Jason Momoa Confirms He'll Play Lobo in James Gunn and DC Studios' DC Universe

 

It doesn't take rocket science to know who's perfect to play the MAIN MAN of the DC Universe, and that's exactly what former Aquaman actor Jason Momoa's going to be as he steps into James Gunn and DC Studios' DC Universe as Lobo!

That's right, the popular American actor hailing from Honolulu, Hawaii who first got his acting chops in Baywatch: Hawaii before starring as Khal Drogo in Game of Thrones, Arthur Curry/ Aquaman in the DC Extended Universe of films, and Duncan Idaho in Dune is now primed to play the popular bounty hunter who travels the cosmos with his space hog searching for targets and worthy adversaries. He'll be making his debut as the character in "Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow" - which is scheduled to be released on June 2026!

Jason initially auditioned for Lobo and said he'd love to play the character as he's a comic book fan himself. Now he gets his wish! See ya as the Main Man soon!

ICYMI: The Batman Sequel Has Been Delayed to Fall 2027

 

Those who were looking forward to Robert Pattinson's return as Bruce Wayne/ Batman in Matt Reeves' "The Batman Saga" will have to be extra patient with the next movie's release, as the untitled sequel to 2022's "The Batman" has been delayed yet again - this time to October 2027 and due to work still being needed to finish the script for the follow-up.

On Threads, DC Studios head James Gunn confirmed and gave an explanation for the delay:

"Sure. Yes, it is true. The only reason for the delay is there isn’t a full script (those of you who follow me here probably know that already). Matt is committed to making the best film he possibly can, and no one can accurately guess exactly how long a script will take to write. Once there is a finished script, there is around two years for pre-production, shooting and post-production on big films."

Recently the first spin-off series in "The Penguin" finished its first season run on Max, with Colin Farrell returning as Oswald Cobb/ The Penguin in a story set after the events of "The Batman" and explaining the origins of not only Oz but the various Gotham crime families like the Falcones and Maronis as well.
