When I checked the DC wiki site, it says that Aquaman is 6'1" tall, but 325 lbs.

 

:o

 

He could be retaining a little bit of water, and needs to see his doctor.

It's all in the trunks.

Rumor: Ben Affleck injures leg, ‘Batman vs. Superman’ production delayed

 

According to my source, Ben Affleck has sustained a leg injury, and as a result Batman vs. Superman production has been pushed back six weeks. The crew was informed of that decision earlier this week, and told they’ll be on hiatus for about a month.

They could still start filming with scenes that only need Superman plus we don't know what date filming was going to to start originally. The site also has an article of gal Gadot training for her wonder woman role.

‘Batman vs. Superman’ delayed until 2016

Warner Bros. just announced that Batman vs. Superman has been delayed until May 6th, 2016. Earlier this afternoon, Batman News reported that Ben Affleck injured his leg, and production would be pushed back six weeks. I’ve still been unable to get confirmation on that story, but perhaps it had something to do with pushing Batman vs. Superman back a year?

 

The official reason given in the Warner Bros. press release was so that the filmmakers could have more time to “realize fully their vision, given the complex visual nature of the story”. Check out the full press released below for more.

 

BURBANK, CA – January 17, 2014 – Warner Bros. Pictures announced today that the release of Zack Snyder’s untitled Superman/Batman film has been moved to May 6, 2016, allowing the filmmakers time to realize fully their vision, given the complex visual nature of the story. The decision was made following the shift of the start of production to second quarter of this year. The Studio has also set a July 17, 2015, worldwide release date for its as-yet-untitled all-new Peter Pan adventure. Joe Wright will direct the epic live-action film about the boy who would never grow up, created by J.M. Barrie. The dual date announcement was made by Dan Fellman, President, Domestic Distribution, and Veronika Kwan Vandenberg, President, International Distribution, Warner Bros. Pictures.

 

In making the announcement, Fellman stated, “We are happy to take advantage of these coveted summer dates, which are perfect for two of our biggest tentpole releases. We share the fans’ excitement to see DC Comics’ most popular figures, Superman and Batman, together on the big screen for the first time, which will now be arriving in theatres in May 2016. Peter Pan has delighted people of every generation for more than a century, so we are thrilled to bring him back to the screen next summer for today’s moviegoers.”

 

Kwan Vandenberg added, “We know that there is already great anticipation building for the next Super Hero film from Zack Snyder, and we are equally eager to see what he has in store for Superman and Batman as they share the big screen for the first time ever. The summer release corridor is also perfect for Joe Wright’s ambitious new Peter Pan adventure, reimagining the ageless story of the beloved and forever-young hero for audiences worldwide.”

 

Zack Snyder’s Superman/Batman film stars Henry Cavill, reprising his role as Superman/Clark Kent, and Ben Affleck as Batman/Bruce Wayne. The film will also reunite “Man of Steel” stars Amy Adams, Laurence Fishburne and Diane Lane, and also stars Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman/Diana Prince.

 

Snyder will direct the film from a screenplay written by David S. Goyer, from a story co-created by Goyer and Snyder. Charles Roven and Deborah Snyder are producing, with Benjamin Melniker, Michael E. Uslan and Wesley Coller serving as executive producers.

 

The film is based on Superman characters created by Jerry Siegel & Joe Shuster, Batman characters created by Bob Kane, and Wonder Woman created by William Moulton Marston, published by DC Entertainment.

Interesting short article on how the delay may not have been just due to an Affleck injury.

 

Batman-Superman Movie Delayed Until 2016 - Justice League On The Way?

 

It may have been to take the movie out of the same year as Avengers 2, so riding the follow-on excitement from the Marvel movie.

In a way I'm happy they move it by 10 months 2015 is already heavy year with a lot of movies going to have trouble. This also looks like they are planning to film back to back batman/Superman and JL.

 

In one of the sites can't remember which one someone from the comments said this delay could make WB/DC unpredictable and could give them time to film three movies back to back. Batman/Superman, JL and a solo film.

Whoa!

 

Now that would be interesting if they can fill the queue with great movies back-to-back like that.

Jason Momoa Once Again Denies Rumors That He's Playing 'Aquaman' In BATMAN VS. SUPERMAN.

 

Oh well.

 

 

Or is he? hm

 

*groan* Regardless of whether it's true or not, you can already hear the sound of Aquaman prices going BOOM as speculators scramble to get out ahead of this.

 

Ah well, guess it's time to change collecting focus.
