Jason Mamoa, the star of the movie is also sharing the take-off challenge with director Wan by helping in social media promotions. The working title has just been disclosed and although it might not be the most clandestine, it comes with a sly wit.

"Ahab" as it is revealed recently is the working title of Aquaman's initial movie that is about to be tested to generate positive or negative results. The choice is influenced by the world of comic books like Moby Dick particularly the Captain Ahab character. He is the white whale-obsessed seaman that bit off his leg.

James Wan could never be proud to come up with another masterpiece that is not only intellectual but action-filled entertainment material as well.

Aquaman's target completion date is on July 27, 2018 - that should come before Shazam which is on April 5, 2019; Justice League 2 scheduled on June 14, 2019; Cyborg which is seen happening on April 3, 2020; and Green Lantern Corps estimated to be launched on July 24, 2020, according to Comic Book.
