Summary

  • The recent trailer for Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom supports theories about the deaths of Aquaman's father and son at the hands of Black Manta, hinting at a dark ending for the franchise.
  • The inclusion of these tragic losses in the second film becomes even grimmer since Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom marks the end of the DCEU.
  • It is possible that Warner Bros. may have changed the plot points to provide a solid ending for both the film and the franchise, despite the hints in the recent trailer.
