AceShowbiz - "Aquaman" is swimming towards a new global box office mark, which will make director James Wan's blockbuster the biggest Warner Bros. superhero movie ever.
Wan's film is just millions behind "The Dark Knight Rises", which is the studio's top-grossing film featuring a DC Comics superhero, and expected to pass that figure over the weekend, January 25-27.
"Aquaman" has already sailed past $1 billion worldwide, making Wan the only filmmaker who has delivered a billion-dollar blockbuster for two different studios - his "Furious 7" raced past $1.5 billion for Universal in 2016.
Wan is already on board for an "Aquaman" sequel, once he sees a script he likes.
