The action-packed trailer for Jason Momoa’s highly anticipatedAquaman and the Lost Kingdomrecently dropped, teasing several new and returning DC characters. The action-packedAquaman 2trailer unveils the return of comic book villains Black Manta and Ocean Master, as well as ally Vulko. But Amber Heard’s Mera is conspicuously following the controversy surrounding the movie. Let’s dive in and break down all the DC superheroes and villains revealed.
Black Manta Seeks Revenge on Aquaman
The trailer opens with a voiceover byYahya Abdul-Mateen IIaka Black Manta, Aquaman’s ruthless archenemy. After their battle in the first film, Manta is back with a deadly armored suit seeking vengeance.
“I will kill Aquaman!” Manta declares in thetrailer. His upgraded comic-accurate helmet and weapons signal serious danger ahead for the King of Atlantis. Their epic grudge match will likely drive much of the sequel’s conflict.

Ocean Master is Also Back for More
Though imprisoned at the end ofAquaman, Orm Marius aka Ocean Master seemingly has escaped captivity. Actor Patrick Wilson is shown wielding Ocean Master’s iconic comic book look, including his bright green and orange armor.
Given Ocean Master is Aquaman’s infamous half-brother and frequent antagonist, his prominent inclusion in the trailer implies they will again clash over the dominion of Atlantis. Their family feud looks to take center stage once more.

New cast members include Vincent Regan as Atlan, Jani Zhao as Stingray, Indya Moore as Karshon, and Pilou Asbaek in an undisclosed role.
Will Amber Heard’s Role Fireback on Franchise?
WhileAquaman 2brings back various supporting characters, the focus remains around Amber Heard’s Mera after her legal troubles.
According toThe Direct,Amberacknowledged the deadline and said:
“Oh, of course. These are very different kinds of projects representing two very different ends of the spectrum in my industry. There’s a ton of pressure on these big franchise movies, with millions and millions of dollars at stake, and compromises are part of trying to make it the most successful thing it can be. Then on the other end of the spectrum is a small indie film like ‘In The Fire,’ a work of art and work of love, with nowhere near the same resources, and so there are compromises there. The best luck you can have as an actor is to be able to balance both.”
Amber also said she is honoured to be the part of franchise even after the defamation case
“‘Aquaman,’ that franchise and the machinery behind it, I’m very honored, honored to be a part of that. And then there are these small passion projects like ‘In The Fire,’ where I’m proud to have gotten to know the filmmaker and the cast, and we got dirty together, to breathe life into this story. There’s something cool about that, and I think success is an actor who is able to have both those things.” –The Direct
In a new trailer released Amber Heard was seen running towards the house on fire at a wide angle according toThe Direct.

While the truth will surface eventually whetherAquaman and the Lost Kingdomcan convey following late DCU flops, the general visibility of Golden Heard could be a calculate the film’s presentation. All things considered, Heard isn’t the first dubious DCU star in quite a while.
Ezra Mill operator’s lawful issues paving the way to The Glimmer were similarly open, persuading some to think they adversely impacted ticket deals. While Mill’s going on varies from Heard’s, and she plays a supporting person and not a lead, the reality remains that she – like Mill’s operator – is a dubious figure and will be challenging to make sense of, also market to fans
But regardless of cast drama, the sequel’s trailer delivers a thrilling first look loaded with callbacks to Aquaman’s rich comic history. When the ultra-hyped superhero epic finally hits theaters, epic oceanic battles between fan-favorite DC icons will surely ensue.
