Aquaman: 10 Things Fans Demand Most

3. Getting Hired

Aquaman First Look
Warner Bros.

Given the film is supposed to cut between Arthur's childhood and the present day, there is a small gap of time that still isn't accounted for; namely, how he got to join the spandex-clad ranks of superheroes.

We catch up to him in Justice League aiding a seaside village, as basically already a superhero but we have literally no idea why he started doing that - or what convinced him to. He can’t be too much of a rookie, either – given he shows up in the film in full battle armour at one point – so it’s not super clear where exactly in his rise to herodom we actually are.

Arthur clearly isn't the biggest fan of humans - or helping people, in general - so it'd be incredibly interesting to see what convinced him to use his powers for good. More importantly, it’d fill in the blanks for the final member of the ‘main’ Justice League, since we get the full story on every other member but our ocean-based pal.
