Aquaman

Aquaman himself confirms that you better stay in your seat once the ‘Justice League’ credits start rolling.

‘Justice League’ is just two weeks away, but now you can watch nearly seven minutes of new footage, plus see a ton of new photos.

Dolby Cinema’s exclusive poster artwork shows the whole League (minus Superman, natch) united in a bunch of action poses on a very colorful background.

James Wan’s Aquaman hasn’t been plagued with any weird rumors or high-profile exits so far, and actually seems to be going, well, swimmingly. Wan has described the shoot as “super complicated,” even out of the water, but Aquaman seems to be in a league of its own. Which may be because it’s in practically a different world from the rest of the DCEU — or, as Wan apparently described it on set, “Star Wars underwater.”

Former Green Goblin Willem Dafoe will join the DCEU this fall when Justice League hits theaters. His Aquaman character will debut in the DC superhero team-up before filling a much larger role in James Wan’s Aquaman. And while things have been relatively quiet around Dafoe’s Nuidis Vulko and the role he’ll play in the films, the actor has confirmed that he won’t look or be exactly like his comic book counterpart.

When you’re shooting a big-budget tentpole superhero movie, it’s going to be complicated. When you’re shooting a big-budget tentpole superhero movie, half of which is underwater, it’s going to be really complicated. James Wan’s Aquaman is currently shooting in Australia, and Wan himself says it’s not an easy shoot.

The DC Cinematic Universe has been building to the arrival of the Justice League, and this November that will finally happen. To celebrate the uniting of the League, Kotobukiya is releasing a complete set of all six members of the superteam in the film. The best part is, you won't have to wait long after Justice League's release to get your hands on these fine art pieces, as they start arriving just in time for the holidays.

Before the Justice League teams up this fall, you'll be able to catch them working hard to stop Darkseid's forces in a new DC Super Heroes collection from Lego. In August, three new sets will give us our first chance to live out some of Justice League's potential action scenes in Atlantis, some tunnels, and what looks like Superman's Arctic home away from home.

One of the odd concerns of opening your cinematic universe with two of its biggest crossover events  —  Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and Justice League  —  is deciding where to place the standalone movies. Take Wonder Woman, for example. Rather than move forward in the modern era, Wonder Woman circled back to World War I to introduce the character of Diana Prince and her family history. Do you do the same thing with movies like Aquaman and Flash? Walk audiences through their origin stories and get to know some of the supporting characters in their universe? Or do you move forward after the events of Justice League and pick people up along the way?

This afternoon, director James Wan shared a new photo of Amber Heard’s Mera in Aquaman, and lo and behold, color has arrived in the DCEU at last, and we saw it, and it was good. Well, hopefully it’s good. Wan has a solid track record, and he proved his blockbuster action chops with Furious 7, but we reserve the right to remain skeptical that this, uh, splash of color (sorry) means that the DCEU will magically become a place where “fun” things happen.
