As the summer blockbuster season is in full effect, one of the biggest mysteries is the status of Aquaman. The film has yet to have a trailer released and fans have been wondering if this film will continue the bad trend of the DCEU. However, there are folks within Warners that feel differently.
EW recently spoke to those involved with the film about their reactions. Everyone quoted in regards to Aquaman have all positively stated that the film is an incredible feat, and that James Wan’s film is poised to get the DC Extended Universe back on the right track. Toby Emmerich stated,
“James has done an incredible job with his team,” “The film is taking you to a different place and imagining the underwater world in a way you haven’t seen before.”
Geoff Johns, former president of DC Entertainment who wrote spent years writing Aquaman comics, commented and stated that Wan’s vision is exactly what this character needs, citing bright colors and underwater sequences as some of the film’s strongest highlights.
“The underwater stuff has never been executed like this before,” “The visual effects shots coming in are just beautiful. James can switch modes from horror to big bright colorful action to really emotional scenes. He’s so able to hit all these different genres.”
The positive feed back by Johns may be with this DC fan needed to create excitement for a film that up this point has lacked any kind of anticipation.
