We’ve known that Jason Momoa will be playing Aquaman in Batman v Superman since back in the summer, but we haven’t seen much of his appearance apart from a far-fetched hint that allegedly happened in Man of Steel. Luckily, Zack Snyder was in a tweeting mood and unleashed this look at Jason Momoa in character:

The verdict? Pretty badass looking. I’m no Aquaman fanboy, but I could take this guy seriously in the DC movie universe. You see a mix of Maori culture, the comic book influence, and a little Greek myth injection (well God of War Greek mythology, at least).
This makes the fourth reveal for the Justice League, including the big three announcement from back around Comic-Con. It might be five if those silly Tyrese/Green Lantern rumors turn out to be true. Either way, this looks like the start of a chain of teaser images that should fill out the rest of the roster for the film. What do you think of this Aquaman?
