Jason Momoa’s Aquaman 2 Shatters Irritating DCU Record
After the terrible box office failure of The Flash, James Gunn’s DCU is all set to make a unique record for their upcoming movie Aquaman 2. Even though the release of the movie is only 4 months away, its trailer is nowhere to be seen.
Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom starring Jason Momoa and Amber Heard is set to make its way to the theaters on December 25, 2023. With only 114 days left to its release, this movie is all set to make a new DCU record for having the shortest window between the release of a film’s first trailer and its theatrical release date.

This upcoming movie by Jason Momoa is among the DCU movies whose release date has not been affected by the ongoing WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes. Even though the release date of the movie has not been changed, its trailer has kept it in the headlines.
With one of the biggest delays in the release of its trailer, speculation has been around if the movie will do any better than the recently released movie by the studio.
The Reason Behind the Delay of Jason Momoa’s Aquaman 2 trailer
Even though there has not been an official statement as to why the trailer of Aquaman 2 has been delayed, speculations have been around that the trailer is being held back to avoid any kind of controversies concerning one of the movie stars Amber Heard.
At the center of the problem is said to be legal controversy surrounding Mega star Amber Heard, who will certainly start interacting with the fans after the release of the trailer. Not only this test screenings for the movie raised doubts about how audiences would ultimately react to it, which prompted some rather extensive reshoots to provide the greatest results for all parties. This has also been seen as one of the reasons for the delay in the release of the trailer.
Even though the trailer of the movie will eventually come out before its release, it has already set a new record for James Gunn’s DCU. Despite the new records, many are concerned that this stunt by the studio will affect the box office result of the movie.
