Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom director James Wan has commented on the possibility of a sequel in the DC Universe, despite the film's controversies.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT James Wan, director of Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, has commented on the potential to direct Aquaman 3, despite early backlash aimed at DC Studios' upcoming 2023 sequel. With filmmaker James Gunn and producer Peter Safran rebooting the DCEU into the new DC Universe, the fate of Jason Momoa's Arthur Curry, a.k.a. Aquaman has been left uncertain.
Speaking to Empire Magazine, Aquaman and Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom director James Wan has spoken out about the possibility for a third Aquaman project in the DC Universe's future. Noting that he'd "be open to doing another," Wan keeps the opportunity for his return in the DC Universe's future open, but mentions that the new direction for DC Studios' rebooted franchise is still unclear.
I haven’t directed a third movie before, so I’d be open to doing another if I got the same freedom I’ve had on these first two. I’m not sure what direction are going in, though, so who knows? I’ve learned to never say never.
It's possible that James Wan could return to direct a DC Universe Aquaman reboot, even if that doesn't feature Momoa as the titular hero. 2018's Aquaman still stands as the most successful project in the DCEU, bringing in over $1 billion at the global box office, but hopes unfortunately aren't as high for the 2023 sequel. Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom's production has been shrouded in controversy, which could damage the film's performance.
