Nicole Kidman is suiting up for Aquaman.
Kidman will be playing the mother to Jason Momoaâs Arthur Curry, aka Aquaman, Queen Atlanna.
âThe reason why I love [Aquaman] is James Wan is an Australian, and Iâve followed his career since he started. Heâs a really good friend of mine, and he offered to let me play Queen Atlanna,â Nicole Kidman told EW.com. âAs soon as he said I could wear mother-of-pearl and be a mermaid warrior, I said Iâm done. Please. If there is one thing I have to do in my life, I have to be that. [Laughs] Because, youâve got to have some fun.âÂ
As noted, Aquaman isnât Nicole Kidmanâs first venture into the world of DC as she played Bruce Wayneâs girlfriend, Dr. Chase Meridian, in 1995âs Batman Forever.Â
Aquaman has a December 21, 2018 release also starring Amber Heard as Mera, Willem Dafoe as Nuidis Vulko, Patrick Wilson as Orm the Ocean Master, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II as Black Manta, with Temuera Morrison rumored as the father, Thomas Curry.
