Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom is releasing this Friday, and the review embargo of the film has not been lifted yet. The hype around the film has been relatively low compared to the first look in addition to the low box office tracking. Despite all that, Jason Momoa and Patrick Wilson have been enthusiastic about the film and have been promoting it heavily.

The film was released in China earlier than other countries two days before on December 20, 2023, and it has now received an aggregate rating/score from audiences. The film’s reception in the country will surely excite other audiences that are waiting for the film.

Jason Momoa‘s Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom is finally released in theatres this Friday. The film is set to be the last film in the DCU, and fans are hoping that the film will prove to be a good sendoff of the current DCU before James Gunn’s reboot in 2025.

The film has already been released in China two days early, and the film has received an aggregate audience rating in the country. In a post uploaded by Home of DCU on X, the film received an overwhelmingly high score of 9.1  from the audiences on Moayan. The post also claims that this rating is equivalent to an A CinemaScore in the states.

The film’s hype has been comparatively low than the first film, and its box office tracking is also underwhelming. This positive news may increase fans’ anticipation for the film, and maybe the film’s box-office performance may get a bump in the weekend. It remains to be seen how the film fares in its opening weekend and what audiences all over the world think of the film.

Jason Momoa wants to play Aquaman as long as fans want him

Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom may be Jason Momoa’s last film as Aquaman as James Gunn is rebooting the IP with 2025’s Superman: Legacy. The actor is currently promoting the film (which also stars Patrick Wilson and Amber Heard), and he talked about the experiences of making the sequel and the future of the character in the franchise.

Momoa talked to Entertainment Tonight and shared that he would love to continue playing the character if Gunn wanted him in his DCU. However, the character is not included in Gunn’s initial plans for his new DCU. The actor said,

“The truth of it is — I mean, if the audience loves it, then there’s a possibility. I don’t “necessarily want it to be the end … [but] I don’t think it’s really, like, a choice.”

It remains to be seen whether Momoa will continue to be a part of the DCU in some capacity in the future. For now, fans can watch Aquaman 2 in theatres on December 22, 2023.
