The dawn of James Gunn<\/strong> and Peter Safran<\/strong>‘s DCU<\/strong> is upon us (in theory), with the first DCU story, Creature Commandos<\/em><\/strong>, currently unfolding week by week. While we\u2019ve had glimpses of what to expect from this new cinematic universe, fans will get their first fully fleshed-out look into this world next summer with Gunn\u2019s Superman<\/strong><\/em>, starring David Corenswet<\/strong> as the titular character. With the first Superman trailer released<\/a> last week, the initial craze has settled, and the spotlight has shifted to news about other upcoming DCU projects confirmed to be in development. One such project, announced by Gunn nearly two years ago during his DC Studios<\/strong>‘ Chapter One: Gods and Monster<\/strong>s slate reveal, is Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow<\/strong><\/em>, which is steadily progressing as production gears up for early next year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the time that has passed since the initial announcement, Ana Nogueira<\/strong> was announced as the writer for the film, Milly Alcock<\/strong> has been cast as Kara Zor-El\/Supergirl<\/strong>, along with Eve Ridley<\/strong> as Ruthye Marye Knoll<\/strong> and Matthias Schoenaerts<\/strong> as Krem of the Yellow Hills<\/strong>. Now, major news has surfaced<\/a> that the DCEU<\/strong>‘s Aquaman<\/strong>, Jason Momoa<\/strong>, has been cast as the infamous intergalactic bounty hunter, Lobo<\/strong>, in Supergirl<\/em>: Woman of Tomorrow<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As previously mentioned, this would not be Momoa’s first turn within the realm of DC. Almost a year ago, Momoa’s Aquaman: The Last Kingdom<\/em><\/strong> officially (or unofficially?) closed the door on the DCEU’s story that was told over a decade ago. Despite his role as the DCEU’s Arthur Curry <\/strong>\/ Aquaman, Momoa has long expressed his desire to play Lobo for years, frequently mentioning it during interviews, including while promoting The Lost Kingdom<\/em>. Momoa broke the casting news himself when he shared a quote on his personal Instagram account when he said he hoped DC would reach out to him about the role one day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
