I think Momoa work out pretty well as Lobo though. Lobo is a pretty cheesy character, whose fourth wall breaking is meant to purposely kill any kind of dramatic tone. Kind of like Ryan Reynolds with Deadpool, some actors are just meant to play certain characters. Not only is Momoa some white face paint away from looking exactly like Lobo, the attitude is also a total match. Momoa's Aquaman who was constantly giving one liners, hanging out in seedy bars, and slugging back bottles of booze was pretty much Lobo already.

I think it would be perfect for Momoa. He's got the look, he's got the cheese, its like Ryan Reynolds and Deadpool, its like the character was made for him.
