The Mary Poppins of our hearts, Julie Andrews, has just been confirmed to appear in Aquaman as a gigantic nightmare sea monster (that’s a sentence that I wasn’t expecting to have to write tonight). The news comes courtesy of EW, who report that the Oscar-winning actress is set to voice the Karathen, who I think is the crab-like lava creature-thing you can glimpse in the most recent trailer.
A bit of digging online indicates that the Karathen seems to be a creature concocted solely for the movie rather than taken from Aquaman lore, with EW describing it as holding the key to Arthur Curry’s goal of uniting the undersea and surface worlds. A little more poking around uncovered this description of the creature from Reilly Lohr, one of the VFX artists who worked on the movie:
“At Ilm I was part of the team painting the gargantuan Karathen.
