The movie is still nine months away, but people are already wondering why we haven't seen a trailer for Aquaman yet. There were some rumors that a trailer was going to drop this weekend at WonderCon, but director James Wan took to Twitter to tell people that it isn't true. He also revealed why we haven't seen anything from the movie yet; it isn't ready, according to him.

Hey friends, I usually do my best to avoid internet noises (especially fabricated distractions) but a teaser-trailer going out this weekend was never in the books — despite what some claim. It's not because of anyone or any nefarious reason holding it back — IT'S ME. (1/3) — James Wan (@creepypuppet) March 25, 2018

I am simply not ready yet to share. This movie is filled to the gills with VFX, and the process is as slow and laborious as a sea-slug! Yes, even shots for the trailers take forever to do, and I refuse to put out anything that might be construed as subpar. (2/3) — James Wan (@creepypuppet) March 25, 2018

I know it seems like nothing much is brewing above the surface, but I can assure you, we're working nonstop under the waves 🌊 😉 (3/3)

(Ps: And yes, I plan to use oceanic puns/references every chance I get 😂) — James Wan (@creepypuppet) March 25, 2018

Bring on the ocean puns, Mr. Wan.
