James Gunn and DC Studios have cast Jason Momoa as Lobo in the upcoming Supergirl Woman Of Tomorrow movie.
Momoa has been linked to the Lobo role for a long time due to fan casting. Momoa himself has voiced out in the past about his interest in the part and today confirmed his attachment to the role in a post on Instagram, where he screenshotted comments from a past interview.
Momoa posted on Instagram:
“I collect comics, and I don’t do so much anymore, but was always my favorite, and I always wanted to play Lobo, because I’m like, ‘Hello? It’s the perfect role,’” said the actor. Momoa went on to say that should DC come around asking him to play Lobo, it would be “a f*ck yeah.
They called.”
