The DC Extended Universe (DCEU) is an eclectic collection of films based on fabled DC superheroes, anti-heroes, and supervillains. Birthed in 2013, the DCEU comprises ten feature films. Despite being created five years after the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), Warner Brothers and the DCEU beat Marvel Studios to the punch on a couple of occasions. Wonder Woman was the first female-led solo superhero movie by either studio, for example.
Additionally, the superhero-fighting-superhero trend started with Batman Vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice, which came out two months before Captain America: Civil War. The two films share themes and similar financial success, though Captain America: Civil War is a much more critically acclaimed film. However, the highest grossing DCEU film might surprise some folks. It does not feature the Dark Knight, the Man of Steel, or the Princess of Themyscira. The film that holds this distinction is 2018’s Aquaman.

After the financial success of the first film, there are hefty expectations for Director James Wan and crew to deliver an impressive on-screen sequel. The film does not release until December of 2022, but what can DCEU fans expect from Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom?
