What could have been a solid way to end things with a bang, unfortunately ended things with a whimper.

In a splashy victory at the North American box office, "Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom" emerged as the top-grossing film over the Christmas weekend. The DC and Warner Bros. superhero sequel, headlined by Jason Momoa, reeled in an estimated USD 28.1 million during its first three days in 3,706 locations. Projections for Monday put the film at a robust USD 40 million in domestic ticket sales.

Amber Heard was only able to keep her role in the upcoming sequel of “Aquaman” because her co-star in the film Jason Momoa was "adamant" that she remains in the film.
