In addition, Wan said the film is “more mature” than the first film, “yet still retains its fun.”
Wan also discussed the return of Black Manta, played by Yahya Abdul-Mateen II. “Black Manta is still seeking his vengeance to try to kill Aquaman. That’s going to be something that’s exciting for the audience,” said Wan. “It’s a globetrotting story. We visit so many different worlds. This movie isn’t afraid to embrace its fantasy.”
During the presentation, fans were also treated to some behind-the-scenes footage and concept art, and they took to Twitter to share their reactions.
