While getting ready
for the second season of Sundance TV's The Red Road, Jason Momoa offered some
insight on Zack Snyder's Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, the Aquaman
surprise poster, action scenes, Man of Steel, and the character's potential.
First off, Momoa addressed
the surprise poster that caught everyone off guard, including by the sound of
it, the actor himself.
That was a shocker
for sure. It was supposed to be a surprise in 2016, so it definitely helps [our
show]. I’ve been holding that secret for a long time. Zack Snyder called me up
and said, ‘I’m posting this picture now.’ He’s just a genius and I love him to
death. He sent it over and we’re in the middle of the editing suite for the
thing I’m doing right now, and we all freaked out, man. It was so amazing to
see it come out.
With Aquaman only scheduled to
hit theaters in 2018, chances are that he will only have a cameo in Batman v Superman
and not m much else.
No, we haven’t done too much on the action yet. You know, Justice
League is still quite a ways away. But I’m looking forward to it. Henry’s
a sweetheart, Ben is a badass, so I’m really looking forward to when we all
shoot Justice League.
The actor elaborated on the subject, and humbly stated that the film is all about Ben Affleck's Batman, and Henry Cavill's Superman.

Well, it’s Batman and Superman, it’s not my movie.
It’s the first time in history to have them both on the screen together, and
I’m just excited to see those two up there.
Momoa also spoke of the
supposedly Aquaman tease in Man of Steel.
Well, you know, I
think that’s left for the genius of Snyder to kind of reveal that. There’s
definitely a plan in this whole universe that he’s designing, and it’s amazing
to be a part of it. I think everything that you see that is building, there’s a
purpose behind the whole plan. So I wouldn’t want to take anything away from
Zack, because he loves revealing all those things. And… you never know, man.
And finally the actor
spoke of Aquaman's potential and why Conan the Barbarian didn't work out.
The whole mythology of Aquaman is pretty amazing. There’s so many things to
tell, and there’s a whole backstory that’s just amazing. There’s a lot of
surprises coming. I think, yeah, he’s been cast aside. But, um [laughs] times
are going to change now, buddy. Conan was really hard, because you have 15
different types of fans and so many things to respect and honor. To do it right
it’s got to be bloody-bloody-bloody-bloody-bloody, and not a lot of people go
see that anymore. It’s not the ’80s anymore. It’s a really hard format. We
busted ass, but there were a lot of cooks in the kitchen on that one. What’s
great about this is Zack, man. We don’t want to just reinvent it, but he’s a
got a whole idea of what Aquaman should be and I’m really honored to be playing
it. I’m excited for
the world to see it.
