James Wan sounds excited.
Jason Momoa's Aquaman, as seen here in Justice League, will likely have its big feature debut at San Diego Comic-Con this week.
Aquaman director James Wan is nearly ready to make a big splash at San Diego Comic-Con this week.
Late Sunday, Wan tweeted a peek at the trailer for his DC movie, which will star Jason Momoa as Arthur Curry/Aquaman.

The tweet shows a figure holding a trident, and... is that a whale's tail in the background?
Further bolstering Aquaman's connection with whales and sharks is the Aquaman movie poster revealed Monday, which shows Curry holding his trident while sharks, dolphins and whales swim behind him. The movie's Twitter account also confirms the film's trailer will debut Saturday.
