AQUAMAN Set Photo Shows Mera On The Run From Some Villainous Atlanteans

A new photo from the set of Aquaman has found its way online and it features Amber Heard's Mera running from danger - but why is it that Atlanteans are chasing down their queen? Hit the jump for details!

Many of us expected Warner Bros. to release the first trailer for Aquaman during this year's San Diego Comic-Con but with nearly a year and a half to go until the release of the movie, we probably shouldn't have been too surprising that only a snippet was shown to those in Hall H. Thanks to that, we learned that Ocean Master will have a number of Atlanteans on his side who take aim at Arthur Curry.

Mera clearly isn't going to be safe, though, as a blurry new set photo show's the character - played by Amber Heard - on the run from some villainous Atlanteans who clearly want to take her down.

Like Wonder Woman, the hope is that Aquaman will herald a new age for Warner Bros.' DC Comics adaptations but with just the one on the way in 2019 (due to Flashpoint's numerous delays), it could be some time before we learn whether or not that's worked! In the meantime, Jason Momoa's King of Atlantis will be making his presence felt in Justice League when it's finally released this November.

What do you guys think of this set photo? As always, let us know your thoughts in the usual place!

Really a shame she's such an unattractive woman :)

She would have made a perfect Jean Grey.

CaptDeadpool - 8/7/2017, 2:45 AM

@Asturgis - whoa!! As someone who is not a fan of Sophie Turner at all I gotta say I would not mind them recasting!!!

Asturgis - 8/7/2017, 2:53 AM

@CaptDeadpool - I really do not mind Turner, I think she's a very decent actress and she looks the part, I'm just not a fan of "teen X-Men". I think the whole Dark Phoenix movie isn't gonna work because that story was an adult story happening to adult X-Men in an adult world. The topics that story touched were mature, and so were its consequences. I'm not sure anyone is going to care about what happens to the characters since we only met the cast literally 2 hours ago.

CaptDeadpool - 8/7/2017, 3:27 AM

@Asturgis - there are so many other xmen stories to adapt before Dark Phoenix... They lost all momentum they had after First Class and DoFP.

Akoni - 8/7/2017, 4:35 AM

@Asturgis - Yeah, but then she would have just ended up in a bad X-Men movie.

storyteller - 8/7/2017, 6:20 AM

@Asturgis -

I think any attractive white women with dyed red hair could physically look like Jean Grey. She's not really a special looking character. The same women could play Emma Frost, Domino, Mystique, Dazzler....

That same women would have to be real special to play Destiny.

Deschain99 - 8/7/2017, 2:37 AM

Wow . . . .I mean it is funny but it isn't.

@Unites - We shall see how long this comment last . . . . . .

Deschain99 - 8/7/2017, 2:55 AM

@Deschain99 - The comment section . . . . .

Thanoice - 8/7/2017, 5:55 AM

@Unites - yea I did

Deschain99 - 8/7/2017, 1:13 PM

@JustUsLeague - Yeah, Wilding did some extensive I mean EXTENSIVE copying and pasting. Then he shreddded @MUTO123 and @SimplyAz comments pointing it out.

Thanoice - 8/7/2017, 3:20 PM

@Deschain99 - meh no use complaining.

SimplyAz - 8/7/2017, 3:21 PM

@Deschain99 -

Exactly, sometimes it's not even worth other users posting articles that are news and only letting the main editors post stuff.

CaptDeadpool - 8/7/2017, 2:44 AM

She looks amazing in this role. Thinking JL is going to be great, but definitely hyped for Aquaman!

Doomsday8888 - 8/7/2017, 2:48 AM

Bu..but...mha comment!

:P
Love you Josh, never change! <3

SmilingTRex - 8/7/2017, 8:27 AM

@Doomsday8888 - may i ask what happened ?

Doomsday8888 - 8/7/2017, 9:37 AM

@SmilingTRex -
The usual!
I noted, like many others, that someone already reported this news, and warned everybody to attention and see what will happen to that "other" article.
Suffice to say i was right, not only that other article got deleted, but so did my previous comment as well!
We all got Wilded!!! :D

SmilingTRex - 8/7/2017, 10:17 AM

@Doomsday8888 - Cool.

Thanoice - 8/7/2017, 10:46 AM

@Doomsday8888 - I know it wasn't the greatest but I was proud of that article lol

DeepBlueFischer - 8/12/2017, 3:14 PM

@JustUsLeague - Why do you guys keep letting them take ypur articles? Amd the excuse for it is piss poor at best. Especially when there's damm near always grammatical errors etc in the replacement article. How are you going to jack someone'a stuff on those grounds, and not make sure ypurs is immaculate??? Lol. I'll be damned if I let anybody walk over me.

Thanoice - 8/13/2017, 8:08 AM

@DeepBlueFischer - I didn't really have control over it. It's not like he asked me or anything lol

But as long as there's still an article so people know what's going on then I'm good. Besides I always use CBM when I report on Twitter or the podcast.... @JustUsLeaguePod

Kalel75 - 8/7/2017, 3:26 AM

I noticed in the JL Trailer that when Afred says "He said you'd be back that the reflection in the glasses is green. Anyone else seen this? BTW Amber Heard...HOT

obarium - 8/7/2017, 3:45 AM

@Kalel75 - You must not spend much time on the internet...

Kalel75 - 8/10/2017, 12:17 AM

@obarium -
I work, funnily enough gotta pay that mortgage, and I don't understand your comment, has this been solved or speculated on?

obarium - 8/11/2017, 3:33 AM

@Kalel75 - Oh yeah, people have been rabbiting on about the reflection in Alfred's glasses since the trailer dropped. You'll find a few vids on youtube about it. I don't think anything had been confirmed, I'm still on the Superman train. Superman still has a large influence on the trailers, it makes more sense that it's him.

obarium - 8/7/2017, 3:45 AM

Aquaman trailer with Justice League? I bloody hope so. I am so hyped for this film.
