“Aloha DC Fandome I apologize for the four year wait. Oh my gosh…since 2017! however I’m extremely pleased of the sequel since it’s dealing with a great deal of problems environmentally, stakes are higher, as well as I’m just ecstatic since I had a huge part of it with my kid James (Wan). The tides are changing!”
From there we catch looks of behind-the-scenes shoots as well as short interviews with a few of the stars, including Patrick Wilson (King Orm/Ocean Master) as well as Yahya Abdul-Mateen II (Black Manta). While we have already been guessing that Aquaman as well as the lost Kingdom will function Necrus aka the “Black City” that’s never discovered in the exact same place twice, director James Wan seemed to all however verify our suspicions by stating that Aquaman 2 is a globetrotting story as well as that the motion picture will bring audiences to different worlds. maybe the plot will include chasing Necrus around the planet, trying to catch it?
Wan likewise pointed out that Black Manta will continue to play a major function in Aquaman’s life as he’s still seeking vengeance for the King of Atlantis’s part in his father’s death. Frustratingly though, there’s still no hint as to Pilou Asbaek’s function in the movie. lots of believe he’s likewise likely to be a villain, namely Necrus’s ruler, Mongo. Are we ever going to discover out this year??

One quote that caught my interest though was when Wan pointed out that the motion picture “isn’t terrified to accept its fantasy.” It makes sense considering that they’re checking out other worlds, however this likewise hinted at new fantastical creatures as well as maybe a lot more magic? It’s interesting, particularly considering that we had talked about the fantasy element of Shang-Chi as well as the legend of the ten Rings on the Shang-Chi spoiler podcast discussion. Whether this is a pattern that superhero motion pictures are going to begin embracing wholeheartedly or not, I would be ecstatic to see a lot more fantasy world-building, particularly in a motion picture like Aquaman as well as the lost Kingdom.
Overall the general consensus is that the motion picture will be a great deal of fun as well as audiences can expect a lot more action-packed awesomeness. As producer Peter Safran said, “We turned the dial as much as eleven.” I can not wait!
