Wow, so they're not even planning on unveiling a trailer alongside BLUE BEETLE (who's another not to mention lesser DC character)? Pretty pathetic. Sad how little faith Warner/DC has in this one.

It's hard to follow what's going on in the head of DC / Warner Discovery heads these days, but couldn't it mean that they're confident enough they don't need to promote it that much, as the sequel to a $1 billion movie?

Well I think they are shocked about Flash (2023) box office bomb performance and are stoned in my opinion. I think many people are already tired of all this reboots sequels. Indiana Jones 5 had the same box office situation. Fast X at least recovered it;s money and also didn't shine that much as studio was expected. I watched all of them - really good movies, but people today don't go in theatres that much, post pandemic situation or something does not work ...

News toy figures, will King Nereus get his this time?

News toy figures, will King Nereus get his this time?

Doubtful. Though considering all of Amber Heard's legal troubles and supposed toxic behavior, I'm surprised she's even getting one. Here in the States, we have closeout stores like Big Lots, TJ Maxx, etc., and that is where most AQUAMAN merchandise ended up in 2019. I'm betting that the same will happen with these... Maybe even quicker.

Apparently it will be shown as a concert (as part of a DC film concert series including Tim Burton's BATMAN)

Teaser for the trailer

So we have no less than 4 DL-titles coming out during this last quarter of the year...

I also realize one cast member who doesn't seem to return in A2 is Willem Dafoe.

It just looks so generic... honestly Dolph's weird haircut for Ex4 has more character.
