While Wonder Woman opted against a post-credit scene, Justice League star Jason Momoa has confirmed in an interview with the BBC that fans will want to hang around during the credits of the DC blockbuster, with the Aquaman actor revealing that: “You’ve gotta sit through the whole thing and go through the credits. I forgot that [scene] was in the script. It’s fantastic.”
Given that the only DC movie in production while Justice League was shooting was Momoa’s Aquaman movie, it would seem a decent bet that said scene paves the way for Arthur Curry’s solo adventure, and Momoa has also been chatting about the evolution of his character from Justice League to Aquaman during the film’s press tour (via ComicBook):
“You’re going to see that I really wanted him to be that gruff thing, because he has to become king. If Justice League is like seeing him at his lowest, and not just his lowest, but this loneliness that I wanted about him, so when we get to Aquaman you know why he became that, and how he had been put in that lonely spot. And how he has to bring these two worlds together. Because you’re going to see this ocean world, which we just pollute, and how do these people feel underwater with what the land does to the ocean. And this war that is going to come between the two, and I’m the only one that can link the two. He has to do it. He doesn’t want to do it. Surpassing Justice League, this moment in time is his call to become king. The only thing that can save Atlantis is me fighting my own brother. There’s a big battle, and there’s an epic [fight].”
