Aquaman 2 Star Dolph Lundgren Is Disappointed Fans Didn't Get to See Original Cut
Lundgren has previously said that he had a bigger role in the early cut, but he doesn't take it personally that his role was trimmed down, blaming corporate machinations. He said that his reduced role was directly tied to the reduced role for Mera (Amber Heard), since Lundgren was playing Mera's father.
"I just realized that it was some kind of corporate decision that they try to limit Amber Heard and then I'm playing with her dad and went along with it," Lundgren explained. "I was just disappointed for the moviegoers, because I thought the original script was great and the original cut -- I saw a little bit of it, it was really good, so I didn't see any reason to start reshooting and reshaping the story, which obviously led to disappointment in the moviegoers and not just me."

You'd think it would be a no-brainer but Gunn has made some weird choices with Amanda Waller by humiliating her in The Suicide Squad and Peacemaker, before announcing that she will be having her own show in his DC universe. I hope Circe isn't in for a similar treatment.

Getting the obligatory whining about cheap horror movies you can ignore out of the way, I don't see why this is bad for anyone unless you're a Warner Bros investor. All of the original creators of these characters are long dead, so it's not like it's harming people who you could actually should benefit financially from still not being PD.
which was a stupid thing to do, Mera is too important in Aquaman story to be reduced as they did. The movie feels like it is missing something from the beginning. It takes a better shape in the 3rd arc just because Mera is more present and saves the day more than once.
Nobody believes that they reduced Heard's time because of bad chemistry with Momoa, any studio would be happy to have bad chemistry and a billion box office.
love is the real "success."
