Translation of Jason Momoa’s statement
“So Lobo was… I collect comics, and I don’t do it that much anymore, but he was always my favorite, and I always wanted to play Lobo, because I’m like, ‘Hello? It’s the perfect role,’” he said. “I mean, look. If they call me and ask me to play him, it’s a big yes. I didn’t get that call, so I don’t want to spread any misinformation, but if they ever call me and ask me to perform, or audition, I’m here.”
That doesn’t mean anything in itself. However, You should underline the “They Called” at the top right of the screenshot. It’s simple; studios contacted Jason Momoa for the role of Lobo.
