Actor Yahya Abdul-Mateen II is busy getting ready to play Arthur Curry’s enemy, Black Manta, on the big screen.
At the center of the collection of Aquaman comics is an issue of the New Suicide Squad, a series which began in 2014 and includes Black Manta as the leader of the team of misfit antiheroes.
His enthusiasm for the project should be a positive sign for DC fans that he’ll be diligently working towards the best portrayal of the villain possible.
This includes Abdul-Mateen II, who recently confirmed his part as the relentless villain on Twitter.
