## Plot

In Mercy Reef, a depressed Arthur Curry is consoled by his friend John the Lobster about his love life. He is attacked by a group of thugs, but easily beats them thanks to his superhuman strength. Dr. Shin observes the man, realizing that he's part Atlantean. This excites him as he thinks it's finally proof towards finding the legendary Cthulu, who the doctor intends to see rise again.

Wonder Woman and Steve Trevor are interrupted by a group of protestors who think Diana doesn't belong. She manages to win the mob over. At the Hall of Justice, Dr. Roquette helps Cyborg with upgrading his technology. Steve informs him of a military submarine being lost in the Marianas Trench. In Atlantis, Orm and Black Manta try to persuade Queen Atlanna to let them engage the surface world, but she denies them. It's revealed that the Queen is trying to get rid of her disappointing son Orm, sending her assistant Mera off to look for her other son on the surface world, who's revealed to be Arthur. In the underwater world, power is marked by singing ability, leading Atlanna to hope her son has the voice for the job.

Black Manta thanks Dr. Shin for finding Arthur, then sends his men to kill both of them. The doctor tracks down Curry and tries to convince him to lead him to Cthulu, but Manta's men kill him. Mera arrives and saves Arthur, killing all the attackers. While that's happening, Manta attacks the Atlantis capital to stir up chaos.

The Justice League gathers at the Hall. Cyborg reveals what happened at the submarine, which shows evidence of the water-breathing soldiers. Wonder Woman reveals that they're from the lost city of Atlantis. Batman and Superman go to investigate Dr. Shin's lab, hoping that it'll lead them to some answers.

Arthur awakens to discover Mera, who he recognizes from her singing. She reveals that he's the future King of the nation, and is impressed to learn that he knows John the Lobster. Arthur is angered to learn that his mother is only asking for him now, but Mera tells him that the rules of their people forbid her from staying and raising Arthur. Meanwhile, Atlanna seeks justice for the attack on the capital. Orm grows restless.

At Dr. Shin's lab, Batman and Superman discover evidence of the conflicts in Atlantis and go searching for Arthur Curry. The future King and Mera are attacked by Trench monsters and saved by the Justice League. They head to Atlantis, fearing for Queen Atlanna. They arrive too late, Orm having already killed her in anger for her disownment of him. The Ocean Master captures the heroes and leaves them for Cthulu while he marches on the surface world.

Arthur escapes and frees his new friends. They manage to defeat Cthulu, sending him back to his dimension. Arthur battles Black Manta, who is extremely angry to see all his schemes come crashing down. The would-be King feeds him to his shark friend Jaws. Orm manages to take down each member of the Justice League one-by-one. Batman and Cyborg manage to project a recording of Orm admitting to killing the queen to the Atlantean army, causing them to lose faith in their leader. Finally, Arthur takes down his half-brother. He wins over the people of Atlantis with his impressive singing ability, becoming the King.

King Arthur chooses Mera to be his Queen. The heroes determine that Arthur is way too cool for them and will make the League look bad, thus conspiring to make him out to be a joke on the surface world. Arthur and Mera join the League as part-timers, known as Aquaman and Aquawoman.

In a mid-credits scene, Lex Luthor meets with Orm at Belle Reve Penitentiary and offers him a proposition to join the Light. In a post-credits scene, the Justice League parties at the Hall of Justice while Black Manta escapes Jaws' stomach.
