Published on casting call site Acting Auditions, the new synopsis is only two sentences long, followed by a list of the stars as well as the names of those involved behind the camera. The rest of the post covers the requirements for actors applying to appear in the film. Here’s the synopsis:
>‘Aquaman’ will center on Aquaman as a reluctant ruler of the underwater kingdom of Atlantis who is caught between land dwellers that are always polluting the globe and his own people who are ready to invade the surface.
A second variant can be found at the very bottom of the page:
>Aquaman is the King of the Seven Seas. This reluctant ruler of Atlantis, caught between a surface world constantly ravaging the sea and Atlanteans looking to lash out in revolt, is committed to protecting the entire globe.
Aquaman, due for release in October 2018, will be a whole new look at the King of Atlantis, with Jason Momoa in the titular role. Momoa will be joined by Amber Heard as Mera, Nicole Kidman as Atlanna, Willem Dafoe as Nuidis Vulko, Patrick Wilson as Orm, Temuera Morrison as Thomas Curry, and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II as Black Manta. Directed by James Wan
Luis Sullivan
Why bother? DCEU won't even survive justice league

>‘Aquaman’ will center on Aquaman as a reluctant ruler of the underwater kingdom of Atlantis who is caught between land dwellers that are always polluting the globe and his own people who are ready to invade the surface. isn't this always the plot of Aquaman?
I know it's just the synopsis, but it's like saying >'Superman Film' will centre on Superman as the jettisoned son of a destroyed planet who is caught between those who are afraid of his powers and a threat from out of this world >'Batman Film' will centre on Batman as the orphan son of a wealthy family who has taken to crimefighting to avenge his parents' deaths
Angel Harris
maybe aquaman will finally get people to take global warming seriously
Joseph Nguyen
Synopsis =/= plot
Aaron Green
Will he give a speech to the audience about how important it is to not pollute the seas?
Isaac Scott
>Willem Dafoe I can get around this
Elijah Nguyen
Good actors Good director
Hopefully the writing will be at least decent and we might have a pretty good DC movie on us finally.

how many numales is this movie going to trigger
i thought BvS was maximum numale triggering material, but Aquaman might surpass it
Sebastian Cox

Calling it now - this movie will not be made
Jeremiah Thomas
I doubt it, even if JL bombs Momoa's Aquaman is likely to be loved
Justin Edwards
Sounds like the climate of the movie is a bunch of eco terrorists (Atlanteans) clamoring to kill oil workers and fishermen. Aquaman is the one holding them back. So, in essence, dis b da next donald drumpf of superhero movies. Even though in the end both sides will be in the wrong. That won't matter to numales though.
Oliver Baker
the DCEU has an unparalleled ability to trigger numales, redditors, and plebians
Camden Ramirez
What did he mean by this?
Underrated underdog, that's just misunderstood? Or a complete pile of garbage, and a hackjob?

Why do people keep going on about nu males when its talking about fucking aquaman
Michael Cruz
you stupid fucking should've-been-aborted cucks are even remotely concerned about this much less going to possibly see it?
Every episode of South Park that talked about shoveling shit down your throat. Every bleat of Howard Beale. All of it.
Fucking you get what you pay for, so if you pay for it, open and slide that 12.3 Couric turd down your gullet.

Owen Mitchell
>ywn be in Aquaman's band and rock the depths of Atlantis Why even live bros
Aaron Myers
They should pull a Universal if they want to survive the coming onslaught of cinematic universes past 2018. It would be absolutely saturated by then.
David Thompson
>Horror director doing an undersea adventure My biggest hope for the DCEU desu. I believe Wan said somewhere that he was looking to bring a Lovecraftian feel
Jonathan Lewis
Is this a hint that his theme will incorporate the electric guitar too? He looks like a heavy metal character so I'd be cool with it.
