SPOILER WARNING: The next article contains juvenile spoilers for Aquaman. If you have not yet seen the film, retrieve at your own risk!
As it exists, James Wan's Aquaman offers fans dynamite live-action adaptations of two of the titular hero's key antagonists: Orm (Patrick Wilson) and Black Manta (Yahya Abdul-Mateen II). These iconic villains are treated skillfully in the other blockbuster, but if the movie had been made based upon prematurely drafts, they would have been joined by a few other notable comic book rogues, as I school recently speaking next the movie's writers. Asked about DC characters who flirted next making their debut in Aquaman, Will Beall explained,
There were a few Aquaman villains that appeared in a prison break sequence, but I don't think there were any other major characters.
I spoke next Will Beall, David Leslie Johnson, and Geoff Johns higher than the phone earlier this month to talk about their perform upon Aquaman, and I could help but dig deeper next I school about the prison break sequences that was vis--vis written into the movie. even if it was lonely something that was a part of the blockbuster in its archaic stages, just imagining what it could have been is no question fun to think about.
After Will Beall briefly mentioning it in his answer to my ask about including more DC characters, I followed going on asking how the prison break sequence was going to fit into the movie. Apparently it was going to squeeze in quickly after the first genuine worry with Arthur Curry (Jason Momoa) and King Orm (Patrick Wilson). Arthur was going to lose the battle and be imprisoned, and during that stint behind bars get to meet a few baddies that comic book readers would recognize. Said the writers:
Will Beall: I think quickly after, The arena of Fire, the gladiatorial arena, Arthur was going to be thrown into basically an Atlantian supermax in the bowels of the city. correspondingly he's in general population next every these hideous monsters and guys that near students of the DC universe would take as Aquaman villains. And there was a prison break.David Leslie Johnson: The guards were next shark men, and Arthur cuts one of them, and the blood drives them every into a feeding frenzy.
Those who have seen the film know that this is no question a huge change from the exaggeration that things perform out in the the end cut. even if this prematurely draft of Aquaman had the hero losing to Orm in gladiator engagement and being thrown in jail, the gather together situation ultimately tainted to see Arthur rescued at the last minute by Mera (Amber Heard), leading to a chase sequence next the duo infuriating to get out of Atlantis.
The exaggeration things perform out in the film is great, but it yet would have been great to see the prison break sequence as it had been planned -- if not just for every the teases of potential threats in the innovative of the Aquaman series/the DC lengthy Universe. As for why it wound going on getting clip from the movie, the writers handily said that it existed as one huge perform sequence too many (presumably the escape from Atlantis would have been an adjunct to the prison break). In their own words:
David Leslie Johnson: It was cool, just too much.Will Beall: We had a lot of huge sequences. That one went away lovely early.
Adding his two cents to the conversation, Geoff Johns supplementary that he thought the management taken by the script was a smart one. In his counsel it would have been unwise to no question flood Aquaman next an abundance of comic book characters, regardless of the size of their role. The movie was made to allow the eponymous superhero take middle stage, and he believes that's exactly what the film ultimately does. Said Johns,
I think that was a decision these guys made prematurely on, and I think was a smart one. They allow him, allow Arthur have his own movie.
In complement to Jason Momoa, Patrick Wilson, Amber Heard, and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Aquaman co-stars Willem Dafoe, Temuera Morrison, Dolph Lundgren, Randall Park, and Nicole Kidman, and is now in theaters everywhere.
