Wan recently spoke toEntertainment Weeklyabout many of the rumors concerning the DC blockbuster sequel.
The tentpole has been troubled by various reports about a disastrous post-production that allegedly included three rounds of reshoots.
The film was also at the center of the power transfer to Gunn and Safran.
So, we just had to be prepared," Wan said.
That’s the bottom line."
There was also confusion surrounding whether Batman actorsBen AffleckorMichael Keatonwere brought in for these reshoots.
Since Flash came out first, does that affect Lost Kingdom?
Wan gave an ambiguous reply.
“Thats a ‘no comment’, right now,” he said.
“You’re going to have to wait for the movie to come out.”
Wan reassured that he was still in the driver’s seat.
“I’ve known James since way back, right?
We’re horror guys, and so I’m definitely open to ideas.
But, at the end of the day, this is my movie.”
“We have big actors in this movie, and everyones schedule is really hard,” he explained.
“So, we had to break up our shooting schedule into sections.
People are like, ‘Oh, they’re doing a whole bunch of different shoots!’
The director was also asked about actress Amber Heard, who has played Mera since 2017’s Justice League.
Given DC’s box office track record as of late, that could be a small problem, however.
Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom will be released in theaters on December 20.
