Jason Momoa's look as antihero Lobo in 'Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow' unveiled

First look at Jason Momoa as the antihero Lobo in DC's 'Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow,' directed by James Gunn and starring Milly Alcock.

"I always wanted to play Lobo, because I'm like, 'Hello? It's the perfect role.' - Jason Momoa"

Los Angeles, Jan 24

Hollywood star Jason Momoa's look as the antihero Lobo in "Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow" has been unveiled via footage shared by filmmaker James Gunn.

In a video posted to Instagram, Momoa is seen stepping out of his film trailer wearing fangs. "Finally," he says to the camera before driving off to set. The video then cuts to an official look at Momoa's Lobo in the upcoming superhero movie.

"Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow" starring "House of the Dragon" actor Milly Alcock as the eponymous hero (aka Kara Zor-El), is the second film in Gunn and Peter Safran's rebooted DC Universe following 2025's "Superman," starring David Corenswet as the Man of Steel and Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane.

Craig Gillespie directed "Supergirl," which also includes Matthias Schoenaerts as villain Krem of the Yellow Hill and Eve Ridley as Ruthye Mary Knolle. Ana Nogueira ("The Vampire Diaries") wrote the screenplay based on the series of DC comics by Tom King and Bilquis Evely.

Momoa's casting was announced in December 2024. At the time, the "Aquaman" actor confirmed the news by sharing a quote from a 2023 interview with Fandango, reports variety.com.

"I collect comics, and I don't do so much anymore, but he was always my favorite, and I always wanted to play Lobo, because I'm like, 'Hello? It's the perfect role,'" he said in the interview.

"I mean, listen. If they call and ask me to play him, it's a yeah. I haven't received that call, so I don't want to put any fake news out there, but if they ever call me and ask me to play, or ask me to audition, I'm there."

"Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow" hits theaters June 26.

Momoa made his acting debut as Jason Ioane on the syndicated action drama series Baywatch: Hawaii in 1999, which was followed by portrayals of Ronon Dex in the science fiction series Stargate Atlantis, and Khal Drogo in the first two seasons of the fantasy drama series Game of Thrones.

He went on to play the lead roles in the historical drama series Frontier, and TV shows See and Chief of War. Since 2016, Momoa has appeared in various DC Comics media, first portraying Aquaman. He has also played Duncan Idaho in the science fiction film Dune, and has starred in the action film Fast X.

Honestly, I'm more excited for Milly Alcock as Supergirl after seeing her in House of the Dragon. The DC reboot has potential, but James Gunn needs to deliver a solid story, not just cool looks.

As a comic fan, Lobo is one of my favourites. Momoa seems genuinely passionate about the role, which is a good sign. Fingers crossed the screenplay is strong. The DCU needs a win.

The look is wild! The fangs are a great touch. It's interesting to see Momoa shift from a hero to an antihero. June 2026 feels so far away though!

Good to see Indian representation behind the scenes too with Bilquis Evely's art being part of the source material. Hope the movie captures the spirit of the comic. The cast looks promising.

I have a bit of a concern. Momoa is a great physical fit, but Lobo is also very funny and over-the-top in the comics. I hope he can pull off the humour and not just be a growling brute. The success of this reboot really depends on these character nuances.
