Warner Bros. has officially set the Aquaman release date for October 5, 2018
There’s good news and bad news today for Aquaman fans. The good news is that Warner Bros. Pictures has officially set an Aquaman release date. The bad news is that Aquaman release date falls a bit later than initially anticipated. Look for the James Wan film to hit regular, 3D and IMAX theaters October 5, 2018. That’s just three months after the July 27, 2018 date that WB had earmarked for a release that was widely assumed to be Aquaman. This October 5 date, too, was previously earmarked for an unspecified DC Comics film. Does that mean that a different DC film will take the July 27 date? Time will tell, so check back for details as they become available.
