When asked if he'd reached out to Ritchie yet the actor played down the previous reports about his involvement in the project, "I said that in passing," Morgan told MTV News. "I don't t know that I'm a big blue guy."

"Lobo happens to be a character that flies by the seat of his pants," said Morgan of the character's appeal. "I don't know if I'm the guy or not, but I think it's going to be one hell of a movie. I'll certainly be going to see it."

However, the actor was quick to clarify that he would definitely be interested in playing the character. "Hey, if Guy Ritchie came to me and said, 'You want to do Lobo?' I'd say, 'Yeah,'"

Now Guy Ritchie is not with Madonna! Im sure he will get back to making great movies!

Im sure this will be a very cool movie! However i feel there is much better DC Charcters to do first, such as Supes, Flash, WW, Green Arrow, etc...

DC Entertainment: Priorities!!!

cool news tho, joshw24 : )

"Bite me fanboy!"

A film version of 'Lobo's Back' or 'Paramilitary Christmas Special' (timed just right to come out during the holiday season - it could be the new 'Bad Santa'!) would be KICK @SS!! One thing though, none of this PG-13 'kid friendly' crap! Lobo has got to be rated 'R' all the way, or nuthin' at all!!!!

I think I'm OK with this idea. Now that they have my permission, they may proceed.

LEEE777 - 10/13/2009, 3:17 PM
JOSH @ How can you even call yourself a comic book fan if you've never even heard of LOBO since a few weeks back?!?

Oh my, the mind boggles! : D

ECKS @ Lol, im glad they got the green light!!

LEE: Its simple really - because DC sucks and Marvel doesnt. I dont want or need to read comic books that constantly changes and screws up continuity and whose heroes are pretty much invincible and have museums!!!
JoshWilding
JoshWilding - 10/13/2009, 3:26 PM
...and considering you had never heard of the Young Avengers a little while back I dont think you have the right to say whether someone can call themselves a comic book fan or not!
LEEE777
LEEE777 - 10/13/2009, 3:28 PM
DC don't suck man, theres a lot of good quality DC comics and VERTIGO out there!

Saying DC sucks is abit um ignorant you know lol.

But come on, everyone knows Lobo if you read MARVEL or not???

Really you should test the waters, your missing out.

@LEEE- I'll have you know I have not given the green light to the following: any X-Sequels, Spiderman 4, Transformers 3, Captain America or anything that rat bastard Ratner is attched to...that phallus.

LEEE777 - 10/13/2009, 3:30 PM
JOSH @ WTF? I knew of THE YOUNG AVENGERS, thats just one comic book ive never read?? Not a whole [frick]ing comic book company lmao??!

And i never said they sucked, so whats your point?? ; D
LEEE777
LEEE777 - 10/13/2009, 3:31 PM
ECKS @ Okay dude, gotcha lol!!!

JoshWilding - 10/13/2009, 3:35 PM
I've read enough DC to know that its nowhere near Marvel quality (I mean, why bring back Jason Todd - which was a great arc - only to turn him into a psychotic 2 dimensional villain! Look what Marvel did with Bucky!!!) And its not ignorant its an opinion - just as you say that "tAckles" would make a crap Captain America!!
LEEE777
LEEE777 - 10/13/2009, 3:45 PM
But he would JOSH, but we wont go there! : D

It does make me laugh though you talk about stuff like that, yet you read the ULTIMATE lines?????

By the way JOSH, if it wasn't for DC you would have no MARVEL COMICS! ; )

On another note, do you think JDM & RDJ look alike, i reckon they could play brothers!

"It does make me laugh though you talk about stuff like that, yet you read the ULTIMATE lines?????"

That coming from someone who hasnt even read a few issues of the Ultimae line (and someone who is too narrow minded to accept the line as a seperate entity to the regular Marvel Universe!)

And sure, an average actor who can barely do an American accent and a guy who's best known for playing a gay character in Sex in the City would make much better Captain America's! But we wont go there...

Guys, unfortunately my article got deleted (though to be fair it wasnt actually comic book movie news!) but Marvel have just announced the details for "Siege" - which reunites Captain America, Iron Man and Thor for the first time in a decade! The interview is over at...

Here's one of the promo images for the event! :)

JOSH @ Whos rattled your cage lol??

Im trying to tell you theres much more in the comic book world than just Marvel??? Your missing out big time!

Man you must be reading some of the great Independent comic book about surely?

Hey not having a pop, if you like sticking to just Marvel then cool, just good books out there!
LEEE777
LEEE777 - 10/13/2009, 4:05 PM
JOSH @ I thought there was an article already about that?

Looks good though, im getting it!!

By the way, i saw some of that HOUSE series an its not bad!

LEEE777 - 10/13/2009, 4:07 PM
KEV @ JDM will do a great job as LOBO, though i wanted DURRAND, i really like JDM too, but not ROUKE, great in the Wrestler but he's MARV, cant see him as LOBO too, but then again a lot do, so you never know?!
