Set photos from Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom have shown a scene involving Arthur appearing to address the United Nations. Additionally, the movie’s plot is known to involve Arthur teaming up with his half-brother Orm a.k.a. Ocean Master (Patrick Wilson), who had been his enemy in the first Aquaman. With Orm having attempted to lead Atlantis to war with the surface world in Aquaman, Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom might see Arthur re-evaluate his half-brother’s perspective.
Arthur Curry, as a human-Atlantean hybrid, has mostly favored his surface world roots, as seen in Aquaman's appearance in Justice League's Snyder Cut (also known as Zack Snyder's Justice League) and in 2018's Aquaman itself. However, becoming King of Atlantis surely has broadened his outlook. In witnessing the surface world’s pollution of the seven seas he rules over, Arthur might decide to issue an ecological ultimatum to the surface. While a fitting conclusion to an Aquaman movie in the abstract, it would not be an ideal franchise ending for the DCEU overall.
