Jeffrey Dean Morgan keen on Lobo role in the DC universe

September 1, 2018 by Gary Collinson

After seemingly missing out on the opportunity to play the Thomas Wayne incarnation of Batman with DC Films said to have dropped its plans for a Flashpoint adaptation with The Flash solo movie, it seems The Walking Dead star Jeffrey Dean Morgan is now eyeing a different role in the DC Extended Universe.

Morgan – who cameoed as Thomas Wayne in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (and also played The Comedian in Watchmen) – has revealed that he’d be open to portraying the bounty hunter anti hero Lobo.

“The only one I want to play is DC and Lobo. He’s badass,” said Morgan when asked about potential superhero movie roles during a Q&A session at Walker Stalker Con (via Comic Book). “Marvel, I don’t know, everyone that’s in it is pretty good. I feel like all the greatest characters, they’re working.”

Morgan could theoretically get his wish, given that DC Films has Justin Fuchs (Wonder Woman) penning a script for a Lobo movie, with Michael Bay (Transformers) reportedly being courted to direct, while the Main Man is also set for a small screen appearance in the second season Syfy’s Superman prequel show Krypton.

Let us know in the comments below if you think Morgan would be a good fit for Lobo – and if not, who would you like to see in the role?
