Jason Momoa exudes confidence at the best of times, but hearing the ex-Aquaman actor talk about making a splash as incoming DCU anti-hero Lobo will certainly make you sit up and take notice.
Lobo is set to make his bow in this year's Supergirl alongside Kara Zor-El actor Milly Alcock, and the cigar-smoking, motorcycle-riding loudmouth will apparently be making his mark from his very first seconds on screen.
"I'm super pumped. It felt just awesome [playing Lobo]," Momoa said on Project Big Screen. "My first scene in [Supergirl] is like, 'I'm fucking born to do this.' There's a lot of great actors that can do stuff, but once I go on that press tour, [you'll see] 'My first shot was this. Could you do this?'"
Despite Momoa's undoubted belief in being right for the part – and his previous texts to DC Studios co-CEO James Gunn about getting the role of Lobo – that doesn't mean there's a whole DCU roadmap ahead for the bastich.
"I only know Lobo's in this one, and so we'll see what the future of all that holds. I would love for his own thing to be coming out," Momoa said in a separate interview with Screen Rant.
Supergirl flies into cinemas on June 26, 2026, almost a year after Superman launched the DCU in cinemas – with a mission statement about why not every superhero female lead needs to be "perfect."
Lobo, meanwhile, can be glimpsed in a brand-new Supergirl clip, which launched last week.
