Quotes[]
- "What's gonna be interesting is there hasn't been the technology to back up the storytelling, I guess, for Aquaman, until now. And for me, of course, I'm completely biased with James Wan, who I've done four films with -- knowing that he's at the helm and knowing what he can do and what he will do, I'll do anything with him."
- "I think the lure of Aquaman is because he hasn't been overexposed on screen. And I don't know Jason -- I can't wait to meet him. I was a huge fan even from the first episode of Game of Thrones, so I'm in -- I'm in with him, and he's gonna be fantastic."
Trivia[]
- Wilson was considered for the role of Clark Kent/Superman in Man of Steel before Henry Cavill was cast.
