Aquaman recast

Aquaman, as Anna reported, is still moving
forward despite the merger of UPN and the WB into the new CW. However, there has been a change in
casting, and Will Toale will no longer be
playing the moist super hero who likes to converse with all the little fishies. Instead, the role is being given to
Justin Hartley. Apparently the producers have a thing for actors who were in soap operas. Toale was on Guiding
Light and Hartley was seen most recently on Passions. The decision to recast was the result of the merger
between the two networks, and Leslie Moonves, CEO of CBS (which owns UPN) made the recommendation to give the role to
Hartley.
Thanks to Toby for the tip.
