DC’s latest big-screen adventure Aquaman has finally surpassed $1 billion at the worldwide box office according to Forbes.
This Winter has been a very exciting time for DC fans. Titans concluded its first season on the DC Universe streaming service, the long-awaited Young Justice: Outsiders has finally begun airing, and of course, Aquaman swept away the competition at the box office when it premiered in December.
Aquaman began its impressive box office run in early December when it debuted in China. Over the following weeks, the film released in more and more territories before finally hitting the U.S., which only helped push that worldwide gross even farther. In fact, it’s the first film in the DC Extended Universe to surpass $1 billion worldwide. The only other DC films at all to achieve such an accomplishment are The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises.
The next adventure in the DCEU is hitting theaters in just a few months. The light-hearted superhero origin film Shazam! arrives at the beginning of April before the darker one-off villain origin Joker premieres in October.
