Rather than the “dark” adult animated DC tales fans have come to expect, this new art style exudes a younger, lighter tone. Instead of an ongoing series, King of Atlantis will be a three-part animated mini-series, based on the storyline of the 2018 live-action film starring Jason Momoa.
James Wan (Aquaman) is set to executive produce under his Atomic Monster banner alongside Victor Courtright (Thundercats Roar) and Mary Halpern-Graser (Teen Titans Go! vs. Teen Titans), who will also showrun. It is unclear whether talent from the live-action film will also voice their animated counterparts. In the meantime, we do know Aquaman 2 is set to premiere in 2022.
