Who Decided That Jason Momoa Should Have Been Aquaman?

[jaklinrobert.83364]

So have the creators ever seen who Lobo is or did they just say we need aquaman to be “cool” like lobo.

[jeffbg51.13834]

I believe it was Snyder that cast him.

[Jay_Kay]

Yes, because it’s not like Aquaman was never a long-haired, bearded, brooding badass…

[jaklinrobert.83364]

He wasn’t acting anywhere near how they portrayed him in my opinion. He was more like a lobo looking for a fight. To me that’s not aquaman. Aquaman usually has a purpose to why he’s so hostile

[TornadoSoup]

I think he’s a fine Aquaman, but he could probably play an even better Lobo. And I wouldn’t say he’s outright hostile, but he’s a little headstrong, which isn’t totally out of character.

[msgtv]

I admit, it was me. I decided it.

[CynicalPink]

I was fine with him as Aquaman, but now that you’ve said that, man I wish we could have seen him as Lobo

[Kon-El-Prime]

I’m not going to lie and pretend I’m an Aquaman expert, but he felt especially “bro” to me. Especially for a dude raised in coastal Maine. Admittedly, I’m not a coastal Maine expert either.

I get why they did it but as a huge fan of Aquaman he’s not my cup of tea. Totally agree he could have killed it as lobo though.

[Carbon]

If you cast Mamoa, you instantly win in my heart.

[TheTerrificToyman]

It made over a billion dollars. Hard to argue with that.

He was destined to be Aquaman when he appeared on a show called “Stargate Atlantis”
