Brad Peyton Directing Lobo

[Jake Cassidy]

Yep and Chris Evans has been in a DC movie and 4 Marvel movies with 2 more to come so I guess that puts him in the lead? It used to be Ryan Reynolds who was all over the place. The whole an actor playing multiple comic book characters used to get on my nerves but to be honest if the actor is talented enough it can work...Chris Evans made it work.

Evans has no competition.

FF
FF2
Scott Pilgrim
The Losers
CA
Avengers
CA2
Avengers 2
CA3 (most likely)
Avengers 3 (most likely)

Evans is cool. t: I was surprised how good he did portraying Captain America, especially in The Avengers, felt like he upped his game since The First Avenger.

I found some Lobo artwork for the cancelled PS2/Xbox game. Artwork done by Simon Beasley.

 

[Brian Braddock]

Used to love the Biz's work but looking back at it I realise that it was mostly style over substance; he could produce a kick-ass painted splash page or cover but not much else really. Doesnt know the meaning of the words 'subtle' or 'restraint'.

 

[Karelia]

The soundtrack for this movie better be heavy metal madness, if it happens.

Machine Head
Fear Factory
Anthrax
Mastodon
Amon Amarth

The song "Davidian" by Machine Head used in the fan film fit so perfectly with the intro of Lobo, right away you could tell he's boss... It'd be cool to hear them use that song in the film.

This movie should be ridiculous/funny/cheesy in all the right ways.

 

[Shazam]

Wonder Woman? No.

Flash? No.

Aquaman? No.


Martian Manhunter? No.


Hey guys.....how 'bout a character that no one but comic book readers know or care about.......LOBO!!!!

 

[Karelia]

I love Lobo.

Plus the film probably won't cost as much to make as the ones you mentioned above.

 

[Ultimatehero]

Aquaman? No.

Actually... this one might happen soon, say five years time with all luck * crossing fingers*...

Taking into consideration the enormous success of The Avengers we should see a Justice League film within the next 5-10 years. Who knows if those characters will get their own film but seeing them in the Justice League should happen. Also another thing is that comic book films are the big money makers these days and Hollywood is essentially bankrupt when it comes to original ideas so of course they are gonna keep bringing more comic book characters to film. Not saying bringing all of those characters including Lobo onto film is a disaster but it is inevitable.

 

[American_Hobo]

Why are they making a movie with a character no one cares about?

If they really do make this movie, they better make it with lower budget so they don't want to lose loads of cash.

 

[HighFivingMF]

To make people care about him? A lot of movies feature characters nobody has ever heard of.

 

[Changeling]

I'm actually quite excited about this movie. The Lobo Paramilitary Christmas Special proves that Lobo can be likeable. I think hes a badass character. I wouldnt have cast the Rock but I can see why he was cast, hell do a kickass job.

What about the rumor that Lobo is going to be in Justice League? I guess Im cool with it, I liked his appearance in the animated series, but I definitely hope he isnt part of the team.

 

[Brian Braddock]

Bumping this thread.

Is this movie still happening?

No word about it being cancelled. Peyton's probably still writing it.

 

[Brian Braddock]

Cool. Just noticed that things had gone a bit quiet.

[Lobo] was [happening] for a minute, but then it kind of… just… went away. As things happen in Hollywood.

 

[SlamAdams]

AW thats too bad. (that sounds sarcastic but I am being sincere)

 

[Kevin Smith]

Wonder Woman? No.

Flash? No.

Aquaman? No.


Martian Manhunter? No.

Seems it's gonna be a while before we see the main man up there on the silver screen. Maybe we'll see him as a villain in a Justice League sequel [the the 1st one ever gets made] at some point.

 

[Lencho01]

WB once went after Will Smith for Lobo...

http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/kristen-stewart-drops-heist-thriller-441598

The studio has courted him on several projects, including on an adaptation of DC Comics’ anti-hero space bounty hunter comic, Lobo.

 

[DarkSovereignty]

And I'm sure he responded with an emphatic 'awe hell naw.'

 

[RedIsNotBlue]

Wow Will smith as Lobo. That's almost ridiculous as casting Nic Cage as Super...oh.......

Must have confidence in his Wonder Woman script.

I'm also guessing its' part of the DC Cinematic Universe because it doesn't fit in with the Vertigo line.

 

[Gee]

Insiders suggest that Fuchs will start from scratch with his own take on Lobo — an alien who works as an interstellar mercenary and bounty hunter.

Hmm...

Must have confidence in his Wonder Woman script.

I'm also guessing its' part of the DC Cinematic Universe because it doesn't fit in with the Vertigo line.

Why would it even be a Vertigo movie since he's a DC character?

 

[Fallen Angel]

Yeah you're correct but I don't see Lobo part of the main universe some reason. So I thought he might go with New Line stuff.
