PREACHER Star Graham McTavish Has A Secret Role In AQUAMAN But Who Could He Be Playing?

Aquaman is still shooting in Australia ahead of its release next Christmas and another major casting addition has now been made in the form of The Hobbit's Graham McTavish. Who is he playing, though?

There's an awful lot we don't know about Aquaman and there's a very good chance we won't learn more for quite some time, especially as so much work will need to be done on special effects and the like. Now, another major casting addition has been made in the form of Graham McTavish, an actor best known for starring in the likes of The Hobbit and Preacher (as the villainous Saint of Killers).

As you can see below, there's no word on who he will be playing and the identity of the character "has to be secret" for the time being. Could this be because we'll first meet him in Justice League? Geoff Johns recently made it clear that Warner Bros. is dialling back on a shared universe so chances are that won't be the case but you never know (his voice would be very well suited to someone like Darkseid).

The actor is clearly excited regardless and it sounds like there are big plans in place for his Aquaman role. Do you have any theories about who he might be playing? A villain seems likely but is far from guaranteed and there really are any number of characters he could be in the running for in the movie.

Delighted to be able to announce my involvement in #Aquaman. Character has to be secret....for now. It's going to be awesome! @wbpictures

Take off his beard and make him the real Lex Luthor.

This guy has played some of my favorite characters in video games. Lazaravic in Uncharted 2, Bertrand in inFAMOPUS 2, Charlie Cutter in Uncharted 3, and then the great Saint of Killers in Preacher. Yeah bring him on Board to Aquaman. This guy is too good

@gmoney0505 - He also voices Dracula in the Netflix Castlevania series. Good times

rabid - 10/9/2017, 12:10 PM

The Dead King, sure.
But sooner or later, they need to cast Metron!

TRexx21 - 10/9/2017, 2:37 PM

@rabid - OOOO, that'll be fun

He's either Orms father. Or Mera's father who originally sent her to Atlantis to kill Arthur.
