Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom │ News Update │ Cineflicks News
Aquaman made his first appearance in Justice League, but his solo movie directed by James Wan in 2018 was a massive hit both financially and critically. The movie delved into Arthur Curry’s backstory and claim to the throne of Atlantis in fascinating detail. However, Aquaman & The Lost Kingdom has faced its fair share of setbacks, including DCU upheaval, release delays, and a lawsuit involving one of its stars. And with solo movies for Superman, Ben Affleck’s Batman, and Cyborg nonexistent, Wonder Woman 3 canceled, and The Flash’s lead star embroiled in controversy, Jason Momoa’s Aquaman is now seen as the primary key to the future of the DCU. In this video, we’ll be diving into the most important updates about Aquaman & The Lost Kingdom, from the cast to story beats. So make sure you stick around until the end.
Initially, Aquaman 2’s working title was “Necrus”. It’s a reference to a dark underwater city ruled by a tyrant seeking domination over the surface world, which could potentially be the “lost kingdom” mentioned in the movie’s synopsis. Aquaman and his former rival, Orm, will team up in an “uneasy alliance” to protect Atlantis and the world from devastation, while Black Manta seeks revenge against Aquaman. The movie will have a more mature story arc and will tackle issues related to the environment and the climate crisis. However, it will still have plenty of humor, according to both director James Wan and titular character Jason Momoa. James Wan has returned to direct this sequel while the first movie’s co-writer, David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick, has written the script once again. The movie is being produced by Wan and Peter Safran, who has now taken on the role of co-head of DC Studios. In Aquaman & The Lost Kingdom, the vast majority of the original cast from the 2018 movie is set to return. Jason Momoa, who leads the franchise as Arthur Curry (a.k.a. Aquaman), will be joined by Patrick Wilson as Orm, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II as Black Manta, Amber Heard as Mera, Dolph Lundgren as King Nereus, Randall Park as Dr. Shin, and Temuera Morrison as Thomas Curry. Moreover, Willem Dafoe’s Vulko and Nicole Kidman’s Atlanna are expected to feature, adding even more familiar faces to the ensemble. Notably, Vincent Regan has been cast as King Atlan, a role previously held by Graham McTavish. Additionally, Ben Affleck will make a return appearance as Batman, which has been teased by Jason Momoa himself, causing much excitement among fans. Originally scheduled to hit theaters in December 2022, it was later pushed to March 17, 2023, as part of a larger reshuffle in the DC Universe. However, we recently learned that the release date has been delayed again, and the new confirmed release date for Aquaman & The Lost Kingdom is December 25th, 2023. The reason for this delay is reportedly due to the need for more post-production VFX processing time. For more updates about Aquaman and the lost kingdom, subscribe to the CineFlicks News.
