    That occurred to me too.

    Does Marvel now own the screen rights to Namor again? IIRC another studio held them for a time.

    That's essentially what DC tried to do with him after Zero Hour. I wonder if we will have a version closer to the one handed Aquaman.

    Too bad we can't get a "Superman & The Legion Of Superheroes" movie. :(

    I actually think Momoa sounds like a really cool choice. No he doesn't look much like the classic, blonde haired Aquaman, but he does have the commanding presence and that Warrior King From a Mythical Land vibe about him which would be perfect for the character.

    And god knows, the character could definitely stand to look a lot more badass.

    I like Momoa, so I don't mind how different he looks from the tradition character. I really don't see anything about the character that requires him to be the blonde guy from the comics, other than tradition.

    I've liked Aquaman as the Arthurian type when they've gone that route, but Momoa's take would definitely be fun if they did it well.

    I'd be fine with Momoa as Aquaman, though he doesn't really have a swimmer's physique. I'd really love to see Nikolaj Coster-Waldau in the role. And I'd prefer Momoa as Hawkman, or Lobo.

    Yeah, I had trouble at first with Cavill because he didn't have a flier's physique.

    Momoa with blond hair would look much more the part, I think.

    You asked "what's more heroic?" I gave you the definitive answer. Sorry if you don't like it.

    I don't know if I'd go that far. It's almost certain to make him look a whole lot sillier, and that's exactly what casting Momoa is supposed to avoid. :D

    Why, you've seen him blonde, completely with make-up used to accentuate it?
