Jason Momoa makes his DCU debut as Lobo in a new Supergirl clip, crashing a bar in pursuit of a target as the immortal bounty hunter who wiped out his own planet. It’s his first turn in James Gunn’s rebooted universe after Aquaman in the DCEU. Supergirl opens in France on July 1, 2026.
Leather, grime, and a grin you can smell through the screen: the first Supergirl clip drops Jason Momoa into the DCU as Lobo, and the barroom doors do not stop swinging. He’s the immortal bounty hunter with a god complex who wiped out his own world, now stalking a target under neon lights while the franchise draws a hard line between past and present. It’s Momoa’s on-ramp from Aquaman to Gunn’s rebuilt universe, with extra teasers showing Kara Zor-El touching down beside David Corenswet’s Superman and Krypto, plus a brawl against alien bruisers. France circles July 1, 2026 on the calendar.
A bold new chapter for Jason Momoa
After years anchoring Atlantis, Jason Momoa is stepping into the grime and swagger of Lobo. The bounty hunter makes his first DCU appearance in a fresh clip from Warner Bros., a tight, punchy scene designed to set the tone. Indeed, it signals a louder, rougher corner of space for the franchise, and a new lane for Momoa inside DC’s reset.
Lobo arrives in the DCU
The footage leans into the myth: an immortal bruiser with a god complex, the last Czarnian by his own hand. We catch Lobo prowling a galactic bar, scanning for a target, all sharp grins and casual menace. Momoa’s cadence sells a mercenary who can crack a joke while upending a table. It feels ripped from the comics, without softening the character’s bite.

Supergirl and the revamped DC Universe
The film carrying this reveal is Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, part of a fresh slate overseen by James Gunn and Peter Safran. Kara Zor-El is played by Milly Alcock, charting a sharper, more self-reliant path through the DCU. Another clip shows Kara meeting her cousin on Earth, with David Corenswet stepping in as Superman, and even a quick nod to Krypto for good measure.
When to watch Supergirl
Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow is slated to open in US theaters on July 1, 2026. Expect more teases as the date nears, likely layering in how Lobo intersects with Kara’s journey. For now, the message is clear. The DCU is widening its orbit, and Momoa’s bruiser is kicking the door open, ready to make a mess of anyone unlucky enough to be on his list.
