Latest Updates On Aquaman 2: There Will Be Amber Heard And Batman?

Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom will premiere on December 25th, 2023, after being postponed several times. However, fans are still anticipating the latest updates on Aquaman 2 with so many questions. Let’s find out in this post. 

#1. Will Amber Heard Being Cut Out?

This is one of the most asked questions ever since the lawsuit between her and her ex-husband Johnny Depp happened. At first, most of us took her side and blamed Depp for his acts. Even Warner Bros. Pictures fired him from the movie Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore. Eventually, he won the lawsuit and was not charged with guilt. Then, Heard is the one who is in trouble now. The petition against her participation in the sequel of Aquaman got over 4,500,000 signatures up to today. It means the situation is extremely serious now.
Otherwise, her spokesperson clarified that her role Mera would not be recast. It means that she will still appear in the upcoming movie. Fans are rather disappointed with this decision of Warner Bros. and many have stated that they would not go to the theater to see the film. 
This will be a significant loss to its performance at the box office. Aquaman is so far one of the most anticipated franchises from the DC Extended Universe, directed by well-known James Wan. Jason Momoa, Willem Dafoe, Patrick Wilson, Nicole Kidman and various famous actors participate in the cast with excellent performances.

#2. Is There Any Batman Going To Be In The Film?

It seems unmatched when Batman shows up in Atlantis. Anyways, Arthur Curry’s reunion with his companion from the Justice League will be an interesting plot twist to his underwater adventure. Previously, Momoa teased about this special appearance while promoting his Apple TV series See. “There could be more or less or even more Batmans in it. Who knows? You will only know a little bit.", he claimed. 
Surprised by these updates on Aquaman 2, fans are questioning whether Ben Affleck or Michael Keaton will have a special return to the screens, portraying Batman. More than that, there might be both of them or even more (just like what happened to Marvel’s Spider-Man: No Way Home).
It is still unclear now what will happen to Aquaman and his kingdoms under the sea in the sequel. Besides, Aquaman and Wonder Woman are currently the essential superheroes of the Justice League as the most notable names which are Superman and Batman are under an uncertain status. Obviously, his next steps will contribute significantly to the upcoming events in the DCEU. 

#3. Who Is The Villain In Aquaman 2?

At the mid credits of Aquaman, it showed that Black Manta was still alive and he would definitely keep looking for Arthur to take revenge. He was rescued by Stephen Shin, a marine biologist. Shin will also take a vital role in the sequel as he is studying Aquaman and Atlantis for a long time. He craves for more details about the underwater kingdoms as he believes that Atlantis is real.
