The DC Universe has had plenty of twists and turns during the years, especially related to its leadership. James Gunn and Peter Safran were recently named co-CEOs of the studio, and are making sweeping changes to the shared universe. But there were a few upcoming DC movies filmed before this leadership changed, including James Wan’s Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom. That movie is getting close to release, although some fans have signed a petition for Amber Heard to be fired as Mera. So what if Emilia Clarke replaced her in Aquaman 2? New fan art has explored this possibility.
The petition to see Amber Heard removed from the DCU happened right after Johnny Depp was fired from the role of Grindelwald in the Fantatic Beasts franchise. Despite Aquaman 2 already being filmed, fans wanted to see her removed and replaced thanks to VFX and reshoots. Game of Thrones alum Emilia Clarke has been a popular choice to take the mantle of Mera, and now we can see what she’d look like courtesy of fan art on Instagram. Check it out below:
