Fans are getting their first look at Jason Momoa as Lobo, the tough, morally ambiguous character. James Gunn, one of the heads of DC Studios, shared a short video online showing Momoa’s makeover for the upcoming Supergirl movie.
In a behind-the-scenes clip, Jason Momoa is seen with Milly Alcock, who plays Kara Zor-El in Supergirl. As he walks out of his trailer with a cigar, someone asks him about landing the role of Lobo. He responds with a simple, enthusiastic, “Finally!”
Finally.

The preview showcases several scenes of Jason Momoa as Lobo, backed by Blondie’s classic song “Call Me” – the same tune used in the initial teaser. This fast-paced montage gives viewers a clearer idea of the character’s untamed and defiant personality, building even more anticipation for Momoa’s first appearance as the notorious antihero.
The initial look at Jason Momoa as Lobo has sparked debate online, with some criticizing it as an uninspired casting decision. One commenter pointed out the resemblance to the ‘Knowhere’ location from ‘Guardians of the Galaxy,’ suggesting James Gunn might need to rethink his design choices to address these concerns.
One commenter said the actor is well-suited for the role, but the overall presentation still feels weak and disappointing. They predict another reboot of the DC Universe will happen sooner than expected.
One fan commented that while Jason Momoa would be perfect as Lobo, they worried James Gunn might not stay with DC for much longer and wished Momoa had waited for a different project. Another user praised the casting choice, saying Momoa already fits the role perfectly with just some white makeup and his usual biker gear.
The new DC Universe continues with Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, starring Milly Alcock (known for House of the Dragon) as Kara Zor-El. This film follows Superman, which will be released in 2025 and stars David Corenswet and Rachel Brosnahan. Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow is scheduled to premiere in theaters on June 26th.
As a huge movie fan, I’m really excited about everything Jason Momoa’s been up to! He’s been super busy getting ready for his big DCU role, and right now he’s promoting his new action comedy, The Wrecking Crew. It’s coming to Prime Video on January 28, 2026, and it’s awesome because he’s teaming up with Dave Bautista again – they play estranged brothers who have to work together to figure out who killed their dad.
Beyond playing the lead role in a currently unnamed project, Jason Momoa has a busy 2026 lined up. He’ll star in the comedy Animal Friends and play the character Blanka in the new Street Fighter movie. Plus, he’s reprising his role as Duncan Idaho in Dune: Part Three, which will be released in December.
The new animated film, Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, directed by Craig Gillespie, is based on the popular comic book series by Tom King and Bilquis Evely. The voice cast includes Matthias Schoenaerts as the villain Krem, and Eve Ridley as Ruthye, a young alien who accompanies Kara on her adventures across the galaxy.
Fans can also see Jason Momoa in the new movie, A Minecraft Movie, where he plays the quirky character Garrett “The Garbage Man” Garrison. From his roles as a space mercenary to his adventures in the world of Minecraft, Momoa continues to be a major star in the film industry this year.
