Aquaman is officially underway as director James Wan has posted the first set image from Australia.

And the image looks a little familiar!

Fans of the Man of Steel movie may remember a certain oil rig scene where Clark Kent saves the day! Clark uses his super strength to rip off a door to save the men inside, and he also keeps the rig from collapsing. However, Clark can't get out fast enough and ends up in the ocean deep! The sound of whales can be heard as Clark seemingly meets his doom, but since Clark is a super man, he escapes the cold embrace of the water!

Many fans have thought that particular scene in Man of Steel was a reference or Easter Egg for Aquaman, and it turns out they may be right! It's possible either Aquaman sent the whales to find any survivors--or possibly Aquaman was responsible for the destruction of the oil rig in the first place!

Take a look at James Wan's tweet, which seemingly reveals the inside of the oil rig, followed by the Man of Steel scene!

Pretty cool nod if it holds up!

Months of intensive prep have led to this. Here we go. #DayOne #Ahab pic.twitter.com/Ryhl3NUtRY — James Wan (@creepypuppet) May 3, 2017
