Make way Vinnie Chase, there's a new Aquaman in town.
While Jason Momoa was cast in Zack Snyder's “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” several months ago, Warner Bros. refused to reveal his role in the superhero movie.
According to veteran scooper Drew McWeeny at HitFix, Momoa has been cast as Aquaman, though the studio and Momoa have yet to confirm his role.
Momoa's role has been widely speculated as Aquaman for months, though the context of the character's appearance remained unclear. Warner Bros. is using “Dawn of Justice” as a launchpad for its upcoming “Justice League” movie, and the studio plans to set the stage by introducing Aquaman to audiences in “Batman v Superman.”
Aquaman will reportedly be upset about what the World Engine in “Man of Steel” did to the Indian Ocean,” so he'll be thirsty for revenge of some kind.
While Momoa may not have Aquaman's typical blonde locks, he certainly has the physique, having played both Conan the Barbarian and Khal Drago on HBO's “Game of Thrones.” Represented by APA and KLWGN, he most recently starred in the Sundance Channel series “The Red Road.”
Look for Momoa's Aquaman to team up with Ben Affleck‘s Batman, Henry Cavill‘s Superman and Gal Gadot's Wonder Woman when “Dawn of Justice” hits theaters on May 6, 2016.

Maybe they switched the photos of the actors being considered for the Lobo role and the ones being considered for the Aquaman role. I saw Man of Steel recently. Superman looked big (he looked bigger without the shirt compared to when he's in the suit), but it's probably going to look weird if Aquaman is towering over him. If Momoa retains his GoT bulk, he's going to dwarf Superman.
I actually think even Ben Affleck looks taller than the current Superman. I'm sure it will work out but I've always pictured Superman as noticeable bigger and bulkier than Batman and Aquaman.
