Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom might be the last movie of the current DC universe, but you're probably still expecting a credit scene or two.
After all, both Shazam! Fury of the Gods and The Flash teased potential future storylines in their respective credit scenes, despite the fact that those futures won't come to pass in the new DC Universe.
(Blue Beetle teased its sequel too in its credit scene, but that might actually happen as James Gunn called Blue Beetle a DCU character.)
And even though Aquaman's future is unclear, we can confirm that Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom has one credit scene. It comes mid-credits and there's nothing post-credits, and it's more of a gag than a tease for the future.
While Aquaman's DC future has yet to be confirmed, Jason Momoa hasn't exactly sounded confident that he'll be back for another round as he's aware that Gunn and Peter Safran want to set up their new universe.
"I don't necessarily want it to be the end... [but] I don't think it's really, like, a choice. The truth of it is, I mean, if the audience loves it, then there's a possibility... But right now, I'm like, 'It's not looking too good'," he said earlier this month.

"I love this character and [I would want to] play it for a long time. I kind of see where I would want it to go. And even in the next 10 years or so, like there's a lot of cool things they can do. And I do enjoy the role and the world."
The first movie remains the highest-grossing DC movie ever, so there's a chance that Aquaman 2 could prove just as big of a box office draw – even if early projections aren't looking too great.
But if it does make a big splash at the box office, Momoa could be back as Aquaman. Or maybe we'll see him as Lobo in DC's future instead.
Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom is out now in cinemas.
