Zack Snyder tweeted out the first look of Jason Momoa made up as Aquaman. The picture had the text “There is only one true King. #unitetheseven” with it.

The “seven” is likely a reference to the seven kingdoms of Atlantis in the DC Comics Aquaman series. It recently became important (and introduced) during writer Geoff Johns’ run where the seven kingdoms are the Seven Seas as fractured kingdoms, where Atlantis is the major hub, Xebel is another comprised of foragers in and around the Bermuda Triangle, and the Trench is full of monsters that are ancient Atlanteans. The other kingdoms are thought to be New Atlantis, Lemuria, Venturia, Aurania, and Sub Diego. All of that is tied into a large Justice League story, Rise of the Seven Seas, which has yet to debut.

The Seven Seas can also be interpreted as seven Justice League members and Johns has teased that as well. Reasons this doesn’t quite fit is DC Comics’ announced movie plans includes Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, The Flash, Aquaman, Shazam, Cyborg, and Green Lantern. That’d be eight individuals, unless one isn’t a member of the team (most likely Shazam). DC Comics’ movie plans will eventually lead into a movie featuring the Justice League whose first part is to land in 2017.

Speculate freely….
