Jason Momoa, known for his role as Aquaman in the now-defunct DC Extended Universe (DCEU), is set to bring the iconic character Lobo to life in the upcoming DC Universe (DCU) film, Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, slated for release in June 2026. Lobo, an alien bounty hunter from the planet Czarnia, boasts superhuman strength and immortality, and is the last survivor of his world, much like Superman. Created by Roger Slifer and Keith Giffen, Lobo first appeared in Omega Men #3 in 1983.
Momoa has expressed his excitement about portraying Lobo, citing the character as his favorite from the comics. He has highlighted the aesthetic similarities between himself and Lobo, which makes the role a perfect fit. In a recent interview with ScreenRant, Momoa teased fans with a glimpse of what to expect from Lobo's appearance in the film. He mentioned that while Lobo's role will be brief, the character's look will be true to the comics, complete with a cool bike and a rough, gruff demeanor.
The film, directed by James Gunn, will also star Milly Alcock as Supergirl, or Kara Zor-El. Gunn shared the first photo of Alcock in the role on Bluesky, marking the start of production. Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow draws heavily from the graphic novel by Tom King, Bilquis Evely, and Ana Norgueira, which follows the story of an alien girl, Ruthye Marye Knoll, seeking vengeance for her father's murder with Supergirl's help.
Joining Alcock and Momoa in the cast are Matthias Schoenaerts as the villain Krem, Eve Ridley as Ruthye, David Krumholtz as Supergirl's father Zor-El, and Emily Beecham as Supergirl's mother.
Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow is the second installment in the new DCU, following Gunn's Superman set to premiere this summer. The DCU's Clayface movie is scheduled for release in September 2026.
