Aquaman's Jason Momoa will officially join the DCU as Lobo in Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow.
“They called,” Momoa wrote on Instagram along with some old comments of his about his desire to play Lobo, in which he said he was just waiting for the invitation.
“So Lobo was… I collect comics and I don't do much anymore, but he was always my favorite and I always wanted to play Lobo, because I was like, 'Hello? This is the perfect role.'” Momoa said in the past. “I mean, listen. If they call me and ask me to perform with him, it's a fucking yes. I haven't gotten that call, so I don't want to put out any fake news, but if they ever call me and ask me to play or ask me to do audition, there I am.
For those unfamiliar, Lobo was created by Roger Slifer and Keith Giffen and first appeared in Omega Men #3 in 1983. His home is a planet called Czarnia and he is an interstellar mercenary and bounty hunter with superhuman strength and immortality.
With this casting and the recent Superman trailer, we're starting to get a clearer idea of what James Gunn and Peter Safran's DCU is all about. We still have a long way to go, but every new detail is welcome!
