<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\nAt CinemaCon 2026, new Supergirl footage was dropped, finally putting Jason Momoa<\/a>\u2019s wild man Lobo front and center. And in true Momoa fashion, he couldn\u2019t help but stir up the crowd by joking about a Lobo-meets-Aquaman crossover, a mashup nobody asked for, but suddenly everybody wanted.<\/p>\n Let\u2019s cut to the chase: the San Diego CinemaCon crowd got an eyeful. The extended look at Supergirl didn\u2019t bother with safe or glossy; this was raw, weird, and way more unpredictable than what fans are used to from DC . The vibe this time? It\u2019s gritty, alien, and riddled with chaos, with Milly Alcock<\/a>\u2019s Kara Zor-El navigating interstellar slums and crashing through some serious alien brawls.And of course, all eyes were on Momoa\u2019s Lobo. He bursts onto the screen on his signature space motorbike, swinging a chain like he owns the place, half-crazed grin plastered across his face. He\u2019s a wrecking ball, smoking, snarling, having the time of his life doing damage wherever he goes. The energy\u2019s nothing like the \u201csave the world\u201d swagger of Superman\u2019s usual crowd, and Momoa was seen enjoying it to the fullest.\u201cThis is a dream come true. This is the comic I collected,\u201d he told the crowd, per The Hollywood Reporter, grinning ear-to-ear.The panel had a rowdy spark; something the audience doesn\u2019t always get in these things. Milly Alcock, who is clearly still processing her leap into super-stardom from her \u2018House of the Dragon\u2019 era, called her time as \u2018Supergirl\u2019 \u201cincredibly transformative,\u201d and one could tell she meant it.Director Craig Gillespie<\/a> and the studio co-head Peter Safran were loving the chaos, too. Gillespie called this version of Kara \u201ccomplicated and flawed,\u201d while Safran dropped the news that cameras are about to roll on the Superman sequel, Man of Tomorrow.And then there\u2019s the bit that set the internet on fire: the hypothetical Lobo versus Aquaman showdown.Safran threw the question to Momoa: What happens if those two ever share a screen?Momoa barely missed a beat. \u201cI\u2019ll be honest,\u201d the star replied. \u201cI think they\u2019d take one look at each other and have a few hundred beers and be like, \u2018I like this guy.’\u201d He wasn\u2019t done yet; Momoa quipped that they would want James Gunn to make a movie about the pair, and Safran chimed in that this movie would be hitting theaters in 2031.For now, it\u2019s just a joke. Still, you never know with the storyline arc these days.<\/p>\n This time, \u2018Supergirl\u2019 isn\u2019t your textbook superhero. If you\u2019re expecting the sunbeam optimism of Superman, you need to take a seat to process all that\u2019s coming up. It\u2019s almost like a darker cousin to the usual heroes.In this \u2018Supergirl\u2019, Kara survived Krypton\u2019s destruction, witnessed way too much death, and carries scars most heroes don\u2019t have. She\u2019s traveling the galaxy with Krypto, marking her 23rd birthday, when a girl named Ruthye ropes her into a brutal revenge quest. This isn\u2019t a cape-and-tights field trip; it\u2019s a road movie through grief, trauma, and the cosmic gutter.Who\u2019s on-screen this time? Milly Alcock\u2019s Kara, obviously. There\u2019s Ruthye, set on righting a wrong. Krem of the Yellow Hills pops up as the big bad. And Lobo hovers somewhere between threat and messy ally. Even Momoa admits: Lobo\u2019s not exactly the team-up type.\u2018Cruella\u2019 famed Craig Gillespie helmed \u2018Supergirl\u2019 from a script by Ana Nogueira. The filmmaker previously discussed the movie at a press event late last year, calling the film \u201creally an anti-hero story,\u201d adding, \u201cShe\u2019s got a lot of demons, a lot of baggage coming into this, which is very different from where Superman is in his life.\u201dThe film is part of DC\u2019s new \u2018Chapter One: Gods and Monsters\u2019 slate and is scheduled for release on June 26, 2026.<\/div>\n\u2018Supergirl\u2019s CinemaCon moment: What happened?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n
