However, this time, the Arthur Curry star will be playing DC&#8217;s Lobo, as Momoa will be part of <a href=\"https:\/\/screenrant.com\/supergirl-movie-cast-characters-confirmed\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">the Supergirl movie cast<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>In an interview with ScreenRant&#8217;s Liam Crowley for The Wrecking Crew, Jason Momoa spoke about the differences of jumping from Zack Snyder&#8217;s franchise to Gunn&#8217;s DCU, which will see the Aquaman star taking on the role of Lobo. When asked what he noticed, creatively, the differences between these two DC properties, Momoa said, &#8220;I think they&#8217;re very different because they&#8217;re also different characters. I came in on a whisp of an idea on Batman v Superman until Justice League hit.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Game of Thrones alum elaborated that &#8220;it was all pretty mapped out by Zack. He had it all very mapped out.&#8221; However, for his DCU future, &#8220;I only know Lobo&#8217;s in this one, and so we&#8217;ll see what the future of all that holds. I would love for his own thing to be coming out.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Momoa said that &#8220;I don&#8217;t know if there is. I think it&#8217;s probably up to the audience and how they feel about it, but I think he&#8217;s got his own things mapped out and I&#8217;m not privy to any of that.&#8221; He continued sharing how &#8220;I think everyone&#8217;s going to be&#8230; James&#8217;s career is just equal to what Zack&#8217;s done, what they&#8217;ve built and what their worlds are. They&#8217;re amazing directors world building.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Justice League alum explained that, &#8220;So I&#8217;m pretty excited. When I got to step into Lobo, I mean, that was a pinch me moment. And my first scene is pretty gnarly. I&#8217;m pressed to see another actor pull off that first take, what we did. I&#8217;m excited to talk about it because it&#8217;s hard. And I grabbed it with gusto and I&#8217;m very excited about it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>While DC Studios hasn&#8217;t announced what the plans are for Momoa&#8217;s Lobo after <a href=\"https:\/\/screenrant.com\/supergirl-woman-tomorrow-dcu-movie-plot-details-updates\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">the Supergirl story<\/a>, there are numerous possibilities for the popular bounty hunter. He could always continue to appear in other DCU releases as a supporting player before branching off into his own project.<\/p>\n<p>Supergirl opens in theaters on June 26.<\/p>\n<p>The Wrecking Crew debuts on Prime Video on January 28.<\/p>\n<p>        <img width=\"960\" height=\"960\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"imgi_1_g70qcjowwaado-8-1.jpeg\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/imgi_1_g70qcjowwaado-8-1.jpeg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/imgi_1_g70qcjowwaado-8-1.jpeg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>    \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/screenrant.com\/db\/movie\/supergirl\/\" title=\"Supergirl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\tSupergirl<br \/>\n\t\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<p>                                            Release Date<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tJune 26, 2026<\/p>\n<p>                                            Director<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tCraig Gillespie<\/p>\n<p>                                                                                <img width=\"100\" height=\"130\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Headshot Of Milly Alcock In The Premiere Of The Series House Of The Dragon\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/instar51873817.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/instar51873817.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>                                                                                <img width=\"100\" height=\"130\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Heasdshot Of Matthias Schoenaerts\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/instar50266349.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/instar50266349.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Matthias Schoenaerts<\/p>\n<p>\n                                                    Krem of the Yellow Hills\n                                                <\/p>\n<p>                                                                                <img width=\"100\" height=\"130\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Headshot Of Eve Ridley\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/instar53578597.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/instar53578597.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Eve Ridley<\/p>\n<p>\n                                                    Ruthye Mary Knolle\n                                                <\/p>\n<p>                                                                                <img width=\"100\" height=\"130\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Headshot Of Jason Momoa In The Los Angeles special screening of 'Common Ground'\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/instar53355490.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/instar53355490.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>        <img width=\"280\" height=\"280\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Headshot Of Jason Momoa In The Los Angeles special screening of 'Common Ground'\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/1769568194_405_instar53355490.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/1769568194_405_instar53355490.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\tBirthdate \t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAugust 1, 1979<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\tBirthplace \t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tHonolulu, Hawaii, USA<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\tHeight \t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t6 feet 4 inches<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\tNotable Projects \t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tGame Of Thrones, Aquaman<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\tParents \t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tConi &amp;
