James Wan says ‘Aquaman’ spinoffs like ‘The Trench’ won’t get in the way of other DC movies

Aquaman earned more than enough money to generate a sequel and more. Last week’s news of a spinoff would not have been such a big surprise were it not for the subject of that film. No one outside of Warner Bros. and Aquaman director James Wan saw The Trench coming.

The news was met with ample curiosity. This being the internet, there was also some very vocal concern over Warner Bros. seemingly prioritizing a movie about Aquaman monsters over other DC films. Wan, who’s producing The Trench, is putting those worries to rest.
