview with ScreenRant about his role in “A Minecraft Movie“, Momoa expressed his enthusiasm for taking on the character of Lobo at last.

This is the part I’ve been eagerly waiting for; it’s the comic I adored, so I’m quite apprehensive about it. It seems like a perfect fit to play this character, given its significance. It’s quite a significant role. Without revealing too much, let me tell you, there’s an uncanny resemblance between us and the character, he’s tough and gruff, and… well, the motorbike is quite impressive.

It appears that his enthusiasm for the role is genuine, particularly with regards to portraying Lobo. While Jason Momoa delivered an exceptionally charismatic performance as Aquaman and managed to make the DC character appealing, his fervor seems even greater for this role. This undoubtedly bodes well for his contributions in the upcoming shared universe.

Fans who love DC comics might find it advantageous to subscribe to Max, where you can get discounts of up to 16% across three plans. The lowest-priced plan starts at $9.99 per month. However, I’d suggest bundling Max with Disney Plus and Hulu for a more cost-effective solution, which begins from $16.99 a month. When Jason Momoa portrays Lobo on the streaming platform, it could be worth your while to have a subscription. Check out this deal now!

It’s evident that Momoa cares deeply about his roles, as shown by his apparent apprehension, and Lobo seems tailor-made for him on paper, given their shared traits: towering physiques and a fondness for motorcycles. Moreover, the teaser hints that Lobo’s bike will be nothing short of spectacular.

Jason Momoa has affirmed that his upcoming character in the DCU will closely resemble the comic book version, as suggested by his statements to SR. Although the exact appearance of Lobo is yet to be revealed, comic book purists can look forward to seeing him appear just as he does on the pages when he makes his debut in the movie “Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow“.

In contrast to the previous DC Extended Universe (DCU), which predominantly showcased director-led productions with fewer crossovers, the upcoming DCU seems to be shifting towards an interconnected franchise under the guidance of Co-CEO James Gunn. This new approach will encompass various mediums such as movies, television series, animation, and video games. This is a substantial undertaking, but it’s promising to have someone like Gunn leading these efforts. Additionally, it seems that Gunn has long desired Jason Momoa for the role of Lobo in this expanded universe.

I’m thrilled to share that come July 11th, 2025, the fresh DCU will grace the big screen for the first time as part of the movie releases in that year, and it’s none other than James Gunn’s Superman film. As for Jason Momoa, he’s set to embody Lobo in the Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow movie, which is slated for June 26th, 2026. I can hardly wait!
