The movie’s synopsis reveals that Aquaman will team up with his imprisoned brother Orm to defeat the formidable Black Manta and protect their kingdom from irreversible destruction.
The first trailer has been released for the sequel and, although it’s short but sweet, it teases more fun—and a jacked Patrick Wilson to boot.
Aquaman
The first film follows the story of Arthur Curry (Momoa), a half-human, half-Atlantean reluctant hero, who must embrace his destiny as the rightful ruler of the underwater kingdom of Atlantis. When his half-brother, Orm (Wilson), seeks to unite the underwater kingdoms to wage war on the surface world, Arthur embarks on a quest to stop him.
Along the way, he is joined by Mera (played by Amber Heard), a fierce warrior, and together, they confront mythical creatures, uncover the secrets of Atlantis, and seek to prevent a catastrophic war. At the same time, Arthur learns to embrace his heritage and become Aquaman.
Plot of ‘Lost Kingdom’
Warner Bros. and DC released the following synopsis for the upcoming movie: ‘Having failed to defeat Aquaman the first time, Black Manta, still driven by the need to avenge his father’s death, will stop at nothing to take Aquaman down once and for all. This time Black Manta is more formidable than ever before, wielding the power of the mythic Black Trident, which unleashes an ancient and malevolent force.’
‘To defeat him, Aquaman turns to his imprisoned brother Orm, the former King of Atlantis, to forge an unlikely alliance. Together, they must set aside their differences in order to protect their kingdom and save Aquaman’s family, and the world, from irreversible destruction.’
Release date
The movie will hit the theaters worldwide on December 20, 2023.
