‘Wonder Woman,’ ‘Aquaman’ and ‘Shazam!” thrill Comic-Con
SAN DIEGO — Warner Bros. brought out all the stops Saturday at Comic-Con with an army of stars, surprises and new footage from films like “Aquaman ,” ”Shazam! ” and even “Wonder Woman 1984,” which is only three and a half weeks into production. Jason Momoa, Gal Gadot, Chris Pratt, Johnny Depp and Nicole Kidman were just a few of the starry names to grace the stage of the comic book convention’s Hall H.
Momoa, who stars as Aquaman, seemed to be as excited as those in the 6,500-seat audience, if not more so. The actor was downright giddy speaking about the film, which is over five years in the making.
“My heart is big and open,” he said. “I’m really, really happy.”
Director James Wan, best known for his “Conjuring” films, introduced some new footage in two trailers from the origin story, which hits theatres in December.
