After “Aquaman” released its latest poster last week, the excitement for the movie inspired one of its fans to come up with the idea to give names to all the sea creatures around the lead role King Atlan, Arthur Curry, on the poster.

Not only is there a Terry the shark and a Mel B. the dolphin, but a bunch of other names that were specifically chosen for each sea animal appear on the poster. “I felt bad for the uncredited sea creatures on the ‘Aquaman’ poster so I gave them names,” Cameron Williams wrote in his tweet.

In another tweet Williams tagged Warner Brothers Pictures and the movie’s director James Wan, saying, “You can use a few of these names if you want.” Some people apparently appreciate his work and are even coming up with all kinds of ideas.
Arthur Curry, the half-human and half-Atlantean character played by Jason Momoa, has to shift between the need of the surface world and the world beneath the ocean in the film. Curry then finds the trident of King Atlan, which means he has to become the king his people need. In order to fulfill his responsibility of reuniting both the two worlds, Curry has to fight off those who stand in his way, as well as his own insecurities.
“Aquaman” will officially debut in December 2018.
