At the industry-only event in Las Vegas, Warner Bros. presented those in attendance with some concept art for AQUAMAN. Here's a description of what was seen at CinemaCon, from io9, and if you don't want to know then you probably shouldn't continue reading.
"It started with what looked like a bunch of ships flying against a dark blue sky. Very dark, metallic, looking ships. Think the Kryptonian tech in Man of Steel, but not exactly that. Anyway, director James Wan explains in voiceover behind these images that he wanted to create a dogfight in outer space. However, as you are watching it and the camera moves closer and closer you realize these aren’t ships. They are humans riding sharks and octopuses. And we saw images of exactly that. The entire fight is underwater.
"Wan described Aquaman as an origin story, so the first time we see Atlantis should be the same time Aquaman sees Atlantis. The concept art was epic. A huge, almost Gondor-like city, lots of detail, and hangers with ships going in and out which are flanked by massive statues. However, there are also shots of a lighthouse on a hill, and a few more serene spaces. The whole movie is not going to be underwater.
"He described Aquaman’s world as a very different one, and they showed a few characters such as an almost robot character with a single, large, red eye and another that was almost like a walking man with a shark head (quite possibly Black Manta and King Shark but I can’t be sure). There’s also an image of Aquaman putting his hand on a huge whale."
Sounds very cool!
