Aquaman won’t work without Momoa. He is this generation’s aquaman. Recasting maybe 15 years from now fine. But there is a definite X-factor or some genius combination of marketing, playing to Momoa’s strengths and how he was depicted that has helped draw some of the audience in. Actors often need the right platform and things to synergize via marketing, film content, looks and highlighting the USPs of their personalities to become a draw for some audiences
That's a grounless claim.
I mean sure, Momoa did work for the movie. The script was even adapted to fit his wild personality. But going as far as saying he was the reason the movie was so successful and even that he can't be replaced..come on.
People love RDJ as Iron Man and his first two movies didn't make over 700M.
