Aquaman 2 was almost certainly in the works after the Aquaman first’s $1.148 million box office success. After the underwhelming response to Justice League, Aquaman’s DCEU debut in 2018 was welcomed with wildly unexpected success, elevating the character to new heights of popularity. It’s safe to assume that no one is making fun of Aquaman talking to fish because Jason Momoa is Arthur Curry. He’d eventually hurl a shark at you.
James Wan is once again directing Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, which is now in production. Wan showed in the first film that he could handle all the underwater chaos. A huge sea creature that guards Aquaman’s comic book-inspired outfit has a voice given by Julie Andrews, and did we also mention that?
Wan might this time include a breakdancing crab and an electric instrument seahorse. They might form a band, perhaps. But we’ve entirely lost our way. Thankfully, we have a lot of information about the superhero movie sequel thanks to the director, the actors, and DC FanDome 2021. So let’s examine what is currently known about Aquaman 2’s release date and grab our golden tridents.
Although Wan claims it will promote the DCEU, it is unclear why Arthur is searching for (yet another) hidden location connected to Atlantis. The director promised the DC FanDome audience that the hero of the sequel would “visit so many other realms.”
Aquaman won’t be the only one soaking in the views for the entire two hours, of course. Yahya Abdul-Mateen II and Patrick Wilson will both make a comeback as the Black Manta and Orm/Ocean Master, respectively.
The last time Momoa’s hero was seen, David Hyde/Black Manta made a threat to get revenge on him for killing his father and defeating him in battle. But he also teams up with the Atlantis expert Dr. Stephen Shin. Behind him, Aquaman needs to be cautious.

Who plays Aquaman 2 ?
It goes without saying that Jason Momoa will return to play the title character in the major role, but he’ll don a different attire this time. Although the orange and green look is well-known, the actor posted a picture of the beautiful dark blue and silver outfit from the sequel on Instagram.
The character’s covert attire is still needed, despite the new appearance’s stylistic similarities to the comic book’s stealth suit.
Since the celebrity just told Ellen Degeneres that he needs surgery due to injuries he sustained while filming, be prepared to witness some really significant stunts in the sequel. Temuera Morrison, who previously portrayed Jango and Boba Fett, is coming back to play Arthur’s father; maybe, this time, he gets treated royally.
Even though Warner Bros. has come under fire for the actress’ most recent legal battles with her ex-husband, Johnny Depp, Amber Heard is still set to return as Mera of Xebel.
Because the Fantastic Beasts actor left his role as the evil wizard Gellert Grindelwald, many fans demanded that Heard be removed from her key role in The Lost Kingdom. Despite rumours that the firm has severely cut the actress’ screen time after they decided to support her, she will still be in the sequel.
Dolph Lundgren is also portraying Mera’s father, King Nereus of Xebel. Dolph just declared that filming was finished in an Instagram post.
The roles of Black Manta and Ocean Master will once again be played by Yahya Abdul-Mateen II and Patrick Wilson.
Also siding with the bad guys is Randall Park. The sequel will feature entirely new characters, such as Stingray (Jani Zhao) and Karshon (Indya Moore), even on its journey to The Lost Kingdom.
Release date
Arthur Curry will make his big-screen comeback in Aquaman 2 on December 25, 2023. The sequel was one of the uncommon films in which the worldwide pandemic had little to no effect. James Wan wanted to focus on Malignant before returning to the DC Extended Universe, so he already committed to directing it in 2019. This is the main reason for this.
