First Supergirl Trailer Teases Jason Momoa’s Comics-Accurate Lobo

The brief reveal caps a yearslong push by Momoa to play the antihero.

Overview

  • DC Studios’ teaser offers only a shadowed first look at the intergalactic bounty hunter as early marketing for Supergirl kicks off.
  • Peter Safran says Momoa lobbied hard for the role, recalling an all-caps “LOBO” text he and James Gunn received when they took over DC Studios.
  • Momoa celebrated the glimpse on Instagram, posting “I am the main man” and “Fraggin finally.”
  • James Gunn has said Lobo’s inclusion helped writer Ana Nogueira craft a traditional three-act through-line for the Woman of Tomorrow adaptation.
  • Supergirl, starring Milly Alcock, is set for a June 26, 2026 theatrical release, and Momoa has indicated his screen time in this film is limited.
