There aren't so many details about "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" that come from the actual people behind the much-awaited superhero film. More often than not, it is the rumor mill that does all the work. Even the trailer is yet to be seen, making fans clamor for its release even more. But after giving fans a glimpse of what Wonder Woman looks like in the film, Director Zack Snyder has finally given fans another tiny peek into the movie.
In a new still released by the "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" director, Aquaman looks fierce, vicious and ready for battle. "There is only one true king," Snyder captioned the photo that shows the underwater royalty with his trident. Aquaman looks menacing with his grim look, classic armor and tribal tattoos.
The King of Atlantis, who is more menacing and strapping then ever, is portrayed by 35-year-old actor Jason Momoa, the ever brutal Khal Drago in "Game of Thrones." Although his role may not be that huge in "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice," fans will see more of Aquaman in a new movie of his namesake that will come out in 2018.
Meanwhile, a new tagline was also superimposed on the photo — "Unite the Seven." This likely pertains to the assembly of the superheroes that will make up the Justice League, hence "Dawn of Justice."
The lineup includes Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Cyborg, The Flash and, according to CNET and Screen Crush, Green Lantern. The first six were already announced and the latter is likely the fitting one to complete the lineup. Warner Bros. is working on a "Green Lantern" movie set to be released on June 19, 2020.
Screen Crush suggested that the tagline could also be hinting at the seven relics of Atlantis namely Seal of Clarity, the Atlantean Manacles, The Key, the Atlantean Helm, the Teleportation Globe, the Scepter of the Dead King, and Aquaman's Trident of Neptune.
"Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" will hit theaters on March 25, 2016.
