With less than 100 days until Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom hits theaters, DC Studios released the first teaser trailer for the hotly-anticipated DC Extended Universe movie.
The 30-second teaser features a ton of new footage from the long-awaited sequel to 2018’s Aquaman. Alongside multiple shots of Jason Momoa‘s Aquaman, fans can catch a quick glimpse of Patrick Wilson‘s Orm, as well as Black Manta (Yahya Abdul-Mateen II) menacingly stating that he is going to “kill Aquaman and destroy everything he holds dear.”
Although the teaser was brief, Warner Bros. and DC have already confirmed that the official trailer for Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom will be released on Thursday, September 14.
