Aquaman And The Lost Kingdom Advance Booking: As we eagerly anticipate its release on Friday, December 22, "Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom" emerges not only as a follow-up to the 2018 installment but also signifies the final chapter of the DC Extended Universe (DCEU) before the much-anticipated franchise reboot, guided by the collaboration of James Gunn and Peter Safran. This upcoming movie promises to be a pivotal moment in the DCEU narrative, building on the foundation laid by its predecessor while setting the stage for the exciting new direction envisioned by the creative minds behind the reboot.
Amidst the prevailing negativity surrounding the sequel and less-than-optimistic box office projections for what could potentially be Jason Momoa's final portrayal of Arthur Curry, critics tasked with reviewing this Warner Bros. production have received an update that raises further concerns about the film's reception. The stakes are high as fans eagerly await the cinematic fate of the beloved Aquaman within the broader landscape of the DCEU.
Aquaman 2 Advance Booking
According to trade analyst Luiz Fernando, ‘Aquaman 2’ has garnered an impressive $296K in advance booking collections on Monday alone. According to a report in Koimoi, the film, led by Jason Momoa, has accumulated a total of $977K in pre-booking sales during the period from December 19 to 25 in China. Notably, these figures slightly surpass the pre-booking sales of The Marvels ($948K) and The Batman ($957K). As anticipation builds, Aquaman 2 seems to be making waves in the box office waters, positioning itself favorably among other major film releases.
According to a report in Economic Times, the anticipated opening weekend for ‘Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom’ is currently projected to yield a domestic box office revenue ranging between $32 million and $42 million. In contrast, its predecessor, 'Aquaman,' achieved a noteworthy $67 million in its opening weekend, a figure that is not considerably distant. What stands out, though, is the global triumph of Aquaman, which surpassed the significant milestone of $1 billion in box office earnings. As the sequel navigates its opening weekend, industry observers closely watch to see how it fares in comparison to its predecessor's remarkable performance on the global stage.
