Supergirl Cast Reveal: Jason Momoa Joins As Lobo In Milly Alcock-led Film

Last Updated: 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." First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

‘Superman' flexes its might in second weekend with $57.3 million

James Gunn's Supermanshowed staying power in its second weekend at North American box offices, collecting $57.3 million in ticket sales and remaining the No. 1 movie in cinemas, according to studio estimates Sunday. None of the week's new releases — I Know What You Did Last Summer, Smurfs, and Eddington — came close to touching Warner Bros. and DC Studios' superhero success. Superman dipped 54% from its domestic opening, an average decline for a big summer film. In two weeks, Superman has grossed $406.8 million worldwide, a good start for the movie DC Studios is banking on to restart its movie operations. A big test looms next weekend, when the Walt Disney Co. releases Marvel's The Fantastic Four: First Steps. Strong audience scores and good reviews should help propel the $225 million-budgeted Superman toward profitability in the coming weeks. For Warner Bros. and DC Studios, Superman is key to kicking off a 10-year plan for the comic book adaptation studio. Co-heads Gunn and Peter Safra were tasked with rehabilitating the flagging operation. Next on tap are the films Supergirland Clayfacein 2026. But Superman is far from flying solo in theatres right now. Universal Pictures' Jurassic World: Rebirth came in second this weekend, with $23.4 million in its third week of release. The seventh Jurassic movie, this one starring Scarlett Johansson, held its own despite the competition from Superman. In three weeks, it accrued $648 million worldwide. Apple Studios and Warner Bros.' F1: The Movie has also shown legs, especially internationally. In its fourth weekend, the Brad Pitt racing drama dipped just 26% domestically, bringing in $9.6 million in North America and another $29.5 million overseas. Its global total stands at $460.8 million. But both of the biggest new releases — Sony Pictures' I Know What You Did Last Summer and Paramount Pictures' Smurfs — fell flat. I Know What You Did Last Summer opened with $13 million, a fair result for a movie budgeted at a modest $18 million, but a disappointing opening for a well-known horror franchise. The film, directed by Jennifer Kaytin Robinson, is set 27 years after the 1997 original. Teenagers played by Madelyn Cline and Chase Sui Wonders are again haunted for covering up a car accident. The movie's reviews (38% 'fresh' on Rotten Tomatoes) were poor for I Know What You Did Last Summer, and audiences graded it similarly. The film notched a 'C+' on CinemaScore. The original collected $72.6 million in its domestic run in 1997. Paramount Pictures' Smurfs debuted in fourth place this weekend with $11 million. The latest big-screen reboot for the woodland blue creatures prominently features Rihanna as the voice of Smurfette. But reviews (21% 'fresh' on Rotten Tomatoes) were terrible. Audiences were kinder, giving it a 'B+' on CinemaScore, but the $58 million-budgeted release will depend largely on its international sales. In 56 overseas markets, Smurfs earned $22.6 million. Ari Aster's Eddington opened with $4.2 million on 2,111 screens for A24. Since its premiere at the Cannes Film Festival, Eddington has been particularly divisive. The pandemic-set Western features Joaquin Phoenix as the right-wing sheriff of a small New Mexico town who faces off with its liberal mayor (Pedro Pascal). While Aster's first film, 2018's Hereditary ($82.8 million worldwide against a $10 million budget), helped establish A24 as an indie powerhouse, the less-than-stellar launch of Eddington marks the second box-office disappointment for Aster. His 2023 film Beau Is Afraid cost $35 million to make but collected just $12.4 million worldwide. Eddington cost about $25 million to produce. Audiences gave it a 'C+' on CinemaScore. None of Aster's previous films have been graded higher. Yet collectively, Hollywood is enjoying a very good summer. According to data firm Comscore, the 2025 summer box office is up 15.9% over the same period last year, with the year-to-date sales running 15% ahead of 2025. Summer ticket sales have amassed about $2.6 billion domestically, according to Comscore. With final domestic figures being released Monday, this list factors in the estimated ticket sales for Friday through Sunday at U.S. and Canadian theaters, according to Comscore: 1. Superman, $57.3 million. 2. Jurassic World Rebirth, $23.4 million. 3. I Know What You Did Last Summer, $13 million. 4. Smurfs, $11 million. 5. F1: The Movie, $9.6 million. 6. How to Train Your Dragon, $5.4 million. 7. Eddington, $4.3 million. 8. Elio, $2 million. 9. Lilo & Stitch, $1.5 million. 10. 28 Years Later, $1.3 million.

Maalik Box Office Collection Day 10: Rajkummar Rao's Film Nears Rs 25 Crore-Mark

Maalik faced stiff competition from films such as Superman and Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan and the new release this week, Saiyaara. Maalik, the action drama starring Rajkummar Rao, has been struggling at the box office to gain traction since its release. This is due to the competition from films such as Superman and Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan and the latest release this week, Saiyaara. As per the latest numbers, the film could not earn a crore on any day in its second week which started on July 18. The total collection stands at Rs 23.45 crore so far. According To Sacnilk, the second week began with a mere Rs. 65 lakh collection on Friday, which increased to Rs. 75 lakh on Saturday. On Sunday, the film grossed Rs. 85 lakh. With this, the net India collection for Maalik after 10 days stands at Rs. 23.45 crore and is expected to cross the 25-crore mark this week. Maalik also stars Manushi Chillar, Prosenjit Chatterjee, Anshumaan Pushkar, Swanand Kirkire, Saurabh Sachdeva and Saurabh Shukla in key parts. Speaking about the underwhelming performance of the film, Manushi Chillar said, 'With a movie like this? No, not really. Because as an actor, your job is to deliver the best, to be the character in the best possible way. One has to realise that many, many things create a blockbuster, and it's not just the quality of the film. And honestly, it is timing. Also, Maalik is not a family-friendly film. Maalik is A-rated. That automatically cuts down the audience." Maalik tells the story of Deepak, a farmer's son who rises to prominence as a gangster in Allahabad (now Prayagraj) in the 1980s. The film follows his transformation from a humble man to a feared figure, motivated by ambition and personal grief, as well as his involvement in the sociopolitical scene of the period. Directed by Pulkit, the film marks his first theatrical release. Kumar Taurani produces the film under the Tips Films label alongside Jay Shewakramani of Northern Lights Films.
