Julie Andrews is one of the all - metre actress of her multiplication , with a stunning voice and more personal appeal than most people can even think about . She ’s mostly retired now , with only a fistful of appearance in films in the recent decade , and her next is a voice office in … Aquaman ?
Yes ! That ’s correct ! According toEntertainment Weekly , Mary Poppins herself will lend her powers of whimsical insight to the office of a , uh , witching undersea tool . She will be playing the Karathen , some kind of mythical undersea puppet , who act an significant persona in Arthur ’s journeying ; purportedly it “ holds the key to Arthur Curry ’s ( Jason Momoa ) seeking to unite the Atlantean and surface world . ”
Superhero movies spue otherwise unrelated celebrities all the fourth dimension , but this one just utterly ravish me . Her mien is so uncommon to see on film these days .
“ We wanted the Karathen to have the voice of a classic British actress , albeit somewhat digitally altered , ” said Aquaman producer Peter Safran . “ And when we found out Julie was interested and available and frantic to do it , puke her was a no - brainer . ”
Ironically , this now put Julie Andrews — the original Mary Poppins — against Mary Poppins Returns in theatres , whenAquamancomes out on December 21 ( or a week before , if you have Amazon Prime ) . Sorry , Emily Blunt .
