BREAKING: Jason Momoa’s highly anticipated film, Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, is set to debut on Netflix on November 27, 2023, marking a major moment for fans and the streaming platform. This sequel to the blockbuster original has generated buzz despite a mixed reception from critics.
This release comes at a triumphant time for Momoa, following his success in the Apple TV series Chief of War and the upcoming Minecraft Movie. The actor also stars in the drama In the Hand of Dante, which premiered at the Venice Film Festival, alongside Oscar Isaac and Gerard Butler.
Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom has gained a reputation for dividing audiences, with a stark contrast between critic and audience scores. On the review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds a dismal 33% rating from critics, while audiences have rated it a much more favorable 79%—an improvement over the original’s 72% score.
“Jason Momoa remains a capable and committed leading man, but even DC diehards may feel that Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom sticks to familiar waters,” the critic consensus reads.
The film’s plot sees Aquaman teaming up with his estranged brother, Orm, to combat the formidable Black Manta, who wields the powerful Black Trident. The stakes are high as they strive to protect Atlantis and prevent global destruction.
In addition to Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, Netflix will feature a host of new arrivals in November, including the Oscar-winning biopic King Richard, Blue Beetle, Christopher Nolan’s Tenet, and the musical biopic Elvis.
This release is not just about entertainment; it represents a significant moment for the DCEU as it transitions into the streaming era. Fans eager to see how the story unfolds can catch the film on Netflix later this month.
As excitement builds, viewers will have the opportunity to decide for themselves if Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom lives up to its blockbuster title. Don’t miss the chance to stream this divisive superhero sequel starting November 27.
