THR Confirms Momoa Is Aquaman

Awwwwww Yeaaaaaa!

Jason Momoa Playing Aquaman in 'Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice' - Hollywood Reporter

Wait wait wait......this is obviously as hoax as it is explicitly stated the Dothraki hate water.

@strider92: Drogo is no run of the mill Dothraki

I think he would make a fantastic Aquaman

Me gusta!

Movie keeps getting worse and worse.

AARON ECKHART or JOSH HOLLOWAY should be AQUAMAN!

JESSICA CHASTAIN should be MERA!

no, this is the first piece of bad news.

jess E is amazing (watch the social network), gal gadot was a drill instructor in the israeli military she is going to kick so much ass, ben affleck is 50 times the actor he was in daredevil, and he is having the writer of the fantastic movie argo, improve goyers script.

I'm glad you're not in charge of casting.

Yeah heard about it this morning, it should be good I hope. He was great in Stargate Atlantis and Game of Thrones.

Hmmm okay

I like the choice.

Cool. Don't see the need but whatever.

Can they please just call this movie Justice League already?

@thecannon: No.

Good enough. I've only seen Momoa in a few things and his range is one thing I question, but interesting choice, nonetheless. Very excited to see Aquaman on the big screen.

...says people that live under rocks?

It's not confirmed. Though I think he is going to be in it.

Now we just need a stand alone film.

With my man Idris Elba as Manta, Javier Bardem as Orm, and Zach Quinto as Garth/Tempest who has been a contemporary, not a sidekick.

Hope this is for real and not shenanigans

I'm...moderately satisfied. I'd prefer a lot of others but I guess this isn't terrible.

Also, this.

@justthatkid: watch skyfall, Javier would be a great Ocean Master.

@justthatkid: he's a bit more unhinged in it than ocean master would be, but there's definitely moments of Orm's manipulativity, delusion, and insanity shining through.

Unless Momoa or WB said so it's not confirmed.

and yet Momoa himself wouldn't confirm it last night on Kimmel. I'm thinking that he's just entered negotiations for the part, but no actual deal has been made. Could be wrong though and he was playing coy. lol it's funny because way back in December of last year I got a chance to ask him a question at a Con and I asked if he wanted to play a superhero or if anyone had approached him for superhero roles. He just said, "Keep watching that screen, buddy. Keep watching that screen."

He's a one dimensional actor this is hardly something to get excited about.

Momoa looks too bad ass to be Aquaman.

@extremis Aside from Aquaman, those are some sweet casting choices. Fan casts are usually terrible. Nice!!

Have you seen his new show the red road? He stretches his acting out in it. I'm not saying he's the best thing since sliced bread, but I wouldn't call him one dimensional. Sure the majority of his roles have been 1-D, but thats from type-casting. He can act.

I like the casting.

Not sure how I feel about him playing Aquaman. I have no strong feelings one way or the other, so far.

In terms of look, maybe Ryan Gosling would be a fit? *shrug*

This and

This for me so far. Once Momoa or WB say it's so, I'll believe it for real. Maybe they are just delaying the reveal but rumours have been proven false before.

Strange I see Jason more like a Namor the submariner than Arthur Aquaman but that's just me

He fits the Sea King look.
