Other than Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman, Aquaman is the only member of the Justice League to so far be officially revealed by Warner Bros. His appearance has divided fans though, with some understanding the need for a contemporary take on the widely ridiculed character’s classic costume, and others wishing he looked a little less Game of Thrones and instead shared more similarities with his comic book counterpart.
We will, of course, get a good look at Aqauman when he makes his presence felt in Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice next year, but Jason Momoa has now revealed some surprising details about his costume, which were missed in that moodily lit first image.
[zergpaid]Talking at The Joshua Tree International Film Fest, Momoa confirmed that the suit Aquaman will be wearing in the DC Extended Universe is definitely going to pay homage to the source material, and even dropped some hints about the character’s motivations.
“Well, there might be some bit of orange and green. A bit of respect to prior work, but I think he is meaner now and upset – look at what has been done to our oceans. That’s his world that has been polluted.”
Of course, there’s nothing to say that Aquaman’s costume in Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice will be his final look, especially as he may update his outfit after spending time on the surface world. Either way, it’s good to know that the costume is going to feature at least some green and orange, while his relationship with his fellow heroes should be very interesting (especially if he blames them for damaging the oceans).
