The Dark Depths of Black Manta 'Aquaman' Behind The Scenes [+Subtitles]

[@whiteknight8734]

One thing i loved about this movie, that they nailed everyone's suit in this film. From Aquaman to Black Manta, Orm , Mera every one of their suits were perfection.

Vulko and Murk is the only character I've kinda disagree portraying by the actors.

[@Stewart118Tyler]

Agreed....wasn't a fan of the movie overall. But everyone LOOKED amazing. Job well done.

[@supreethnshekar108]

DCEU has always been amazing with character's suits.

[@cv1012]

The passion this guy has for Black Manta makes him the only Black Manta I’d ever want in the DCEU. I’d love to see him with Lex Luthor, Cheetah, Dr Sivana and other villains for the Injustice League in a future Justice League film before we see Darkseid!!

Agreed, he clearly has a lot of passion for this role, and seems to really enjoy talking about the character and what it took to bring him to life on the screen!

[@patrickbateman3944]

Man I love this guy's enthusiasm for the role, his dedication(if you can find one of the earlier interviews he said he didn't know how to swim so he taught himself during breaks in the hotel's pool) and just his delivery of lines in the movie, when Aquaman pierced his father you could feel the pain in his voice when he screamed and later anger once he obtained the suit and went to battle. Hope to see him in more DC movies in the future and movies in general.

Black Manta was awesome in the film. I very much look forward to seeing more of him in the sequel. Black Manta was always a favorite of mine. I was introduced to him long ago when he was part of the Legion of Doom on Challenge of the Superfriends. Back then, I thought he was an alien, lol! I later discovered the character in comic book back issues of Aquaman. It was very satisfying to see him done so well in live action! Very satisfying indeed.

best?, ok facts, downgraded a highpower Plasma Gun into a Joke, Biggest weakness is his huge helmet, needs water to power his "heat vision" means limited amount of shots , simple Human with an anger problem, = will always be defeated easily

[@gametabulas]

Most comic accurate suit ever! And he looked badass! James wan made comic book real. Specially character like Aquaman we never thought they could create a comic accurate costumes but here we are! Amazing talanted costume department, they shoulve gotten an oscar nomination but well oscars are political garbage.

[@dodywidodo9433]

Vikram Singh don’t believe in oscars, it’s already rotten

[@jamiebraswell5520]

Well, the Academy Awards lost their relevance long ago. These days, if something does not get a nomination from them, then that is a good thing.

[@venturatheace1]

That title has to go to either Aquaman or Orm

[@liemduong6729]

@M Going full on comic accurate isnt always the best. I like Shazam outfit, but i feel the should upgrade in the sequel, The big metallic lightning bolt and light deep red armor is the perfect modernization without taking away his comic book accuracy.

I love black manta. Out of all the villains that have been seen in dc you can respect him, because he became this way because of the arragance of the atlatians in a way particularly aqua man, and to be honest I can see if the actor that played black manta wanted to play him again I would love to see a movie revolving around this charcter and him becoming a king of his own.
