Much like the confused atmosphere at DC, the people are also confused as to what the newly made DCU is capable of. With confirmed news that Henry Cavill would not be representing Superman in James Gunn and Peter Safran’s world, they will need to assemble a fresh Justice League pretty soon.

Although DC Universe has been confusing at times, there have been multiple iterations of Batman and Superman. Jason Momoa portraying Aquaman and Lobo at the same time could be a very well-made project… if executed properly.
With connecting storylines or alter egos, the two opposite characters of Aquaman and Lobo could meet in the middle for a final battle or co-exist in the universe in their separate ways.Jason Momoacould very well pull off the dual facade of Lobo and Aquaman but there is a catch. TheJustice Leagueactor has been attached to the upcomingFast Xand various other projects that might keep him busy.
With DCU allegedly getting a soft reboot, priority would be naturally given to Aquaman and not a lot to Lobo. WithAquaman and the Lost Kingdomset for a release date of 25th December 2023, the future of DCU will be worth watching for sure.
