Jason Momoa Cast as Lobo in DCU's Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow

Momoa transitions from Aquaman to Lobo, debuting as the intergalactic bounty hunter in the 2026 Supergirl film directed by Craig Gillespie.

  • Jason Momoa, previously known for his role as Aquaman, will portray Lobo in the upcoming DC Universe film Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, set for release on June 26, 2026.
  • Lobo, a popular DC Comics antihero and intergalactic bounty hunter, is expected to play a significant role in the film, possibly pursuing Supergirl at the behest of the villain Krem of the Yellow Hills.
  • The casting aligns with Momoa's long-expressed enthusiasm for the character, which he has described as a dream role, and marks a major shift from his previous portrayal of the heroic Aquaman.
  • Speculation suggests that Lobo's introduction in Supergirl could set the stage for future DCU appearances, potentially including encounters with Superman and other iconic characters.
  • The casting raises questions about audience reception, given Momoa's close association with the now-defunct DCEU, though history shows fans have embraced actors taking on multiple superhero roles.
