Still, this isn’t exactly a surprising development as the upcoming Wonder Woman also filmed in Italy.
While this isn’t the location that Wan has teased in the past, it’s obvious the filmmaker has had his eye on Italy for a while now.
Wan’s insistence on shooting in Italy could be a favorable thing for Aquaman as the fictional kingdom of Atlantis (that Aquaman is leader of) calls for a place more on the elaborate and majestically beautiful side.
As Wan himself put it a few months ago, it’s a “gorgeous, picturesque” location that should add a lot of visual depth to the film.
