James Wan’s Aquaman made a ‘splash’ worldwide when it released back in 2018. It gave DC films a foothold on a fanbase they were slowly losing to Marvel. While Jared Leto’s experimental Joker didn’t work well, the new Jason Momoa tatted Aquaman was something everyone adored. And now, Momoa has confirmed we’re getting a sequel.
In a recent interview with Entertainment Tonight, the actor let us know to expect a “way bigger” sequel in comparison to the first standalone film. “There’s a lot more in store on so many more levels. There’s going to be a lot. It’s way bigger! I’m really stoked at the fan base and what we did with the movie and just went into Warner Bros in D.C. and said, ‘You know, I have some ideas,’ and, they love them and James [Wan, director] and everyone is like, ‘We’re all taking it in. We’re excited to do another one,’” he said.
Momoa also shared his thoughts on his step-daughter, Zoe Kravitz joining the DC family after news surfaced of Kravitz being cast as Catwoman in the upcoming Matt Reeves-directed Batman film which stars Robert Pattinson. “That’s actually the first thing I said to her — ‘Your life’s going to change,’” Momoa said. “I’ve been hiding for a good solid 18 years and all of a sudden, Aquaman happened and boom! So, that’s the one thing I don’t even know if I’m prepared for — she’s going to be huge. She’s beautiful, she’s talented. She’s going to kill it and [I’ll be like], ‘Well, welcome to the team baby!’” the actor excitedly mentioned.
