Jason Momoa Confirms New Role as Lobo in DC Universe’s Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow

Jason Momoa is officially taking on a whole new identity in the DC Universe! After years as Aquaman, the 45-year-old actor is diving into the role of Lobo, the fan-favorite intergalactic bounty hunter, in the upcoming Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow starring Milly Alcock.

Speculation about Momoa playing Lobo has been swirling since 2023, when rumors first linked him to the character. At the time, Momoa downplayed the chatter, saying he hadn’t been contacted for the role. However, the tides have turned, and Momoa took to Instagram to share the exciting update.

“They called,” Momoa captioned his post, referencing his previous statement where he expressed enthusiasm for the role. Last year, he declared, “If they ever call me and ask me to play, or ask me to audition, I’m there.” Well, it seems DC picked up the phone, and fans are ready to see him bring Lobo to life.

For those unfamiliar, Lobo is a larger-than-life character known for his colorful personality, irreverent humor, and unrelenting toughness. As the last of his kind, the Czarnian bounty hunter has been both a nuisance and a threat in the DC Universe.

This casting comes as DC continues to evolve its cinematic universe, with Momoa stepping into this new role after his celebrated tenure as Aquaman. The announcement has sparked excitement among fans, many of whom have long envisioned Momoa as the perfect fit for Lobo.
