Warner Bros.
Warner Bros. didnt waste any time at their session and began with the DC goods, intially showing off some behind the scenes of Shazam! and Aquaman cast and James Wan introducing a teaser with some unfinished VFX.
Essentially its a lot of Atlantis, swimming fish people, sometimes riding sea horses, and futuristic submarines. Aquaman is challenging his brother played by Patrick Wilson for the throne (sounds a lot like Black Panther) with Amber Heards Mera begging the hairy, barechested Jason Mamoa, “Unless you help us, millions will die.” The WB release is the event title this Christmas on Dec. 21 sans a Star Wars movie in the market.
Will Arnett hosted the WB session, and before the clip, was full of zingers before the clip. “Youre the best Fn Batman,” Momoa told Arnett. “Lets keep the F bombs to a minimum, The Arrested Development actor answered.
“You went from Game of Thrones to Aquaman, does it feel good to work in something thats more realistic” Arnett asked Momoa.
Momoa said “I was raised in Hawaii and raised in Iowa and that couldnt be more different than Atlantis and land,” said the actor, before sarcastically crying “No one loves me!”
Arnett:”Have you ever wanted to play a character who wears a shirt?”
When it came to introducing Patrick Wilson, Arnett said, “This is your fifth collaboration with James Wan, and I speak for everyone when I say Get a room!” Wilson emphasized that the great thing about Wan was “the characters and relationships” in his movies.
Prior to Aquaman there was a quick DC sizzle reel with bits of New Lines Shazam! specifically Zachary Levi in the suit, dancing on a Big like piano; but not enough to describe here.
