Supergirl Cast Reveal: Jason Momoa Joins As Lobo In Milly Alcock-led Film
Just days after releasing the first poster of Supergirl, the makers have revealed the list of some key stars who will appear in the film.
Following the release of David Corenswet-led Superman, the revamped DC Universe (DCU) is gearing up for the release of Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow. Directed by Craig Gillespie and written by Ana Nogueira, the film is set to hit the theatres next year. Just days after releasing the first poster of Supergirl, the makers have now revealed the list of a few key stars who will appear in the second instalment of the DCU.
It has already been confirmed that Milly Alcock of House of the Dragon and Sirens fame is set to play the titular character, Kara Zor-El / Supergirl. The cousin of Kal-El, also known as Superman, she made a special appearance towards the end of the James Gunn-directed film, offering a glimpse of what to expect from her character. She was raised on the destroyed planet Krypton, where everyone around her died at a very young age.
Previously, DCU co-head James Gunn told ScreenRant that Supergirl will be a 'total mess" in the film and discussed that they will be telling the emotional backstory of the character.
According to Just Jared, the very young Eve Ridley will portray Ruthye Marye Knoll, who is a noble and honourable young warrior. She will travel across the galaxy with Supergirl with her personal mission of hunting down Krem, who is responsible for killing her father. The film's main antagonist, Krem of the Yellow Hills, will be played by Matthias Schoenaerts.
As the Supergirl film will give a glimpse into her past life, it will also feature her parents. David Krumholtz will play Supergirl's father, whereas Emily Beecham will portray the role of Supergirl's mother.
Meanwhile, actor Jason Momoa has been roped in for a cameo as Lobo, who is an alien mercenary and bounty hunter from the utopian planet of Czarnia. The 45-year-old actor has previously expressed his desire to play the character. In a chat with Fandango, he said, 'If they call me and ask me to play him, it's a f–k yeah…it's the perfect role." There are also reports claiming that David Corenswet might make a cameo in Supergirl, but nothing has been confirmed yet.
Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, whose filming reportedly wrapped up recently, with shooting taking place in Iceland and England, is scheduled for release in theatres on June 26, 2026. The official synopsis of the film reads: 'Supergirl travels across the galaxy to celebrate her 21st birthday with Krypto the Superdog. Along the way, she meets a young woman named Ruthye and winds up on a murderous quest for revenge."

Pamela Anderson Repeats Claim Sylvester Stallone Offered Her Condo, Porsche To Date Him
Last Updated: Appearing on Watch What Happens Live on Sunday, the Baywatch icon stood by her story, originally shared in her 2023 Netflix documentary, Pamela, a Love Story. Pamela Anderson has once again addressed her explosive claim that Sylvester Stallone once offered her a Porsche and a condo in exchange for being his 'No. 1 girl." Appearing on Watch What Happens Live on Sunday, the Baywatch icon stood by her story, originally shared in her 2023 Netflix documentary, Pamela, a Love Story. Host Andy Cohen brought up Stallone's denial of the incident, asking Anderson, 'What do you think about him denying it?" To this, the 58-year-old actress simply replied, 'Well, how could you make that up? That was pretty specific." Cohen then lightened the moment by asking if a different car might have swayed her. 'Maybe like a Shelby Cobra or something?" he joked. Anderson laughed and replied, 'No, no, no, no, no." In Pamela, a Love Story, the actress had claimed, 'I remember talking to Sylvester Stallone one time and he offered me a condo and a Porsche to be his No. 1 girl. And I was like, 'Does that mean there's a No. 2? Uh-uh.' He goes, 'That's the best offer you're gonna get, honey. You're in Hollywood now.'" She added in the film, 'I wanted to really be in love. I didn't want anything less than that." Shortly after the documentary aired, a representative for Stallone denied the story in a statement to PEOPLE, calling Anderson's remarks 'false and fabricated." 'Mr. Stallone confirms that he never made any portion of that statement," the rep asserted. Meanwhile, both stars have moved on in their personal lives. Stallone has been married to model Jennifer Flavin since 1997. Anderson, meanwhile, has sparked romance rumors with her Naked Gun co-star Liam Neeson. Cohen even teased their budding romance on the show, saying, 'All of your friends are very much stanning this relationship, as the kids say."
