Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom will see Arthur Curry/Aquaman join forces with his half-brother Orm (Patrick Wilson), who’s been imprisoned at the end of the last film after trying to destroy the surface world. The duo must do everything in their power to stop Black Manta (Yahya Abdul-Mateen II), who’s now wielding the power of the mythic Black Trident, as he tries to avenge his father’s death.

The film’s star-studded cast will also include Amber Heard as Mera, Dolph Lundgren as Nereus, Randall Park as Dr. Stephen Shin, Temuera Morrison as Tom Curry, and Nicole Kidman as Atlanna, Arthur and Orm’s mother. James Wan is returning as a director, while David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick wrote the script.

The production of Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom wrapped up in early 2022, and the film was hit with several delays due to the COVID-19 pandemic and post-production setbacks. It’s now set to be released on December 20 by Warner Bros. Pictures.

Taylor-Joy will be in charge of replacing Charlize Theron in the role of strong-willed and powerful Imperator Furiosa from Mad Max: Fury Road. Her casting was first announced back in March, and Theron admitted that the replacement was “a tough one to swallow”, but she’s confident that George Miller will do the justice to the character.

“It’s a little heartbreaking, for sure. I really love that character, and I’m so grateful that I had a small part in creating her. She will forever be someone I think of and reflect on fondly. Obviously, I would love to see that story continue,” Theron told The Hollywood Reporter.

Miller admitted that he previously considered using de-aging CG on Theron instead of re-casting her, but felt that the technology isn’t advanced enough. The spin-off will tell Furiosa’s origin story before she joined forces with Max Rockatansky in Fury Road, but it still doesn’t have an official release date.

Variety reports that while no official deal has been signed, it is safe to assumed that Abdul-Mateen is the star of Jordan Peele’s sequel to the horror film. 

The project was announced last November. Peele will produce and co-write the “spiritual sequel” to the 1992 original. Nia DaCosta (Little Woods) is set to direct. The sequel will return to the neighborhood where the legend began: the now-gentrified section of Chicago where the Cabrini-Green housing projects once stood.

Abdul-Mateen other credits include Netflix’s The Get Down. He is also set to star next in Peele’s thriller Us HBO’s Watchmen series.

Candyman is expected to hit theaters in the summer of 2020.
