‘Aquaman’ Tops ‘Deadpool 2’, ‘Avengers: Infinity War’ For New Pre-Sales Record

DC’s upcoming Aquaman film has set a new pre-sales record for Atom Tickets, topping Deadpool 2, Avengers: Infinity War, and Black Panther.

Per Variety, Aquaman has set a new record for pre-sales on Atom Tickets.  The new record is in large part due to Atom Ticket’s exclusive offer to Amazon Prime members, allowing them to see the film early on December 15. Aquaman is already off to a great start in its box office run, earning $94 million worldwide so far.  The film opens domestically next week and is expected to open upwards to $65 million in its opening weekend. Atom Tickets co-founder and chairman Matthew Bakal celebrated the new pre-sale record in a statement:

“Clearly, Aquaman has captured the attention of movie fans with its larger-than-life adventure that must be seen on the big screen.”

From Warner Bros. Pictures and director James Wan comes an acition-packed adventure that spans the vast, visually breathtaking underwater world of the seven seas, “Aquaman,” starring Jason Momoa in the title role. The film reveals the origin story of half-human, half-Atlantean Arthur Curry and takes him on the journey of his lifetime—one that will not only force him to face who he really is, but to discover if he is worthy of who he was born to be… a king.

Directed by James Wan, Aquaman stars Jason Momoa as Arthur Curry, Amber Heard as Mera, Willem Dafoe as Vulko, Patrick Wilson as Orm / Ocean Master, Dolph Lundgren as Nereus, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II as Black Manta, Nicole Kidman as Atlanna, Ludi Lin as Captain Murk, and Temuera Morrison as Tom Curry.

Aquaman will be released in theaters on December 21, 2018.
