From Trejo's Twatter.
>>
wow, I... oddly hope he's mostly CG because Trejo is really getting up in age. Maybe if this released the time Machete did he might pull it off but the man is over 70. Not so much I doubt him and more I don't want this acting role to kill him
>>
Now I'm actually hype
>>
In a solo film or what?

>>79130647
Nubo is almost entirely being phased out. In his most recent appearance he was clearly styled like the old version or at least transforming into him.

This would be good casting if he was like twenty years younger. Has anyone seen Machete Kills? he's way too old.

okay he's old but so is trejo

U wot? Just get any young dude who can pull off a biker look and then paint their face.

Unless he's actually completely CG or something and Trejo is just the voice. Then it might work.

But he is tho. Or at least his mom is.

Not surprising. Nobody liked him and nobody wanted him and the easiest way to deal with a poorly received change to a character like that is to quietly pretend it never happened.

Trejo is already IRL Lobo, who else would you cast.

Shoulda gone with Momoa for Lobo instead of Aquaman.

>>79130835

He's gonna show up in the post-credits scene, right? It'll be fast to shoot.

In what possible way?

>>79130900
in white makeup with a big rockin lobo wig and beard, and costume, yes.
he's the largest jew in captivity! you don't want your lobo tall?
>>79130905
well he has some of the look

But who would contract the main man? And if true, kudos for using the lobo we love and not nubo

He posted a picture of Lobo. How is this confirmation of a casted role?

It'd be cool for the end-credits scene to be Lobo being contracted by some mysterious big bad to hunt down the Justice League. I can see it happening.

Either we've read very different Lobo comics, or we're not talking about the same Danny Trejo.

Lobo doesn't have a face like a scrunched up orange, for one. Nor does he have a sloppy-prison-style physique.

He appeared recently in Batman/Superman and he pretty much was a lot more like his older self.

If you mean Nubo he was what Lobo would be if he was made today. He sucked by sheer virtue of the fact that he wasn't the old Lobo.

Gonna be honest though Slobo/Lobo/Nubo all being seperate characters in the new52 sharing a team up book would be GOAT.
>>
Ok for the sake of argument lets say Lobo was going to be a part of the DCEU, how would he fit? Contracted by Brainiac to retrieve superman considering hes the last kryptonian?>>79131062

The 2014 reboot of Lobo was a reboot that felt like it was taking it was taking him seriously as a younger, prettier, more generic character

He eventually became a lot less sane and ridiculously violent like the original Lobo but it took 12 issues of what was practically filler and a drug-induced rage to get to it

After today, I have fully converted to DC. I've given up on the MCU

That was clearly more because everyone got pissed about the new direction.

Essentially Nubo was meant to be a slight parody of modern characters the same way that the original Lobo was but they did a really fucking shitty job with it.

Personally, I feel it may have been trying to do the DmC set up, which reboots as a new, "more modern" character's origins (nu-Dante as a young scrappy punk/nu-Lobo as a bishie bounty hunter) but eventually grows into a character much like the old one (white haired demon killer/insane bounty hunter)

Of course, anything that can be compared to DmC in execution should be considered a sloppy mess and can be ignored entirely, and are basically frivolous when you realize it's basically parading as a new character but really isn't

don't get me wrong, he's awesome but too bad he's a manlet and old as fuck. Lorenzo Lamas is a better choice

>>79132236
Well, that remains to be seen. What I can confirm however is that DC Films photo came from a verified facebook page that was created today but one that is official and not fan made. It's emergence might have happened now considering the purchase of Legendary Pictures (which was a significant production firm of all DC movies as far back as Begins) by a Chinese group late last week, or maybe just because WB/DC are shouting from the roof top this week that they are here, and that we should get used to them. Whether this be a move on WB's part to allow a bit of autonomy on DC's part, or one to confirm the official designation meant to compete alongside the MCU, it is seemingly something enough significance to not be dismissed.

That's kinda racist. That's kind of really really racist. I'm honestly a little shocked. This is a new low I think. There could not possibly be an explanation for this beyond whatever dipshit director using word association.

I'm not dogging on Trejo, he's great... But FUCKING WHY?! What fucking person that has EVER read more than one Lobo comic would ever pick him to play the role of Lobo?!

The movie industry has been spinning it's wheels in a desperate fit for years trying to make itself relevant again and it couldn't be any more apparent that the people making aren't doing anything beyond throwing darts at a list at this point. Jessica Jones? Really? I'm sure that was a big risk, that Jessica Jones fan base can be pretty vicious.

Fuck Hollywood and fuck the big two, I'm glad all three are dying and I can't wait for time to naturally pass long enough for them to pathetically fizzle out. Good fucking riddance.

So i got an idea.

Lobo is a homicidal sexist rude asshole who kills people for a living, is fuck all big, and smoike cigars.

There was an option i suggested for deadshot where an actor FAMOUS for playing an asshole cigar smoking killer and gun nut (cigar smoker and gun nut he is in real life).

He's over 50, but a few months at the gym, hair dye, make up, and he'll be AS intimidating as the other DC guys, plus he's still playing action roles on tv.


Adam Baldwin.

i wasnt even that big a fan of firefly but i liked his character in that, chuck, and as mother fucking animal mother from full metal jacket.

>>79134060
I really have no clue what you're talking about, are you saying I didn't read Jessica Jones? Why? Even if I hadn't read it, it wouldn't change the fact that the original Alias maxiseries was extremely influential and happens to be heavily connected with both Luke Cage and Daredevil. It was a really easy and obvious choice for a Netflix show.

I can see your point with him being old but since most things he does are over the top and require CGI anyway I don't see the problem. Also why should you not cast someone just because they're typecast? Being typecast just means you're already good at that kind of role.

>>79134063

>>79134237
I keep trying to read the stuff you're saying about Netflix but I feel like we're speaking different languages so I'm just gonna let it go.


Well, the thing to consider about Trejo is that he was typecast as the scary Mexican biker criminal guy because he was that for years before becoming an actor. He didn't just play that role so well, he's not even technically acting if you think about it.

Maybe he'll really do an amazing job as Lobo and it will become his best known role. What do I know, maybe he's been reading Lobo comics since he was a kid and asked for the role.

But, if they approached him and he just said "sure why not?" before emitting his trademark chuckle, then I'm going to reserve my right to be offended at the inexplicable casting choice.

The way I've always explained it is that Lobo is not a character.

There is nothing interesting about Lobo. He's a caricature of an archetype. He is satire incarnate. Anything that may have been interesting about him was squashed as his other traits were blown out of proportion.

You don't read a Lobo comic for the characters. You read it for jokes, action and sometimes good, old fashioned heavy-metal-magazine gore. There's also a cool/badass factor to it, but if it was only that, it would get old really quick.

It could even be argued that no one actually likes the character of Lobo, they like the hyperviolent, absurdly comedic tone that comes along as a necessity of writing him.

I'd agree with this, I like Lobo for the crazy violence and weird aliens. It's some funny shit. Lobo himself is about as one dimensional as it gets.

He's an alien that killed his entire race for the fun of it. He kills almost everyone he meets for no real reason. He has a chip in his head that plays the same heavy metal song over and over. He never goes back on his word and he has a soft spot for space dolphins. That's about it.

>I mean look at him.
You know actors get in shape when the role remands it, just look at Hammil

Hamill's 64 and went from chubby to slim.

Trejo's 71 and would need to turn himself from dumpy Mexican grandad to prime Arnold Schwarzenegger to do Lobo justice.

People have been waiting years for a Wonder Woman movie. Deadpool is flavour of the month with normies who don't read comics.

He could wear this exact outfit and pull off a better Lobo than Nubo.

He's a pretty good voice actor, and face swapping technology has reached new heights from what we've seen in the new movies (Heck Iron Man 3 had a lot of scenes shot with a body double for Tony Stark with RDJ's face being super imposed on post). Even so, Trejo is a fucking bad ass, there's nothing make up and post can't fix when trying to hide his age (In fact, I don't think they should hide his age).

>Marketing will be godawful.
Soo' Side Skwad says otherwise, they're hitting all the right notes to rope in meme faggots from 9Gag and True Film Patricians from /tv/

I agree, you don't need to do that, lobo is a fucking alien he doesnt need to look like a 30 something human

DC isn't marvel, they don't give a shit about hardline lefties like sjw's and shit like that. At the very least, no more than any other for-profit company.
Now a few of their writers? Sure I agree there. But a writer or two doesn't make up all of a company. For better or worse. Marvel is fucking pathetic as caving to Internet uber-liberals, DC barely seems to give a shit. I don't know it's just how often they reboot, or what, but it seems like DC doesn't try to be as...I don't know the word for it, present-pandering? Okay I've got an example, I've never seen a single gamergate reference in DC. But low and behold, fem-Thor had a gag-line thrown in called "Its about ethics and accountability in hammer bashing" or some shit like that. That's tasteless and pathetic as fuck. Might as well print literal begging for attention on the page instead. It's about as subtle. I can only assume DC avoids this because their continuity is fluid, so they don't have to hammer in (budum-tsh) new characters with WHOA GET A LOAD OF THIS CRAZY CUCUMBER OVER HERE, LOOK AT THAT NEW WHATCHAMCALLIT!
Because they do that with their continuity every 3/4 of a decade already. It's far from perfect, it's treading on decent, but it's no where near the shear transparency of a fuckibg blatant gamer-gate reference in a uber-pro-female comic that's already dripping with poorly written pandering bullshit. God that run was/is ridiculous. Insulting to cancer patients too. Fucking Jesus what were they thinking.
