Aquaman 2: What We Know So Far
In 2018, James Wans Aquaman became a remarkably surprising smash hit. Nobody really knew what to expect from it for multiple reasons, given that it was following the disappointing release of Justice League; centered on a character who had never had his own live-action solo movie; and was facing stiff competition at the box office in the form of Mary Poppins Returns, Bumblebee, and Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. To everyones shock, however, the film not only became a billion dollar hit, but now stands as the biggest worldwide earner in the history of DC Comics adaptations.
Naturally, the excitement that the project generated immediately led Warner Bros. to solidify a future for the franchise, and within a few weeks of Aquamans release we learned about their plans to develop an Aquaman 2. But what will the project be about? Who will be making it? When will we actually get to see it? These are all major questions that were here to discuss.
In this latest edition of our What We Know So Far guides, were going to break down all of the information thats currently available about Aquaman 2, and provide you with all of the most recent news that weve heard about the project. So, without further ado, lets dive in!
What Is The Aquaman 2 Release Date?Its typical for Hollywood studios to try and produce sequels as quickly as they possibly can. After all, they dont want to let the heat of a burgeoning franchise die down, and the more time that passes means theres more opportunities for audiences to be distracted by other big properties. That being said, Aquaman 2 is taking an extra minute to find its way to theaters, as Warner Bros. has announced that the blockbuster follow-up is currently scheduled to be released on December 22, 2022.
So, why is Aquaman 2 coming out about four years after its predecessor? For starters, producer Peter Safran has noted that the filmmakers behind the movie dont feel the need to rush the project, believing that giving the sequel the most development time possible will ultimately be beneficial for the final product. But thats not the only reason. Not only is the film going to need some legitimate time to actually get made from a logistics standpoint (its not super easy creating those underwater environments), but there are also many other DC Extended Universe titles in the works that the studio is developing between now and December 2022.
Arguably, the biggest of these is Wonder Woman 1984, which will be coming out in summer 2020, but they are also in the midst of making Cathy Yans Birds of Prey (And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn), Matt Reeves The Batman, and James Gunns Suicide Squad 2. All of those blockbusters are set to come out between now and December 2022, and will deserve their own special attention from WB.
What Is The Aquaman 2 Rating?The world of comic book movies has changed a great deal over the years. For the longest time, the concept of an R-rated superhero blockbuster seemed absolutely insane, as just by the nature of the rating a project would presumably be dismissing what was seen as a massively important demographic: teenagers. Then Tim Millers Deadpool came along and completely shattered that notion forever by making nearly $800 million worldwide. After that, the entire concept became much more acceptable, and we have seen multiple examples since.
That being said, audiences shouldnt expect Aquaman 2 to receive any rating other than a PG-13 when it finally hits theaters.
Admittedly, final decisions in this arena arent typically made until the film is near completion and the MPAA gets a look at the product thats heading to theaters, but its basically impossible to believe at this point that Aquaman 2 will be made with anything other than a PG-13 rating in mind. After all, its not really a character who is known for R-rated behavior in the comics, and the first movie functioned perfectly fine without any kind of extreme violence, overt sexuality, or adult language. So while there isnt really any kind of official word available in this arena, its still pretty obvious what direction the project will go in.
Who Is Writing And Directing Aquaman 2?Since breaking out in 2004, director James Wan has become one of the industrys most significant franchise masterminds. After all, his career not only started with the launching of the Saw movies, but since then he has also brought to life the terror featured in the worlds of Insidious and The Conjuring (not to mention the fact that he also directed Furious 7). The filmmaker is no stranger to sequels at this point, and is definitely going to be involved with Aquaman 2 as a producer at the very least, but whats not 100% clear yet is if hes also going to be working on the film as a director.
While James Wan may be great at starting new series, he typically doesnt stick around for too long in the directors chair, as hes only actually helmed two direct sequels to his movies: Insidious: Chapter 2 and The Conjuring 2. To his credit, he seems to prefer creating new worlds over repeatedly revisiting them. That being said, the idea of him directing Aquaman 2 isnt off the table yet, and one can imagine that Warner Bros. is doing everything in their power to bring him back.
Were still waiting for final decisions on the director front, but at the very least Aquaman 2 does have a writer set who's working on the script. David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick, who was a co-writer on the first Aquaman, has been hired to pen the script for the sequel. The filmmaker has a bit of sequel experience on his resume already, having written Wrath Of The Titans, The Conjuring 2, and the upcoming The Conjuring 3, and it seems that Warner Bros. trusts him with the responsibility of structuring a proper follow-up to the biggest DC Comics adaptation ever.
Arthur Curry a.k.a. AquamanJason Momoa has had many ups and downs over the course of his career from playing Khal Drogo on Game of Thrones to his disastrous Conan The Barbarian remake but now hes found some real stability courtesy of the DC Extended Universe. He first won a lot of people over with his charismatic turn as Arthur Curry a.k.a. Aquaman in Justice League, but the solo movie was really his show, and now the actor is a bona fide blockbuster star.
Aquaman, of course, went through some major changes in the 2018 movie, and it will be fascinating to see how he develops as a character through the events that play out in Aquaman 2. Initially the guy was seriously rough around the edges, being a part of two very different worlds, but belonging to neither of them, but he became a very different hero by the end of the debut solo movie.
Not only did he finally begin understanding his place in the world, but he also found himself declared as the king of the seven underwater kingdoms including Atlantis. But what kind of ruler will he actually be? Will he have what it takes to make the hard decisions that are required in the job? Will he be able to forge peace during threats of war? These are all big, lingering questions that will surely be addressed in the upcoming follow-up.
MeraOne could make a very strong argument that Arthur Curry would never have been able to ascend to the throne of Atlantis without the assistance of Mera in Aquaman, as she was there to support him every step of the way. She was the one who first got him involved in the fight against Orm in order to save the world; she saved his life multiple times; and all throughout the story provided crucial information that allowed Arthur to find the Trident of Neptune and solidify his claim. She was absolutely vital to the events of the blockbuster, and one can imagine that wont change in the slightest when it comes to the sequel.
While there hasnt been official word just yet, Amber Heard is expected to reprise her role as Mera in Aquaman 2, presumably working closely with the new king of Atlantis and making sure that he makes not only the right calls, but operates as a just and righteous leader. Exactly what her story will entail beyond the relationship is currently a mystery, but, hopefully, well get more information on that front as more details come out about the development of the project.
Black MantaOne of the biggest question marks going into the making of the first Aquaman was in regard to how the film would treat one of the heroes most iconic villains: Black Manta. After all, while comic book fans have loved the look of the undersea antagonist for decades, it was unknown if the character would actually properly translate to the big screen (particularly his large, wide helmet). As it turned out, however, Black Manta, as played by the awesome Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, was one of the best parts of James Wans 2018 blockbuster. And, while his role was ultimately fairly limited in terms of screen time, that should change a lot in the upcoming Aquaman 2.
Obviously the first movie was primarily dedicated to establishing the origin story of its titular superhero, but fans also got to see how Black Manta became Black Manta in the DC Extended Universe. Initially we meet him as a mercenary pirate pulling jobs with his father (Michael Beach), but he sees his life get turned upside down during a job gone wrong. Aquaman not only manages to stop a hijacking mission that hes on, but also watches his dad die as the Atlantian refuses to help him. He swears vengeance against Arthur Curry, and we expect to see a lot more of that vendetta in Aquaman 2, especially because hes getting help from a key ally
Dr. Stephen ShinOnly being added to the film during reshoots, Randall Parks Dr. Stephen Shin didnt exactly have an extensive role in the first Aquaman, but he definitely made an impression living up to the expectations of his comic book counterpart. Dr. Shin is a scientist who is obsessed with the existence of Atlantis, and while he has a tremendously hard time convincing anybody that he is right, he also never wavers in his commitment to his theory. Unfortunately, his passion may take him to some pretty dark places in Aquaman 2, as he will, apparently, be teaming up with Black Manta as part of the movies plot.
We know about this team-up courtesy of the end credits scene in Aquaman, which primarily centered on Dr. Shin and Black Manta. Beginning in the follow-up to the battle in Sicily, Italy, Shin rescues the laser-shooting antagonist as he is injured and floating in the ocean, and brings him back to his private lab. After healing Manta, Shin proffers a deal: if the former promises to help prove the existence of Atlantis, the latter will do what he can to support the mission of vengeance against Aquaman.
VulkoPlayed by Willem Dafoe, Vulko was introduced to audiences as one of the most influential people in the life of Arthur Curry, as he was the one who taught the future Aquaman about Atlantis when he was a kid, and even went as far as to actually train him to use his abilities. They were estranged for many years afterward, but through all that time Vulko remained loyal to the heir to the throne, and even when it potentially would cost him everything, he did what he could to support Arthur through the events of Aquaman.
Its not currently known if Willem Dafoe will return to reprise his role as Vulko in Aquaman 2, but its probably a safe bet. After all, he not only survived the events of the 2018 blockbuster, but he will also likely be a key advisor to Arthur as he tries to figure out what kind of king he is going to be. Hopefully well get more specifics as we get closer to the film getting made.
OrmJames Wan and Patrick Wilson clearly enjoy working together, as Aquaman was actually their fifth collaboration as director and actor with the star playing the movies principal antagonist, Orm. It was perhaps because of this relationship that the blockbuster made the decision to not kill off the former king of Atlantis, also known as Ocean Master, and instead have him imprisoned for his actions. Obviously this means that hes still alive in the DC Extended Universe, and could potentially be back for Aquaman 2, but exactly what his role would be is unclear at this point.
Based on the information mentioned above, it definitely seems like Black Manta and Dr. Stephen Shin are being set up as the primary villains in the sequel, but that doesnt mean that Orm wont have some kind of role to play in the action. Patrick Wilson has gone on the record saying that he doesnt expect that he will be the big bad of Aquaman 2, but also noted that hed be happy to reprise the role should James Wan make the request. Well just have to wait and see as more information about the blockbuster comes to light.
