Updates From Cobra Kai, Rick & Morty, and More

Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom

During a recent interview with Variety, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II described playing the villain Black Manta as “clown work.”

Everything should be about getting to the truth. But sometimes you got to know which movie or genre you’re in. Something like ‘Aquaman,’ that’s clown work. Aquaman is not ‘The Trial of the Chicago 7.’ You have got to get over yourself. In order to survive [as an actor] and to do it well, you have to play that game and then be crafty about when you want to surprise the audience, the director, or yourself with a little bit of ‘Wow, I didn’t expect to see a Chekhovian thing or August Wilson and Aquaman, but I did.’
