No previous DCEU film had passed either The Dark Knight or The Dark Knight Rises at the worldwide box office and soon Aquaman will have bested both of them. Aquamans realization is not on your own fabulous for a DC movie or for a DCEU film, but in the superhero genre overall.
Once Aquaman passes The Dark Knight Rises, it will be the third-biggest solo superhero film of all epoch according to Forbes. Ahead of it are Iron Man 3 subsequently $1.215 billion and Best describe nominee Black Panthers $1.347 billion.

Its no bewilderment Warner Bros. is not going to focus as much on having a shared movie universe anymore, I suppose a few disappointing team-up films and a solo film in the three-comma club will pull off that. It will be interesting to look if Aprils Shazam! can continue to ride this wave.
