'Aquaman' Is Going To Blow People’s Minds Says Writer, Will Beall

As such, 2017 is a huge year for the DCEU, as Wonder Woman and Justice League attempt to turn things around and get Warner Bros.’ cinematic universe back on track. One of the ways they’ll be doing this is by lightening the tone, which is something that all of the studio’s future DC efforts will also be looking to do. That includes 2018’s Aquaman, which is now gearing up for production and might just end up taking everyone by surprise.

It’s no secret that the titular hero has always been a bit of a joke in the comic book world, but with director James Wan promising to deliver a very different take on Arthur Curry, that could very well change by the time the film swims into theatres. In fact, if writer Will Beall is to be believed, Aquaman may just blow our minds when it arrives.

He said “It’s going to be fun, it’s going to be really fun. What we’ve come up with and James especially he has a really clear idea of the tone he’s going to have, and I think Aquaman is one that’s going to blow people’s minds, not just visually, but I think the story and the scope of it is really great.”
