Jason Momoa Possibly Cast as Aquaman

Well, it looks like Momoa will probably appear in DC's next live-action movie as the classic character!

The future is looking pretty bright for Arthur Curry, a.k.a. Aquaman. Not only will the next DC animated movie revolve around his story, but it's looking like the Justice Leaguer might appear in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice as Aquaman. There's been plenty of rumors and speculation that Game of Thrones actor Jason Momoa landed the role and, according to a previously article from Variety, a deal has been made. There's obviously no word yet on how extensive his role will be in the next movie, but it's exciting to see they're beginning to establish the cinematic version of the Justice League.

Are you happy about this potential casting news or did you really want another actor to bring Aquaman to the big screen? Don't be shy, go share your thoughts with us in the comments!

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is directed by Zack Snyder and slated to open May 6, 2016.

Update: The original Variety source is from June, It technically isn't confirmed by the studio or the upcoming movie's cast/crew and the article has been updated to reflect that. Still, it's looking likely, especially considering Momoa has danced around the topic in interviews and Snyder recently called a radio station to praise Aquaman.

I would be stoked to see Momoa play the role. He's a hawaiian born and from the same island as me!
