[[WMG: Black Manta will be the conventional BigBad, while Ocean Master will be a political/moral threat to Aquaman]]
Black Manta will be the film's main adversary, a human mercenary trying to loot Atlantean technology and/or kill Aquaman in revenge for the death of his father. Orm will start the film as Aquaman's ally and friend (perhaps "Ocean Master" could even be a title or rank in the Atlantean military) but will be the leader of a militant faction of Atlantean society that views Manta's attack as a declaration of war by the surface-dwellers, and thus support invading the surface in retaliation. Aquaman will have to balance his own desire for peace with the need to play politics and ensure the support of Orm's faction, but eventually his hesitance to go to war will drive a permanent wedge between him and Orm, leading the latter to start believing that his human heritage and upbringing has made him unworthy of the throne. TheStinger of the film will be Orm adopting his Ocean Master costume and rallying a group of followers to start a plot to overthrow Aquaman.

[[WMG: Starro will appear]]
Maybe not in person, but it would make sense that it tried to conquer Earth at some point of the past. Maybe it's even TheManBehindTheMan to Black Manta or Ocean Master, with them using pieces of it to recruit followers and realizing to late that it's playing with them. Another proof? The quote on the main page may not be one, but [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/EldritchAbomination the very nature of Starro]] makes very likely that the quote is about it or some other creature.

Option A) A flashback where Arthur has short blonde hair but decides to grow it out and mostly dye it brown.
Option B) He has this haircut when he first encountered Atlantis and finds himself in what he sees as an embarrassing royal garb that is his classic orange and green skintight wetsuit, leading to him preferring the armor he wears in ''Film/JusticeLeague''.

He's the founder of Atlantis and the trident originated from him, so it would make sense for him to appear in some capacity, even if it's merely a flashback. This could be the secret role of Creator/GrahamMcTavish. Seriously, we know he can rock a pretty great beard.

[[WMG: Aquaman's parents' [[AdaptationDyeJob hair color will be switched]].]]
Since Aquaman's actor isn't blond, it's logical for his mother to be dark-haired as well (assuming Kidman will dye her hair). Likely all Atlanteans will be dark-haired, due to be descended from Greek-ish people. If Tom Curry gets killed like in the New 52 comics, it's likely by Atlanteans searching for Orin who thought Tom was [[BlondGuysAreEvil evil because of his blond hair]] (like in Post-Crisis/pre-Flashpoint).

In the same vein as ''Film/ThreeHundredRiseOfAnEmpire'', the first act will explore Arthur's time before Bruce Wayne came to recruit him, the second act will be his discovery of his royal blood as he is working with the League, and the third act will be him taking back his title as king from Ocean Master some time after defeating Steppenwolf.

Seeing that Kidman is only twelve years older than Jason Momoa, and they've already cast a TimeShiftedActor for Arthur, they'll most likely appear through flashbacks.

A possible explanation being that Atlanna is notably older than Kidman's real age.
