Watch out, but the entire Gold Coast might accidentally become simultaneously pregnant. Yes, even the men.
Khal Drogo a.k.a. Jason Momoa is headed to Australia to film DC aquatic comic ‘Aquaman‘, after the Federal Government agreed to provide $22 million in tax breaks for the film.
Willem Dafoe, Patrick Wilson, and director James Wan (who recently directed ‘Fast and Furious 7‘) will also be heading to Queensland to begin filming next year.
Aquaman, despite being pretend-made into a film starring Vinnie Chase in the ‘Entourage‘ universe, has never been realised on film (although the character is set to appear in 2017’s ‘Justice League‘, which looks like DC’s version of ‘The Avengers‘).
Treasurer Scott Morrison said this development was proof of the federal government’s recognised the importance of the Australian film economy.
“This is part of the positive transition that’s happening in our national economy,” he said.
“We want to continue to back that in so we’re backing in Aquaman, we backed in Thor, and we’re backing in the Gold Coast.”
Let the celeb-stalking games of 2017 begin.
