Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom is an upcoming American superhero film based on DC Comics and starring the character Aquaman. Produced by DC Films, The Safran Company, and Atomic Monster Productions, and distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures, it is intended to be the sequel to Aquaman (2018) and the thirteenth film in the DC Extended Universe (DCEU). The film will be directed by James Wan from a screenplay written by David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick and stars Jason Momoa as Arthur Curry/Aquaman alongside Amber Heard, Patrick Wilson, Dolph Lundgren, and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II.

Momoa pitched a story for an Aquaman sequel during production of the first film, but Wan didn’t want to rush the next one. He agreed to oversee the sequel’s development in January 2019, and Johnson-McGoldrick signed on to write the script a month later. Wan was confirmed to direct the film in August 2020 and said it will expand on the world-building of the first Aquaman. He announced the sequel’s title in June 2021, and filming will begin later that month in London. Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom is scheduled for release on December 16, 2022.
