We’ve been patiently waiting for DC/Warner Bros. to give us more from the upcoming ‘Batman V Superman’ and we got a little taste with a first look at Jason Momoa as Aquaman. 

Zach Snyder, the director of the upcoming film, teased us fans with this photo of Khal Drogo Aquaman looking like the badass King of Atlantis. This is exactly what we hoped they would go with as far as Aquaman goes.

Momoa was absolutely fantastic on ‘Game of Thrones’ and in the Conan reboot. If this picture is any indication, he’ll be bringing those qualities to the screen as Aquaman.

I feel as though Aquaman was a second thought hero for much of his early run, but got totally remade in the 90’s. They added a beard, made him a little crazy, and gave him  a harpoon hand. Very cool. His run so far in the new 52 has also been great. If you haven’t read it, check it out.

Long live the king!
