Buried in an otherwise interesting article about the state of DC Comics at the movies is a brief mention that Leonardo DiCaprio is producing a big-screen version of AQUAMAN for Warner Bros. Before you get too excited, DiCaprio is only attached to produce at this time and development is in the very early stages (they're "taking pitches" from writers). But in a time when GREEN LANTERN is finally moving ahead and other DC projects are moving ahead, it's possible we could see an AQUAMAN movie before we see another SUPERMAN movie.
It'll be hard to get an AQUAMAN movie taken seriously though with "Entourage" and "why don't you go talk to some fish?!" still fresh in everyone's brain. DiCaprio has been trying hard to get a fanboy friendly project off the ground (see: AKIRA) but hasn't had much luck.
Do you think AQUAMAN is worth adapting into a movie or would you rather Warner Bros. focus their attention on FLASH, SUPERMAN or another DC property?
Extra Tidbit:
Marvel has similarly been trying to get a SUB-MARINER movie off the ground.
