Is it a coincidence that Aquaman and Mary Poppins Returns will be released in the same month? Another coincidence? Both movies will have a taste of the legendary Julie Andrews in them!
Entertainment Weekly revealed that the Hollywood veteran would be voicing the previously secret role of Karathen, an underwater creature that plays an important part in Aquaman's journey. But is the creature a friend or a foe?

Aquaman's producer, Peter Safran spoke to ET saying, "We wanted the Karathen to have the voice of a classic British actress, albeit somewhat digitally altered. And when we found out Julie was interested and available and excited to do it, casting her was a no-brainer."
Peter also joked about how ironic it was that the aquatic superhero film featuring Julie would be going up against Disney's Mary Poppins Returns, which sees Emily Blunt taking over the titular role from Julie.
"Who knew that Aquaman would have the real Mary Poppins this Christmas?" he said.

We're even more excited to see Aquaman now!
