WATCHMAN Star Patrick Wilson Joins AQUAMAN as the Super Villain ORM
Patrick Wilson, who is best known for his roles in Watchmen, Insidious, and The Conjuring, has joined the cast of James Wan's Aquaman. According to Deadline, the actor will take on the role of ORM, Aquaman's villainous half-brother, who is also known as Ocean Master.
Wilson is a very talented actor who has been involved with a lot of great films and TV projects over the years. It's always cool to see him land a cool role like this, and I think he'll be great in the role!
It was rumored early on in development that ORM would be in the film, and I think Wilson is perfectly cast in the role. He has had a great working relationship with Wan over the years, so it's not really that surprising that Wan would find a place for him in the movie.
ORM has had multiple origin stories, but one thing that has always been consistent is the fact that he wants to take his brother's place as the king of Atlantis. As far as his powers go, ORM has superhuman strength, superhuman durability, enhanced senses, and is an expert at magic manipulation using his helmet and trident to conjure magical bolts and control water and lightning.
