Amber Heard will reportedly play Queen Mera, wife of DC Comics superhero Aquaman.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Heard will first play the regal Atlantean in The Justice League: Part One before starring in Aquaman’s solo feature film.

Mera’s abilities mostly mirror her husband’s (super strength, speed), but also include the ability to manipulate water into shields and weapons. Heard hasn’t been officially cast for the role as of yet but reports suggest that she is in the driving seat.

The Justice League: Part One is set to hit screens on Nov. 17, 2017, with Aquaman expected for a July 27, 2018 release.
