New SUPERGIRL teaser video reveals the best look yet at Jason Momoa’s Lobo

After the briefest of glimpses in the Supergirl trailer, a new social media video has provided fans with a first full look at Jason Momoa‘s take on Lobo, an intergalactic bounty hunter who, despite being an antihero in the comics, has often been cast in other media as a Superman villain.

In Supergirl, the titular hero heads to space to celebrate her birthday, but gets wrapped up in tragedy and a quest for revenge. Momoa co-stars as Lobo, and given his physical resemblance to the character, fans have been especially excited to see how the former Aquaman star translates the character to live-action.

Momoa, who has never made it any secret that he loves the character of Lobo and wants to play him, starts the video out of costume, offering his take on the role succinctly:

“Finally,” he says.

Lobo previously made his live-action debut in Krypton, in which the character was played by Emmett Scanlan, who previously appeared in Constantine and Guardians of the Galaxy. Scanlan’s performance drew praise, although some fans complained that he wasn’t physically imposing enough to play the character. For Momoa, that’s not an issue.

DC chief and Superman filmmaker James Gunn won’t direct this film, serving as producer and handing the reins to filmmaker Craig Gillespie, best known for his dramas like I, Tonya, Dumb Money, and the Disney event film Cruella.

“We see the difference between Superman who was sent to Earth and raised by loving parents from the time he was an infant, versus Supergirl who was raised on a rock, a chip off Krypton, and watched everyone around her die and be killed in terrible ways for the first 14 years of her life, and then came to Earth when she was a young girl,” Gunn explained back when the movie was first announced. “She’s much more hardcore, she’s not exactly the Supergirl we’re used to seeing.”

That’s emphasized by a rumored plot synopsis referring to her quest for revenge as “murderous.” The comics story on which it’s based, Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow by Tom King and Bilquis Evely, gave Supergirl its working title, but with the upcoming Superman sequel now called “Man of Tomorrow,” it’s possible DC just didn’t love the idea of confusing audiences by using the names back-to-back.

Supergirl is expected in theaters on June 26.
