The film is directed by Craig Gillespie and written by Ana Nogueira, based on the DC Comics series by Tom King and Bilquis Evely. In addition to Alcock and Momoa, the cast includes Matthias Schoenaerts as villain Krem of the Yellow Hill and Eve Ridley as Ruthye Mary Knolle.

Momoa’s casting as Lobo was officially announced in December 2024, confirming long-standing fan speculation. The actor has previously spoken about his enthusiasm for the character, calling Lobo his favorite DC comic figure and describing the role as a natural fit. Momoa, who previously portrayed Aquaman in the former DC Extended Universe, has emphasized that Lobo was a character he had hoped to play for years.

Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow is positioned as a key installment in DC Studios’ new cinematic direction, expanding the universe beyond Superman-focused stories. The film is scheduled to be released in theaters on June 26, marking Lobo’s first live-action appearance within the rebooted DC Universe.
