First look at HBO Max’s James Wan-produced Aquaman: King of Atlantis

February 17, 2021 by Amie Cranswick

Aquaman 2 may be a while away yet, but James Wan is heading back underwater to produce the three-part animated miniseries Aquaman: King of Atlantis, for HBO Max, and the streaming has released a first-look image today during the Television Critics Association press tour which features our titular hero alongside Mera.

The series begins with Aquaman’s first day on the job as king of Atlantis and he’s got a LOT of catching up to do. Luckily, he has his two royal advisors to back him up – Vulko, the scholar, and Mera, the water controlling warrior-princess. Between dealing with unscrupulous surface dwellers, elder evils from beyond time and his own half-brother who wants to overthrow him, Aquaman is going to have to rise to the challenge and prove to his subjects, and to himself, that he’s the right man for the trident!

“This DC property is a fan-favorite rich with well-known characters and dynamic storylines,” said Sarah Aubrey, head of original content for HBO Max, upon the series’ initial announcment. “On the heels of Warner Bros. Pictures’ box office smash hit, we are certain Aquaman: King of Atlantis will be an exciting addition to our already robust slate of kids and family programming.”
