Jason Momoa may have revealed that Ben Affleck’s Batman is set to return to the DCEU in Aquaman 2, and the fans can’t keep calm. The Lost Kingdom is the sequel to the 2018 movie that also starred Amber Heard as Mera. A lot of controversies around her part in it have been going around due to the Johnny Depp case.
Fans have created petitions after petitions demanding the removal of Heard from the sequel. This comes after allegations of making false claims of facing abuse from JD. Many also believe that it was her who abused him as a clip where the actress is allegedly heard hitting him went viral.
Amber Heard’s role in Aquaman 2 remains, though she gets very little timeline. Amidst all of this, Jason Momoa has delivered some good news as he seemingly confirmed Ben Affleck’s reprisal of Batman for the DCEU movie set to release in 2023.
