A new TV spot and promo video for DC Studios' Supergirl have been released, and we finally get a proper look at Jason Momoa as the DCU's Ultimate Bastich, Lobo.
We caught a shadowy glimpse of the bounty hunter in the teaser trailer, but he stands fully revealed here and looks like he's stepped straight off the page. The visuals are still a tad murky; still, from what we can see, it's hard to find fault with what is obviously a comic-accurate design.
While Lobo is only expected to play a small role in Supergirl, the door is open to him returning in future DC Studios movies and TV shows. Multiple attempts to launch a solo Lobo movie have been made over the years, and that could be what's next for Momoa, depending on how well his DCEU debut is received.
"He's amazing," Momoa, who played the DCEU's Aquaman, recently said of Lobo. "It's my ultimate dream to play Lobo. I wanted to play him more than Aquaman. This is it."
DC Studios co-CEO James Gunn, meanwhile, has revealed that the actor was lobbying for the role from day one. "When it was announced that I got the job, I got a message immediately," he recalled. "It was Jason Momoa texting me saying... just all caps, 'Lobo, baby.' A billion exclamation points."
Momoa has long been adamant that Lobo was a better fit for him than Arthur Curry. Most DC Comics fans would likely agree with that sentiment, though 2018's Aquaman was a huge success, grossing over $1 billion at the worldwide box office.
"I just think I'm the right person to play the role," Momoa previously said. "If we're going to typecast me in anything, let's put me in Lobo. Motorcycles, smoking cigars, partying, dreadlocks...loves a fight, funny."
"This is the role I've always wanted to play," he later noted. "That’s the comic I loved, so I'm really nervous. It’s kind of a no-brainer to play this character."
