He plays the supervillain Ocean Master in the Jason Momoa-led superhero franchise. Chat show host James Corden was quite curious about the fighting scenes between the Ocean Master and Aquaman, he went on to ask-
“The fight scenes in the film are incredible. You are sort of suspended on the ropes. Well, what were they like?”
Patrick Wilson replied-
“They’re really wires. They’re not so much ropes anymore. “
James Corden was embarrassed. The Aquaman star further said with laughter-
“I’m just saying, we moved on from you know, the old days of the Navy and the turn of the century. Victorian times, wheel him up. No, they’re fully supported steel cables. Yes, it’s a variety of harnesses. It’s just they’re not ropes. “

Patrick Wilson On His Character Orm In Aquaman 2
During an exclusive interview with a famous media platform ScreenRant, Patrick Wilson gave an insight about his character in Aquaman And The Lost Kingdom. While talking about the relationship between Arthur played by Jason Momoa and Orm, his half-brother played by Patrick Wilson, he pointed out
“I think winning over his armies may be a difficult journey. But I think because they’re blood-related, there is always some hope there. That’s the journey. So I would be very interested to see his relationship with Arthur in the future. More interested in that, honestly, than what he would be like with a group of supervillains. I don’t think he would get along with anybody.”
While talking about the dietary changes the characters had to go through, he mentioned to Entertainment Weekly that his co-star Jason Momoa was jealous of his diet as he was cutting down on his own for a leaner frame. On the other hand, the Insidious star had to eat more to meet the physicality of his character.
“Our lunches were very funny because he was cutting down to trim out ’cause so much of his stuff is shirtless, so he was very angry about not being able to eat. And then me and Yaya [Abdul-Mateen II], who plays Black Manta, we were all bulking up.”
Aquaman And The Lost Kingdom is set to hit the theatres on December 20, 2023. Check out the official trailer of Aquaman And The Lost Kingdom below.
