Here’s a sneak peek behind the scenes at SLUMBERLAND, a new adventure story about an eccentric outlaw (Momoa) who guides a young hero (Marlow Barkley) through a secret dreamworld. Long before he met actor Lisa Bonet, known for her roles in "The Cosby Show" and "High Fidelity," Momoa already had feelings for her. The actor told Esquire in 2019 that when Bonet was starring in "The Cosby Show" throughout the 1980s, she was his ultimate childhood crush. Despite this and the fact that the two were arguably in the same celebrity circles, they did not meet until decades later.

There’s no telling if Villenuve’s Dune will make the hard science fiction of its source material palatable for a wide audience, but Momoa has had success in parts tied to beloved novels before, and there’s no doubt he’ll make Duncan Idaho into something memorable on screen. Aquaman and the Last Kingdom Speaking to Deadline, Amirpour said, “I instantly knew the elements of the story I wanted to tell. There’s a special place in my heart for an action-survival movie. I’ve always been attracted to the theme of mountain climbers who, like filmmakers, have a certain madness to them. I love genre and fantasy and in this type of survival film you’re playing with real fear.” We’ll see exactly where Wan, Momoa, and company will go when Aquaman and the Lost Kingdomhits theaters on Dec. 16, 2022.

With Aquaman expected to become another box office hit, Momoa has assured fans that he will be portraying the underwater superhero, despite rumors of him leaving DC Studios.Momoa assured everyone by saying, “I’ll always be Aquaman. Ain’t anyone coming in there and taking shit. There might be some other characters, too. I can play other things, too. I can be funny and savage and charming.”

But does the cult-classic Mario Bava sci-fi film about spaceships haunted by mysterious alien lifeforms fit into the underwater superhero aesthetic of Aquaman? Wan thinks the fans will roll with it. The full cast list has yet to be announced. But there have been some updates related to who might be appearing in the anticipated DC sequel.
