Warner Bros has released an extended trailer for Aquaman. The Jason Momoa starrer looks impressive and visually fantastic. The action scenes are fantastic. The CGI, which did not impress many the in the first trailer, seems sharp and impressive too. It seems that, James Wan and his team have made some constructive changes post all the criticism.

The trailer begins with Momoa’s voiceover and with the same lighthouse. Jason Momoa is starring in the titular role of Aquaman/Arthur Curry in Aquman, is seen entering the submarine that we saw the last time. He had caught and beaten up smugglers in it. Mera (Amber Heard) and Arthur are seen in a desert and looks like they are in an Indiana Jones-style quest. The are seen entering a massive hall that was once Atlantis before it got submerged in the ocean. They are looking to find the Trident of Poseidon.

The war against the surface world that Patrick Wilson’s King Orm (Arthur’s half-brother) is desiring is also teased, complete along with great white sharks and seahorses. The visuals look much improved and the highlight of the trailer is Black Manta. The character is played by Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, the villain seems to work with Orm and is a fearsome, true-to-lore supervillain who is set to be a pain for Arthur and Mera. Arthur’s reaction after seeing him for the first time is like us, “Who the hell are you?”

We get to see an extended sequence that involves Mera and Arthur being chased by Black Manta. The background music is impressive. A flashback has Nicole Kidman’s Queen Atlanna (Arthur’s mother) making quick work of a few attackers. Meanwhile, the war beckons. “I am no leader,” Arthur protests to Mera, who replies that Atlantis needs not a king, but a hero.

Aquaman releases on December 21.
