About two hours ago saw Batman Vs. Superman director Zack Snyder take to Twitter to release the first official look at Jason Momoa as Aquaman.
Fans have responded enthusiastically by getting both “Jason Momoa” and “Aquaman” trending worldwide on Twitter and “Zack Snyder” trending on Facebook.
Momoa will play the King of the Seven Seas next March for Snyder in Batman Vs. Superman followed by the Justice League movie in 2017 and the solo Aquaman movie in 2018.
It’s also hoped the Batman Vs. Superman trailer may be released as early as next week.
Check out the tweet from Zack Snyder, Jason Momoa’s Instagram post, and tweets and posts from Aquaman fans:

Jason Momoa is the only dude who can bring a little bit of bad assery to Aquaman. This coulda been so bad with the wrong casting

Aquaman is looking badass. Really hope Khal Drogo (Jason Momoa) pulls this off.

Looks amazing. Makes so much sense. Also he looks like he can kick Batman’s, Superman’s, and Wonder Woman’s ass. Not saying he can, just that he looks like he can.
