DC Wants Nicole Kidman To Join Aquaman Movie

Nicole Kidman is in early talks to join the cast of the upcoming film Aquaman. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the Australian actress is being considered for the role of Aquaman’s mother in the Warner Bros/DC production.

James Wan will helm the project, which is expected to begin production in April in Australia. The film is expected to release on 5 October, 2018.

According to comic books, Aquaman, the underwater-breathing superhero is the king of Atlantis. His mother Atlanna, a member of the royal family, falls in love with a lighthouse keeper Tom Curry and later gives birth to Arthur Curry aka Aquaman.

The Hours star was most recently nominated for an Academy Award for best supporting actress for her role in Lion — a film about an Indian man (played by Dev Patel) adopted by an Australian couple, who tries to find his biological family with the help of Google Maps.
