Action scenes from the film were shown at an early sneak peek in China. The initial reaction suggests that those fight scenes are going to be something to behold.

Aquaman is directed by James Wan and follows Jason Momoa's debut as Aquaman in 2017's Justice League, directed by Zack Snyder. Speaking to ComicBook.com, Wan discussed the importance of putting his own touch on Aquaman while also staying true to the foundation built in Justice League.

"It was very important for me early on to be allowed to make my own film and to have my own voice be in there," Wan said. "After Furious 7 and Conjuring 2, I didn't want to be a director for hire. After Furious 7, that's kind of who I was to some degree, but after that, I don't want to be that guy again. So, it was very important for me to be able to bring my own stamp, my own visual aesthetic, create the characters. Even though Jason has somewhat been established Justice League, I wanted to bring his character into this, basically, fresh in a lot of ways.

"So it was important for me to obviously pay a respect to where he was left off in [Justice League], but then allow me the freedom to take him to where I want to take him at the end of the movie. My hero goes on this hero's journey to become someone very different than where he started. That was something that was very important for me. But the movie I want to make, that I was allowed that freedom to do that."

Wan isn't ready to stop there though. He's already hinted that he has some ideas for where sequels could take Arthur Curry.

"There's definitely stories, even within the world we've created, that you can actually see other storylines [spinning off from] as well," Wan told Total Film magazine. "There's the Aquaman story, but then there's the stories of the seven different kingdoms as well. I think those would be very fun to explore."
