Hey, it'se again, how is everyone ? I want to officially say welcome to the new month. We made it to a new month and not just any month but the last month of the year and the month Aquaman is set to debut on our big screens. So today am gonna tell you everything you need to know about the aquaman movie in hope of preparing you (and me) for the movie. Hajime
DC Comics lord of the seas is getting his own solo feature in 2018’s Aquaman. And my beloved Jason Momoa will reprise his superhero role from 2016’s Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and 2017’s Justice League for the film. So far early reviews of the movie offers only positive reviews( even the negative review has some sort of positivity in it) which makes me optimistic about the movie’s arrival. The movie is directed by Insidious and Furious 7 filmmaker James Wan. The movie Aquaman follows Arthur Curry (Momoa) as he is forced to reconcile his loyalties to the surface world with his role in the undersea kingdom of Atlantis, which has become increasingly hostile to the humans polluting the oceans. The film has a cast that includes Amber Heard, Patrick Wilson, Willem Dafoe, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Temuera Morrison, Dolph Lundgren, and Nicole Kidman.
With Aquaman hitting theaters December 21, 2018 (guess it will be the Christmas movie of the year) here is everything I know about the movie so far. The first screenings of Aquaman in late November offered plenty of reasons for fans to give thanks, with the film earning high praise from critics in attendance. Although official reviews were embargoed until closer to the film’s release date, there was no shortage of positive reviews to be found on social media ( and believe me I did not see any negative reviews) Fandango’s Erik Davis called Aquaman a “big, sprawling visual spectacle that is gorgeous, crazy, stuffed with terrific action, and a lot of fun to watch.” So did a lot of other critics which I don't care to mention.
WB released the “final” trailer for Aquaman ahead of the Thanksgiving holiday weekend (possibly in the hopes of giving eager fans plenty of time to discuss it over dinner) And there was plenty to talk about in the trailer too, which offered quite a bit more visual-effects footage and even gave audiences their first, extended look at Willem Dafoe’s character in the film.

Warner Bros. Pictures will also give Amazon Prime subscribers a chance to see Aquaman a week before the movie’s official U.S. release date. The offer lets members purchase up to 10 tickets for December 15 screenings of the film at more than 1,000 theaters around the country, across AMC, Regal, and other major theater chains. Aquaman director James Wan announced that the film had officially finished post-production on Sunday, November 4, with a post on Instagram. “After two years of consuming and devouring my every waking hour, this little indie movie is finally done,” wrote the filmmaker. “It was a monster undertaking. I can’t THANK enough the amazing post team of VFX/editorial/sound for working tirelessly around the clock — crazy-long days, 7 days a week, for many many many weeks without a day off — towards making this a unique and beautiful film. Everyone poured their heart and soul into it, and I can’t wait to share this 21st December! In the meantime, I’m gonna go take a really long nap now.” Wow two years, I hope it's good as the time spent in the movie but then again it's Jason Momoa, he is good in everything.
Just over six months before Aquaman hits theaters, Entertainment Weekly revealed a set of photos from the set of the film featuring Momoa’s Aquaman, as well as several other characters being glimpsed for the first time. Among the photos was the first look at Abdul-Mateen as David Hyde, the character who will become the aquatic villain Black Manta, gazing at the film’s version of Manta’s helmet.
Another photo featured Momoa’s Aquaman facing off with Wilson’s Orm, Aquaman’s half-brother and the film’s primary antagonist. This was the first look at Wilson as Orm.
I remember at one point in Justice League, Aquaman interacts with Mera after an undersea battle with the villain Steppenwolf (Ciarán Hinds). Before they speak to each other, Mera uses her powers to create a pocket of air around them and make conversation possible. And I was shocked, I was like he breathes underwater why create a space for air ? Being a marvel fan more, I thought I was just being a DC hater, only for me to find out later that even DC fans hated that too. It caused some intense debate among fans. This prompted some fans to wonder whether such an air bubble would need to be created every time anyone has a line of dialogue in Aquaman. This necessitated a response from the Aquaman director himself "Fret not, no ‘air bubbles for dialogue’ in my underwater world,” Wan wrote on Twitter. How the filmmaker will present undersea conversation in Aquaman remains a mystery, but apparently, we now have confirmation on how it won’t be handled. Filming on Aquaman officially ended October 21, 2017, after a five-month shoot that began in May 2017. Most of the film was shot in Australia, with significant amounts of footage shot at Village Roadshow Studios in Gold Coast, Queensland.
Now to the other side of the movie that makes you want to watch, after all, A hero is as good as his Villain. Reports indicate that Aquaman will feature multiple villains challenging the film’s titular hero for control of the seas.

Now to the other side of the movie that makes you want to watch, after all, A hero is as good as his Villain. Reports indicate that Aquaman will feature multiple villains challenging the film’s titular hero for control of the seas.
The first among them to be cast was Watchmen and The Conjuring actor Patrick Wilson, who joined the film in December 2016 in the role of Orm, the half-brother of Arthur Curry. Orm is better known to comics fans as the villain Ocean Master, a brilliant, powerful member of Atlantean royalty who frequently attempts to take control of Atlantis by any means necessary.
A few months later, actor Yahya Abdul-Mateen II was cast in the role of David Hyde, the villain who goes by the name of Black Manta in the DC Comics universe. A vicious treasure hunter and mercenary, Black Manta has proven to be one of Aquaman’s deadliest foes despite being a human. He wears a high-tech suit that gives him powerful abilities underwater, along with a massive helmet that contains an array of sensors and weapons that rival Aquaman’s own natural abilities.
As if that wasn’t enough for Aquaman to handle, Rocky IV and The Expendables actor Dolph Lundgren was added to the cast in April 2017. Dolphin is no stranger to playing comic book characters thanks to starring roles in 1989’s The Punisher, Lundgren is expected to play King Nereus in the film. Nereus is described in the casting report as the leader of the aquatic kingdom of Xebel, and “claims Mera as his own and wants to kill Aquaman.” Nereus has roots in Aquaman’s comic book adventures, too, having debuted in a 2013 issue of DC’s Aquaman series.
And helping our hero Aquaman realize his true potential will be the help of his friends and family. Starting with Academy Award winner Kidman. She was cast in the role of Aquaman’s mother, Atlanna, in February 2017. In the DC Comics universe, Atlanna was Atlantean royalty who fled the undersea kingdom and fell in love with a human lighthouse keeper. Their child’s unique genetic makeup gave him powerful abilities, and he eventually became the superhero known as Aquaman. And
Playing Aquaman’s father, Thomas Curry, will be Attack of the Clones actor Morrison. In Aquaman’s comics continuity, Thomas Curry was responsible for teaching Arthur Curry to handle his powerful abilities at a young age and keep them hidden from humanity. Oscar-nominated Spider-Man and Platoon actor Willem Dafoe is also reported to have a role in Aquaman as Vulko, the adviser to the Atlantean royal family. Dafoe was initially expected to make his debut as the character in Justice League, but his scene was cut from the final version of the film. And saving the best for the last is The Atlantean queen, Mera, played by Amber Heared who has become almost as prominent a character as Aquaman in the DC Comics universe in recent years, thanks to her water-controlling “hydrokinetic” powers and telepathic abilities.
Additional supporting cast members include Power Rangers actor Ludi Lin as the leader of the “Men-of-War,” a specialized strike force in the Atlantean army, and actor Michael as father of BlackManta father.
Well that is all I have for you today. I am excited to actually see it, I hear it's 3hrs long, that time frame is enough for me to want to see it. I know it will be awesome, maybe this will be the movie that might usher a new wave of DC movie universe in a way I have never seen before. Then again I say maybe
Till next time be a king
