Aquaman Sequel Surpasses Other DC Films at Box Office

Despite a challenging year for superhero films, Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom outperforms its DC counterparts, earning $334.8 million worldwide.

Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom has surpassed The Flash and Black Adam at the box office, earning $334.8 million worldwide, making it the highest-grossing DC movie released in 2023.
The sequel to the billion-dollar Jason Momoa film is set to gross over $400 million despite facing several issues including a controversial actress, negative test screening feedback, and a failed cinematic universe.
Despite not performing as well as its predecessor, which netted $1.15 billion worldwide, Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom has managed to outperform other superhero films released in 2023, a year that was not favorable for superhero films.
Rumors suggest that Jason Momoa may leave the role of Aquaman and take on the role of Lobo in the DC Universe, indicating a potential change in the franchise.
Despite poor critic reviews, audience reviews for Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom are positive, with an 81% audience rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
