LOBO: Michael Bay To Direct The Long-Awaited DC Comics Adaptation
Just short of two years since we last heard on anything pertaining to a Lobo adaptation, trades are now reporting that Michael Bay is being sought after by Warner Bros. to direct the film. Bay, best known for his riduculous, explody and destructive approach to blockbusters since the 90s and to date with all things Transformers at Paramount, will meet once more with Warner Bros. pending script rewrites by Jason Fuchs since his attachment in Spring of 2016. A big-screen adaptation of the long-running DC property has been in the works since around 2009 while the character itself has already made the rounds in comic books and animated properties. Roger Slifer and Keith Giffen launched the character in 1983, telling of a Czarnian alien bounty hunter and often villian who re-emerged as an anti-hero biker in the 1990s.

An adaptation of the long-running DC property, Lobo, has been in the works since around 2009 while the character itself has already made the rounds in comic books and animated properties.

[UPDATED] Mechanical Dragons Presents: LOBO Fan-Trailer
As of last year, any development on a potential adaptation of fellow DC Comics property, Lobo, fell short with the departure of actor Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. That said, I’m pretty sure that doesn’t matter much now that Warner Bros. is immersing itself more into its newly developing cinematic universe building up to its forthcoming twofer, Justice League, although the idea of bringing the character to life for the big screen is still something that some find worth experimenting with. Welp… as of this week, leave it to action film director favorite Jesse V. Johnson (see this lovely little gem from last year he put together as a tribute to Wonder Woman by CLICKING HERE) whose latest fan-trailer interpretation of the superhero nefariously known for his violent methods is now making the rounds in full on, bloody and glorious, un-PG-13-ized fashion. Actor and martial artist Jerry Trimble (The Master, Heat, The […]
