Momoa’s DC Films Future With James Gunn in Charge
Of course, a lot of fans are wondering exactly what role the beloved actor will play in the DC Universe going forward. Just yesterday, news came down that his friend Henry Cavill wouldn’t be playing Superman anymore in a DC Films project. The decision comes as James Gunn and Peter Safran solidify their plans for the cinematic universe. There has been a ton of speculation that Momoa will end up being Lobo in this new iteration of the comic book landscape. What that means for Aquaman? No one really knows. At this point, its not inconceivable for him to play both roles. But, DC might not want to confuse people too much. Check out his comments to CBR after Gunn was announced as head right here.
“Well I have to obviously blink, so there’s no way I can get out of this without blinking, but you know that would be amazing if that happened,” Momoa said while trying not to feed the fires too badly. “I’m just happy that [James] Gunn is at the helm and [Peter] Safran, who is just like my heart. So I’m in good hands and I think comic book fans around the world are going to be very excited.”
