Release of Jason Momoa's 'Aquaman 2' moved up

Los Angeles [US], April 6 : Jason Momoa-starrer 'Aquaman 2' will arrive a little earlier in theatres than expected.

As per Deadline, Warner Bros. has moved the release date for the highly-anticipated sequel 'Aquaman and The Lost Kingdom' moving it 5 days forward to Wednesday, December 20 from the previously set Christmas Day.

The DC film will open against Sony's Ghostbusters sequel on Wednesday and will face off against Illumination/Universal's Migration on Friday.

The sequel will see Jason Momoa return in the titular role as Aquaman while Amber Heard also returns to reprise her role from the original.
