SPOILER WARNING: Here's What 'Aquaman' Gets Up To In BATMAN v SUPERMAN

Following the reveal of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice's Aquaman by director Zack Snyder last night, we now have some details on the role that the King of the Seven Seas will play in the movie, and it sounds minor to say the least. Hit the jump for all of the spoilery details...

Badass Digest have a piece up looking at the possible meaning behind that "Unite The Seven" tag on the Aquaman character image released by Zack Snyder last night (the popular theories are that it either refers to the seven members of the Justice League or the Seven Seas), but they also drop some interesting Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice details. In the shooting script they claim to have seen, Aquaman has only a very small role, making it all the more surpising that an official look at the character would be released over a year before the release of the movie itself.

The site reveals that "Aquaman is barely even present, showing up only in a survey of metahumans by Lex Luthor and then again at the very ending, when Batman recruits him for the Justice League." They add that The Flash also has only a very small role, something we've heard a number of times in the past. What's interesting about this information (if true) is that Lex Luthor will know of the world's superpowered individuals - using him to introduce them to moviegoers makes sense - and that it's Batman who puts together the Justice League. What do you guys think?

as far as Aquaman making a very short appearance .... this is exactly what I expected and I'm sure most agree. Lex being the one to introduce the audience to our other heroes should be pretty interesting.

I would greatly prefer this. I don't want the movie to be bogged down by too much Aquaman, Cyborg, and The Flash goings on. Just a taste of what's to come.

By "survey", they really mean an index. Context clues, guys.

kinghulk - 2/20/2015, 12:02 PM
im more interested in how cyborg will appear. i was thinking a cameo football game at the start, then before the final battle him signing autographs before getting in a car and driving off, then in the final battle he saves some kid after his car get's stopped and get's badly injured and then an end credits scene showing him waking up as Cyborg.

Devin Faraci? What's Eh Maybe also got to say?

Don't trust a word Faraci says. Dude rides Marvel Studios, hates DC, and thinks Jared Leto is a terrible actor.

He is less than a douche than Eh Maybe.

Let's stop calling him Aquaman. I'm going to just refer to him as AquaMomoa

With Lex knowing lots of meta-humans, I wonder if he will make an Everyman type program. In the comics he helped give different powers to take on the JL. If I remember correctly the name he gave the team was Infinity Inc.

Nobody knows a damn thing about this movie besides the people involved.

If they did, they would know when a script is real and when it's fake.

So it's Batman that's going to Unite The Seven. Cool idea of Lex having the info on all of the super powered beings already.

I like the look of Aquaman a lot and think it will translate to film very well. Not sure I am a fan of Lex Luthor knowing all meta humans etc. -- seems weird. Then again, having a hard time thinking of this guy as a threat

Maybe when it comes to Marvel.

When it comes to DC he is terrible.

I'm very interested in seeing Jesse's take on Lex. Seems like an inspired casting decision
