Mera’s role
How much is Amber Heard’s character Mera in the film? Well, besides being the mother to Arthur’s child, Wan said the following.
“Mera obviously is a massive character in the Aquaman world so we obviously want to be respectful to the character,” he said. “That’s the bottom line. I want to be respectful to all the characters and do everyone justice. But at the end of the day, I have this story to tell, but I [also] have so many other characters to serve, and I felt like I told the Arthur and Mera story in the first one so I can sort of focus on Arthur and Orm in this one. And so basically it’s a journey movie really with those two and then the other characters sort of like pepper their world.”
