Jason Momoa as Aquaman was undoubtedly one of the better parts of the s**t show that was Justice League and given how Warner Bros/DC have shown they’re much better at solo superhero outings – see Wonder Woman – than team-oriented ones, hopes remain high for Aquaman.
The film is due for release next December and early screening reactions have been positive.
However, a trailer has yet to be shown to the public, in spite of talk that one would be released last weekend.
Director James Wan, whose impressive credits include Saw, Insidious, The Conjuring and Furious 7, recently took to Twitter to address rumours surrounding the trailer's pending release. You could say it was quite a pun-derful statement.
Hey friends, I usually do my best to avoid internet noises (especially fabricated distractions) but a teaser-trailer going out this weekend was never in the books — despite what some claim. It’s not because of anyone or any nefarious reason holding it back — IT’S ME. (1/3)

I am simply not ready yet to share. This movie is filled to the gills with VFX, and the process is as slow and laborious as a sea-slug! Yes, even shots for the trailers take forever to do, and I refuse to put out anything that might be construed as subpar. (2/3)

I know it seems like nothing much is brewing above the surface, but I can assure you, we’re working nonstop under the waves 🌊 😉 (3/3)

Now we’re even more intrigued – damnit James Wan!
