Will The Lost Kingdom End Aquaman’s Tenure Ahead Of Gunn’s DCU?
With the shot lasting no more than a few seconds , it ’s unclear what incisively is come about to Orm in theAquaman and the Lost Kingdomtrailer , though it does appear to have something to do withthe Black Trident . Given the footage tantalize Black Manta ’s desire to kill Aquaman ’s entire phratry bloodline , and the story itself seems primed to offer Wilson ’s former villain a buyback arc akin to Tom Hiddleston ’s Loki in the Marvel Cinematic Universe , this could hint at a heartbreaking sacrifice at the hands of Abdul - Mateen II ’s character , or the zombified King Atlan .
However , with his still see to bear some animus towards his half comrade , it also seems possible that this moment could hint Orm gets his hands on the cursed Trident and becomes corrupted by the artillery , make him a villain once again . This would be a game twist akin to Sinestro ’s turn inGreen Lantern ’s post - credit as well as Baron Mordo inDoctor Strange , among others .

Director James Wan has indicated he ’s changeable if this young guidance will leave the threshold undefended for another subsequence , while Gunn himself has ostensibly confirmed none of the heroes cast by Zack Snyder will retain their function in the future , potentially makingAquaman and the Lost KingdomMomoa ’s last outing as the eponymous DC hero . Reports have swirled of his at least being in talks forthe new DC Universeto play Lobo , potentially in Gunn ’s ownSuperman : Legacyreboot or a standalone movie , though concrete plan remain vague . While it would n’t be the first DC movie to have a sequel setup lead to nothing after 2023’sThe Flash , Orm becoming corrupted by the Black Trident could very well be an interesting plot turn leave unexplored .
