Are the Tides at DC Turning on Jason Momoa’s Aquaman?
James Holden Has DC decided that Aquaman is washed up? Jason Momoa recently addressed reports that Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom might mark his last time picking up a trident as the King of Atlantis . In an interview with ET Online, Momoa said that while he doesn’t necessarily want the movie to end his journey with the character, he doesn’t think it’s “really, like, a choice.” After all, the actor acknowledged that James Gunn and Peter Safran want to “start their own new thing up” with the DC Universe. “The truth of it is, I mean, if the audience loves it, then there’s a possibility,” Momoa reflected. “But right now, I’m like … it’s not looking too good.” Still, he noted that he “definitely” considers Warner and DC to be his home, and would love to a part of their world if there’s a place for him … which to be fair, we wouldn’t expect him to say anything else while literally on a press tour for an Aquaman movie. Still, Momoa certainly seems to be trying to prove his love for the role, even recently telling Stephen Colbert that he wrote a 50-page treatment for Lost Kingdom. Maybe Momoa just needs to start writing another pitch for another movie? If it still doesn’t work out, he could always start an ex-DCU support group with The Rock and Henry Cavill.
