In an interview with Uproxx, Wan reveals that he chose between Aquaman and one of DC’s other 2018 outings, The Flash. When asked why he declined to direct The Flash, Wan explains, “This is how I weighed it: For me, we’ve seen various versions of The Flash…There’s a popular show on TV and there was a great one in the ’90s.” As for Aquaman, however, there aren’t as many versions of him, and people don’t feel as strongly about him as they do with, say, Batman and Superman.…

While Superman has a big presence on Supergirl, the Man of Steel never made a full-fledged appearance.

But next season, we’ll actually be seeing Superman for real.
