In a little over a month, audiences will be treated to Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, the long-awaited sequel to 2018's billion-dollar hit Aquaman. Thus far, the marketing for the upcoming DC film is already promising massive spectacle and some surprising characters, and Warner Bros. Pictures has released a new poster ahead of the film's debut next month.

The newest Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom poster, which you can check out below, showcases Arthur Curry / Aquaman (Jason Momoa) and Orm the Ocean Master (Patrick Wilson) in their new costumes, with a promise that "the tide is turning" within the film.

Is Aquaman 2 Delayed?

Earlier this month, it was confirmed that Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom had its release date slightly moved, from December 20th to a new release date of December 22nd.

The film will be one of three Warner Bros. titles to be debuting in theaters that holiday weekend, in addition to Wonka and The Color Purple.

Will There Be an Aquaman 3?

At the moment, a third Aquaman film has yet to be greenlit by DC, especially amid the DC Studios changes led by James Gunn and Peter Safran. Still, Wan has indicated that The Lost Kingdom functions as a standalone story, regardless of whatever canon it falls into at the end of the day.

"Well, Aquaman – even the first film – has always been a very standalone film," Wan told ComicBook.com earlier this year. "That was always our approach: that it kind of lives in its own world, and that's kind of how we've approached The Lost Kingdom as well. You know, people love Jason Momoa; people love him playing this role; and people love the action visuals of this space and this world. And that's what we're doing: we're taking it to the next level and we are still expanding – and just any fans of Aquaman the character, that love Black Manta, this is the next level and I'm very excited to finally put out there to show them what we've been working on all these years."

What Is Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom About?

In Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, which arrives in theaters on December 25th, when an ancient power is unleashed, Aquaman must forge an uneasy alliance with an unlikely ally to protect Atlantis, and the world, from irreversible devastation. Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom will see the return of Jason Momoa as Aquaman, Patrick Wilson as Orm, Amber Heard as Mera, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II as Black Manta, and Randall Park as Stephen Shin. Jani Zhao will play new character Stingray, Indya Moore will play Karshon, and Vincent Regan will play Atlan, who was previously portrayed by Graham McTavish in Aquaman. Pilou Asbaek has also joined the cast in a mystery role.

Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom is directed by James Wan, with a script from David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick. Producers include Wan and DC Studios co-CEO Peter Safran.
