Jason Momoa starrer knocked it out of the park with its first installment. Aquaman hit the billion-dollar mark at the worldwide box office. It was released in China ahead of its domestic market, and the response was highly favorable. Word-of-mouth played a massive factor in its $291.80 million pre-booking sales.
Aquaman 2 Initial Response
This time around, things are not as favorable for Aquaman And The Lost Kingdom. There are multiple factors involved. The superhero film witnessed numerous delays, leading to an impact on the initial buzz. Plus, there have been countless negative reports on re-shoots, role reduction, etc, that have made the audience lose trust. Amber Heard’s defamation case with Johnny Depp also led to boycott demands by a section of cine-goers.
