In addition to all the incredible footage from the upcoming Justice League and Aquaman films that were screened this weekend at San Diego Comic-Con, Warner Bros.’ Hall H panel provided some hilarious moments of the talent interacting with fans.

One of the most memorable moments came when a young fan asked the cast why Superman appeared to be missing from the footage, causing Jason Momoa to reply, “I’m not sure if your parents showed you the last movie, but SUPERMAN IS DEAD.”
Despite this moment being hilarious, many people took issue with the Aquaman star so bluntly dismissing the young fan’s concerns, but as you can see in the video below, Momoa eventually reconciled with the child during an autograph session later that afternoon.

The star made sure to put his hand on the boy’s shoulder and say, “Don’t worry, he’s still alive,” clearly having realized the younger fan might have been disappointed to consider one of his heroes was gone for good.
During the panel itself, Wonder Woman star Gal Gadot happily chimed in to offer her input on the situation, explaining, “We can’t say much, but if you’re a big fan of Superman you’re going to love Justice League.”
This was only one instance of Gadot attempting to assuage a young fan’s nerves, as she was also seen comforting a young girl who was crying with excitement to meet Wonder Woman herself, which you can watch here.
You can check out the newest trailer for Justice League above, and the description is included below.
In Justice League, fueled by his restored faith in humanity and inspired by Superman’s selfless act, Bruce Wayne enlists the help of his newfound ally, Diana Prince, to face an even greater enemy. Together, Batman and Wonder Woman work quickly to find and recruit a team of metahumans to stand against this newly awakened threat. But despite the formation of this unprecedented league of heroes—Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Cyborg and The Flash—it may already be too late to save the planet from an assault of catastrophic proportions.
