Jason Momoa has revealed that the forthcoming Aquaman sequel filmed scenes with multiple different Batman actors.
Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom is set to hit cinemas towards the end of this year.
Reports have suggested that Michael Keaton is set to reprise the role of Bruce Wayne, aka Batman, which he last inhabited back in 1992’s Batman Returns.
Keaton also filmed scenes for the forthcoming DC Comics adaptation, The Flash.
Speaking to The Wrap, Momoa confirmed that Aquaman 2 had included multiple Batman actors during production, though he declined to say exactly who.
“I shot with a couple different Batmans, but you just don’t know what’s going on and we’ll see what the end product is,” he teased.
The former Game of Thrones star previously shared a picture with Ben Affleck on the set of Aquaman 2, suggesting that Affleck would be returning as the iteration of Bruce Wayne seen in Batman vs Superman and Justice League.
In the interview, Momoa also spoke about his future with DC Comics, amid speculation that he could be leaving the role of Aquaman in the near future.
“[I’m feeling] really f***ing good,” he said. “Aquaman’s not going anywhere so it’s alright.”

Momoa continued: “Everything’s gonna be good, we’re still here and then I might be dipping into some other things too.”
