Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom will be released in December 2023, and information about the impending DCEU movie has begun to emerge. Jason Momoa made his Justice League debut as Arthur Curry, a.k.a. Aquaman, before appearing in his first DCEU solo picture a year later. Aquaman was a box office commercial and critical success, delving into Curry’s past and claim to the throne of Atlantis in fascinating detail.
