Production[edit]
Development[edit]
In 2004, FilmJerk.com reported that
Sunrise Entertainment's Alan and Peter
Riche planned to bring Aquaman to the big
screen for Warner Bros., with Robert Ben
Garant writing the screenplay.[29] However,
the film fell through. In July 2009, it was
reported that Aquaman was in
development at Leonardo DiCaprio's
Appian Way, and Warner chairman and
CEO Barry Meyer said that
the Aquaman film was in
development.[30] After Man of Steel's
release in 2013, a source from Warner
Bros. told The Wrap that they were
discussing future films, with the mention of
more Man of Steel movies as well as a
Superman/Batman film, a Wonder Woman
film, and an Aquaman film.[31][32][33] Geoff
Johns told Variety that Aquaman is a
priority character for the company.[34] It was
announced on August 12, 2014, that
Warner Bros. had hired screenwriters Will
Beall and Kurt Johnstad to pen two
separate scripts for an Aquaman film. The
film was being developed on dual tracks,
meaning that one script was being by Beall
and one by Johnstad, but only the better
version would move forward.[35]
