New SDCC AQUAMAN Magazine Cover Features a New Look at Orm, Nereus, Vulko, Mera, Black Manta and More
Den of Geek has released the cover of their San Diego Comic-Con 2018 magazine and it gives us an awesome new look at several of the characters that will be featured in Aquaman!
This includes a first look at Patrick Wilson as Orm wearing the helmet he will be wearing in battle. Then there's our first look at Dolph Lundgren as Nereus, and Willem Dafoe as Vulko. It also includes Jason Momoa as Aquaman, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II as Black Manta, and Nicole Kidman as Atlanna.
Our AQUAMAN cover was inspired by an illustration from DC Comics artists Ivan Reis, Joe Prado, and Marcelo Maiolo. “The inspiration behind this original work was those classic comic book covers that gave the reader a look at the characters involved in the story and also hints of, and a feel for, their worlds,” AQUAMAN producer Peter Safran says. “It was commissioned by James Wan in the very early R and D stages of pre-production, as he was beginning to define the worlds in which our film would live. It was not originally intended to be a one sheet, but we all loved it so much that we had the idea to transform it into a photorealistic version and use it as a poster.”
Here's the full cover:
It was recently revealed that Aquaman will be searching for the King's Trident while simultaneously trying to stop Orm the Ocean Master's mission of invading and attacking the mainland.
This movie is going to have a huge presence and Comic-Con and it may just end up being the most buzzed about film at the convention.
Aquaman will center on Aquaman as a reluctant ruler of the underwater kingdom of Atlantis who is caught between land dwellers that are always polluting the globe and his own people who are ready to invade the surface.
Aquaman is set to be released December 21, 2018.
