Jason Momoa's Epic Transformation Revealed: Exquisite DC Fan Art Casts Him as a Sinister Villain

New fan art envisions Jason Momoa as Lobo, the notorious alien bounty-hunter from DC Comics, in James Gunn's upcoming DC Universe. As fans eagerly anticipate the release of Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, which has faced behind-the-scenes challenges but is nearing its theatrical debut, they are already envisioning Momoa in future DC projects. Created by Reel Anarchy, the artwork showcases Momoa's potential as the iconic Lobo.

The initial proposal suggests Lobo as a potential villain in Gunn's Superman: Legacy, featuring David Corenswet as the new Man of Steel. Considering the history between Lobo and Superman in the comic books, this idea seems feasible for DC Studios.

Reel Anarchy additionally shared an AI video showcasing Momoa's transformation into Lobo for the DC Universe. Momoa has openly expressed his admiration for Lobo, indicating that he may be involved in a covert DC Studios project centered around the DC bounty-hunter.

What DCEU Actors Are Confirmed To Return For James Gunn's DC Universe?

Several DCEU actors have already been confirmed to return for Gunn's DC Universe, although it will be some time before we see them. John Cena will continue his role as the titular character in Peacemaker season 2, while Viola Davis will reprise her role as Amanda Waller in the Waller series. Peacemaker stars such as Steve Agee's John Economos are set to appear in Waller, with the possibility of Jennifer Holland's Emilia Harcourt, Danielle Brooks' Leota Adebayo, and Freddie Storma's Vigilante also making an appearance. Agee will also be lending his voice to John in Creature Commandos, which will feature the return of Sean Gunn as Weasel and introduce the new character, G.I. Robot.

Nathan Fillion, who portrayed T.D.K. in Gunn's The Suicide Squad in 2021, is making a significant return as Green Lantern in Superman: Legacy, specifically as Guy Gardner, one of the well-known Emerald Knights. Whether Gunn has enlisted other DCEU actors for new roles is still uncertain. With Fillion taking on the role of a prominent DC hero this time, it wouldn't be surprising if Gunn has already recruited a few more familiar DCEU actors for new characters.

If Momoa's secretive collaboration with DC Studios turns out to be connected to Lobo, it appears that fans are already embracing the idea. Given Momoa's suitability as the beloved bounty hunter, this potential project is gaining traction. Despite concerns about the problems surrounding Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom behind the scenes, this should not hinder Momoa from portraying a completely different character in the DCU. In fact, it might even prompt a recasting that allows him to continue his involvement in the franchise. Hopefully, Momoa's exact role in the DC Universe will be clarified soon, regardless of what it may be.
