Patrick Wilson has been cast to play Aquaman’s evil half-brother opposite Jason Momoa in director James Wan’s “Aquaman.”
The character, also known as Ocean Master, first appeared in “Aquaman” #29 (September 1966), and was created by Bob Haney and Nick Cardy.
Orm Curry was Aquaman’s fully human half-brother, the son of Tom Curry (Aquaman’s father) and a woman named Mary O’Sullivan. He grew up under the shadow of his heroic half-brother and resented the fact that he had none of Aquaman’s powers, because he was fully human. He was already a petty criminal when he was stricken with amnesia and forgot all about his former life, then disappeared.
