It looks like Warner Bros have found their Queen of the Seas! According to a report from Variety, The Rum Diary and Drive Angry star Amber Heard is currently "in talks" to feature alongside Jason Momoa's Aquaman as 'Mera'. The site's sources claim that she'll first appear in Justice League (as previously rumored), before going on to star in James Wan's solo Aquaman feature in 2018.

Heard is a solid actress who's delivered a number of underrated supporting turns, not least in last year's Magic Mike XXL. Nothing seems set in stone at the moment, but if this casting were to go ahead, do you like the sound of it? As always, be sure to sound off with your thoughts below!

UPDATE: Did James Wan just confirm the casting himself? It seems so. The director just shared Variety's original article on his personal Facebook page. It looks like those negotiations went well...


Justice League, Part 1 hits theatres November 17, 2017.

She never really gets to do much besides being eye candy, which explains her resume. Hopefully she can deliver.

She has a nothing role in MAGIC MIKE XXL imo, just like the love interest in the first MAGIC MIKE.

She fine as hell. But her acting skills are somewhat average

@Reasonnn - I thought she was pretty great in XXL - for what she had. But yeah, she hasn't actually had much of a leading-role type career so far.

If only someone would invent a product that could change the color of hair from blonde to red. What a magical day that would be! But I guess that's just crazy talk.

Anyone who isn't Jessica Chastain is already a plus.

Her being fancasted for every red head was annoying as hell.

So first, he will have Rachel Nicols as a love interest. Then Emilia Clarke... Now Amber Heard? Momoa is one lucky son of a...

@Minty yeah it's s bummer how Hollywood sorta gives these actresses shit roles for the most of their 20s before moving on to the next one while the Jai Courtney's of the world get X franchise all day everyday.

@JamesMann that's a dumb excuse for not liking her. One of the most talented actresses working today.

Be careful around him. Gus invited me to the "sexiest club in Detroit" and he took us to a Chuck E. Cheese.

"it makes sense,pairing up two bad actors"

That's pretty funny considering neither Jason Momoa or Amber Heard are bad actors...

@Omarvls

Never EVER asked for Chastain to be Mera (or anyone in a CBM for that matter).

@Reasonnnn

Yeah she's a fine actress but I don't think she has to be in a CBM.

I like Amber Heard, but you GOTTA BE REAL, they could be going for some better actors. She's great in B movies and wild action thrillers; real femme fatale. But, I was hoping they'd go for someone higher caliber. If she gets it, I'd still be happy.



Pun cause she used to be a lesbian haha. Now she's bi with Johnny Depp. Lucky bastard.

Unfortunately you're probably right unless Ben, Antonio, and DeAngelo take a swim in a Lazarus Pit before Sunday.
