We finally have our first look at Jason Momoa’s Lobo in a fresh teaser for DC Universe movie Supergirl.

DC Studios co-CEO James Gun took to social media to reveal the clip, below, which sees Momoa set up a glimpse at Lobo as he will appear in the film.

Lobo is an alien interstellar mercenary and bounty hunter with superhuman strength and immortality who hails from the planet Czarnia. Like Superman, he’s the last survivor of that dead world. Lobo was created by Roger Slifer and Keith Giffen and first appeared in Omega Men #3 in 1983.

In the teaser, we see Lobo make a dramatic entrance on his interstellar, flying motorcycle, often called the “Spacehog.” There’s little to go on here, but from what we can see from this teaser, Momoa is perfectly cast as Lobo — cigar included.

Momoa, who played Aquaman in the now-discarded DC Extended Universe (DCEU), has said Lobo is his favorite comic book character and has always wanted to play him, pointing to aesthetic similarities between the two.

Speaking to ScreenRant last year, Momoa suggested we’ll get a good look at the character in the movie, but also a fleeting one.

“Well, this is the role I’ve always wanted to play,” Momoa said. “That’s the comic I loved, so I’m really nervous about it. It’s kind of a no-brainer to play this character. It’s pretty big. I don’t want to give away too much, but I mean, we look pretty dead on, exactly like the character, and he’s pretty rough and gruff and… I’ll say the bike’s really cool.”

Momoa was then asked to give an indication of how much on-screen time Lobo will get. He replied to say: “It’s her movie, so it’s great. I just come in for a little bit.”

Supergirl itself is due out June 26, 2026. It stars House of the Dragon star Milly Alcock in the title role, and another appearance from Krypto the Superdog — last seen causing havoc in Superman. Speaking of Superman, Supergirl is a very different movie from the outset, and Supergirl herself is nothing like her cousin.

DC Universe: Every Upcoming Movie and TV ShowA lot is changing for DC's lineup of movies and shows in the years ahead. James Gunn and Peter Safran, co-CEOs of DC Studios, have a strategy for a more cohesive and interconnected lineup of content moving forward. It all starts with Chapter 1, dubbed "Gods and Monsters."<br><br> It can be very difficult to keep track of all the big changes at DC these days. That's why we've put together this comprehensive list of everything currently in the works, as well as the major projects that have either been officially canceled or gone dormant. <br><br> Click on through the slideshow for all the details!

IGN attended a press conference last year in which Gunn, Alcock, and director Craig Gillespie talked enthusiastically about Supergirl. During the conference, Gunn insisted Supergirl was a completely different move than Superman, before Gillespie confirmed it takes place entirely in space.

“They are so different in tone,” Gillespie said. “And to be able to really lean into it and embrace it… and plus… are we allowed to say this? The whole movie takes place in outer space.”

Gunn added: “The outer space thing’s a big part of it because it is a space fantasy.”

Supergirl is heavily inspired by Tom King and Bilquis Evely’s comic, Woman of Tomorrow, which features a very different Supergirl than audiences are perhaps accustomed to. In July, Gunn said the DC Universe version of Supergirl is “a total mess.”
