This is an ancient meeting place called The Council of the Kings that’s fallen into ruin. It’s not in Atlantis (so we still haven’t seen that yet — it wasn’t in Justice League either) but on the outskirts.
1) When Atlantis sank into the ocean, it split into Seven Kingdoms. Each statue you see in the distance represents one of the original kings.
2) The Atlantean army on the right ride great white sharks into battle. “When you see these Atlantean army riding these sharks, it’s so photo-real it blows you away,” producer Peter Safran says.
3) King Nereus of the kingdom of Xebel and his men ride sea dragons. Director James Wan wanted to create these fearsome creatures, Safran notes, as a way of subverting the comic image of Aquaman riding a seahorse.
4) On the center right, you can see Orm astride his massive alligator-like “tylosaur.” Behind him, Vulko (Willem Dafoe) has mounted a giant black hammerhead shark.
Thanos would give a thumbs up to Aquaman antagonist King Orm.
Patrick Wilson, who plays Arthur Curry’s regal Atlantean half-brother in the upcoming DC film, gave EW some intriguing insight on the character.
“He’s kind of an eco-warrior,” Wilson says. “He’s got a very clear gripe with the surface world, which has been polluting his oceans for centuries. And that’s something for me — I’m sure for you too — that’s very easy to understand. If somebody was just constantly polluting our air and ruining how we lived …”
The motive is a rather topical issue coming on the heels of UN chief António Guterres at the G7 summit last week warning of a “global emergency” due to oceanic pollution, noting, “Unless we change course, plastic waste could soon outweigh all the fish in the oceans … It kills marine life and is doing major harm to communities that depend on fishing and tourism.”
Well-meaning comic-book movie villains are turning into a trend. Earlier this year Black Panther antagonist Erik Killmonger (Michael B. Jordan) was sympathetic in his goals to fight racial inequality. Last month, the blockbuster Avengers: Infinity War had Thanos (Josh Brolin) endeavoring to kill off half the population in the universe due to overpopulation concerns.
In Aquaman, Orm seeks to unite the seven underwater kingdoms to declare war on the surface world (that’s us), an idea that doesn’t sit well with Curry (Jason Momoa).
Wilson is a frequent collaborator with Aquaman director James Wan, who he worked with on the Insidious and The Conjuring franchises. One interesting thing about his casting is that with his blonde Anglo clean-cut features Wilson looks like a traditional Aquaman, while star Momoa resembles the type of actor who typically gets cast as the heavy.
Wan says he tapped Wilson because Orm isn’t an outright villain, he wanted an actor the audience would like — plus he just loves working with the guy.
“Patrick is such a talented actor and a chameleon as well, he can disappear into any role,” Wan tells us. “Orm’s got a soft spot for his brother who lives on the surface world and if anything just wants him to rule Atlantis and the world together, but his brother doesn’t see it that way. A lot of the clashes they have stem from their different upbringings. So I didn’t want to cast a typical villain actor.”

Yep, c'est bien appréciable, et j'apprécie particulièrement le fait d'annoncer à l'avance le moment de la révélation du trailer. Cela donne un rendez-vous, et évite la surprise parfois à contre-temps.
'Aquaman' will center on Aquaman as a reluctant ruler of the underwater kingdom of Atlantis who is caught between land dwellers that are always polluting the globe and his own people who are ready to invade the surface.
