NGP First Look : Jason Momoa as Aquaman!

Casting announcements have been out for months now regarding Zack Snyder's return to the DC Universe in his follow up to Man of Steel, Batman v Superman : Dawn of Justice. However, this morning we were finally given a glimpse of one of the more questionable casting choices when Snyder took to Twitter to unveil the DC Cinematic Universe's King of Atlantis :

Not quite the orange and green jumpsuit most of us we're dreading, but it's nice to see that the character is sticking to a piece of history, with resemblance to the signature1990s Peter David era look for Arthur Curry where he sported the long hair, beard and body armor more fitting for the dark look and feel originally presented in Man of Steel.

After his big screen debut in Batman v. Superman : Dawn of Justice in May 2016, Momoa will reprise the role for Justice League : Part One, slated for November 2017, followed by a solo flick, and then regrouping for Justice League : Part Two come June 2019. 

It's a bit heavy on the Khal Drogo, but I dig it. My only issue is that Momoa looks like an Aquaman that could easily take Superman or Batman, and we all know that would neverevereverevereverever happen. Ever. 

Until next time True Believers,
