CinemaCon goers were treated to an early screening of the official trailer for Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, boosting anticipation for the film’s December release. Details about the film have leaked out ahead of the trailer’s internet debut. The sequel to the 2019 Aquaman film continues off right where the original left off and promises to be just as exciting for fans of the franchise. Jason Momoa, who plays Aquaman, will battle Patrick Wilson, who plays stepbrother Orm, and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, who plays Black Manta. Some “buddy-comedy vibes” are said to be present in the trailer’s tone of humor. Audiences will be laughing and gasping at the same time as it plays off the dynamic between Aquaman and Orm. Fans will be happy to see Nicole Kidman’s Atlanna return, and they’ll get a sneak glimpse at the assault on the surface world by Dr. Stephen Shin and Black Manta right off the bat in the teaser. Mera (Amber Heard) also shows up, this time dressed in a sleek white outfit. In light of the turmoil surrounding Mera’s legal struggle with Johnny Depp, many have been wondering whether she would even appear in the film at all. Producer Peter Safran defended the choice to retain Heard in the picture, claiming that they had to do what was best for the movie. More than 4.62 million people have signed a petition calling for Heard’s dismissal because of the scandal surrounding her. However, Safran has stated that the producers will not cave to fan pressure. Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom has a stellar ensemble cast and is set to be a box office smash with its spectacular action sequences, touching moments, and hilarious comedy. On December 20, 2023, the picture will be released in cinemas, and audiences around can’t wait to watch it.
