According to the report, the cut is from a scene where Hounsou’s character, Fisherman King, and King Orm, played by Patrick Wilson contemplate waging war against the surface dwellers [us] who keep polluting the ocean and endangering the lives of the sea creatures. Aquaman will be released later this year, on the 21st of December, followed closely by Shazam, which is to be released in April of 2019. In between both, Djimon Hounsou will reprise his role as Korath the Pursuer Marvel’s Captain Marvel in March next year.
