And since Disney isn’t releasing a new Star Wars movie for the first time in years, there’s more room for releases to clean up with moviegoers.
Aquaman’s projected success is for a variety of reasons, partly being its international appeal– especially with the game-changing Chinese box office.
Releasing the blockbuster this December is a great choice, considering how movies during the Holiday Season can accrue a ton of money.
Aquaman is competing with Mary Poppins Returns, but those two projects are vastly different, and James Wan’s blockbuster will fill the void of an action movie for cinephiles.
