As Jason Momoa Rumors To Play LOBO For DC Grow, Actor Says Fans Will Be ‘Very Excited’ With What’s Coming

Jason Momoa recently teased a mysterious “dream” project he’s been cooking up at DC Studios under new leadership from James Gunn And Peter Safran. There are growing rumors that this project will be a Lobe movie, and now the actor is getting questions about it during his current press tour for Netflix Slumberland.

During a recent interview with CBR, when asked about this rumor, he didn’t come out and confirm the news. But he said fans will be very excited about what’s coming. He said:

“Well obviously I have to blink so there’s no way I can get out of it without blinking, but you know it would be great if that happened. I’m just happy that [James] Gunn is at the helm and… [Peter] Safran, which is just like my heart. So they’re in good hands and I think comic fans all over the world will be very excited.”

There’s a very good chance this movie could finally happen one day. Lobo also seems like the kind of character James Gunn would love to see played out in a DC movie. It would certainly be interesting to see Momoa play two separate DC characters in the same universe, should Gunn and Safran decide to continue with the current direction of the DCEU.

Gunn previously teased what he’s currently working on with Safran for the DC Cinematic Universe, saying they’re trying to tell the greatest story ever told in multiple films:

“But all of our initial focus is on the story moving forward, crafting the new DCU and telling the greatest story ever told across multiple films, television shows and animated projects. We invite all DC fandoms from across the multiverse – and all the others in this new universe. We look forward to revealing more.”

Lobo could easily fit into that plan and Momoa is perfect for the role! Gunn recently opened up about his ideas for the future of DC Studios, saying they’re already planning for the next eight to 10 years:

“The opportunity to make DC as big as possible and the way it should be – that’s why I’m doing this job, because I know Peter and I can do it. We’ve spent the last couple of days with a group of some of the best thinkers in the business, the best writers in the business, starting to lay out that eight- to 10-year plan of what it’s going to look like in theater, on TV, in animation, across the board. for these characters.

Zafran added:

“This was such a unique opportunity to tell a great overarching story. A beautiful big story across movies, TV games, live-action and animation.

Come on guys! Let’s see what kind of epic DC universe you will build for us! I’m ready! While we wait for more details, what are your thoughts on the possibility of Momoa playing Lobo!?
