Jason Momoa has been cast as Aquaman in Batman v. Superman
Jason Momoa has been cast as Aquaman in the Zack Snyder‘s Man of Steel sequel/Justice League prequel Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice.
Hitfix has confirmed the long rumoured casting and claims Snyder has “already finalised his designs for the character so shooting can take place soon.”
Jason Momoa played Conan in the 2011 adaptation Conan the Barbarian. However, he is best known for his television roles: Khal Drogo in Game of Thrones and Ronon Dex in Stargate: Atlantis. Momoa has been asked about the rumour for some time now, often laughing off the reports. He told fans at Bucharest comic-con last month:
“I know, Aquaman! I couldn’t even be more random for Aquaman, you know, with the blonde hair… I don’t even know where that comes from – it’s like me being… uh… Robin or something. Who pulls that out? I see that on the internet and I’m like, Aquaman? A guy like… Lobo I could see."
