We are finally getting closer to Warner Bros. Pictures and DC Films’ upcoming new Aquaman movie makes a splash in North America and other territories. Early reactions from critics and audiences have been mostly positive for the film, with some hailing it as an important step in the right direction for the DC Extended Universe.

With the film on its way, we continue to get some exciting new looks at what James Wan is bringing to the world of Atlantis as well as some stunning new stills from the film that beautifully showcase the characters involved. For example, an incredible new photo of Jason Momoa as the titular would-be King of Atlantis has surfaced the web, and it is absolutely stunning.

You can check out the new photo down below:

Wow. This still is certainly the most stunning portrait of Momoa as Arthur Curry we have received yet. The use of the nightly ocean blue mixed with the intensity of the water and the look on his face make this one that’s worthy to frame.

Momoa has been getting positive buzz from early reactions, praising his charisma and dedication to the action scenes. It’s nice to see that he is able to find the right balance between charismatic and intimidating.

Here is the synopsis for Aquaman: 

From Warner Bros. Pictures and director James Wan comes an action-packed adventure that spans the vast, visually breathtaking underwater world of the seven seas, “Aquaman,” starring Jason Momoa in the title role. The film reveals the origin story of half-human, half-Atlantean Arthur Curry and takes him on the journey of his lifetime—one that will not only force him to face who he really is, but to discover if he is worthy of who he was born to be… a king.
