We’re
excited
to
see
Yahya
Abdul-Mateen
II
go
full
supervillain
as
a
bigger,
badder
Black
Manta
obsessed
with
getting
his
revenge
against
the
King
of
Atlantis
in
super-sized
sequel
Aquaman
And
The
Lost
Kingdom.
Having
failed
to
defeat
Aquaman
(Jason
Momoa)
the
first
time,
the
powered-up
menace
“will
stop
at
nothing
to
take
Aquaman
down
once
and
for
all,”
per
the
official
synopsis.

“This
time,
he’s
more
formidable
than
ever
before,
wielding
the
power
of
the
mythic
Black
Trident
which
unleashes
an
ancient
and
malevolent
force.

To

Aquaman
will
turn
to
his
imprisoned
brother
Orm–the
former
King
of
Atlantis–to
forge
an
unlikely
alliance.

Together,
they
must
set
aside
their
differences
in
order
to
protect
their
kingdom
and
save
Aquaman’s
family,
and
the
world,
from
irreversible
destruction.”
“What
I
like
between
this
one
and
the
first
one
is,
you
really
do
see
the
growth
of
Arthur,”
said
Wan
in
an
interview
with
EW.
“He
starts
off
as
this
kind
of
wanderer,
and
in
the
second
one
he
finally
has
more
of
a
direction
of
what
he
wants
to
do
with
his
life.”

Directed
by
James
Wan,
the
big,
brawny
blockbuster
also
stars
Nicole
Kidman,
Patrick
Wilson,
and
Amber
Heard
with
Mateen
II
hamming
it
up
as
Aquaman’s
arch
nemesis
hell-bent
on
destroying
“everything
he
holds
dear.”
Check
out
his
featurette
below:
“Black
Manta
is
not
just
driven
by
hate.
He’s
driven
by
love–his
father
was
killed
by
Aquaman
who
had
an
opportunity
to
show
mercy
but
didn’t.
This
need
for
vengeance
haunts
him
night
and
day…
I’m
excited
about
giving
the
audience
something
cool
to
see
and
I’m
rooting
for
the
villain,’
he
added
with
a
sly
smile.
