A new report found by ComicBookMovie may have revealed Aquaman’s runtime. The site picked up on an eagle-eyed fan on twitter posting regional release info for the movie. As you can see in the tweet below the image appears to detail all the technical specifications for the movies release. Part of that includes a runtime listed as 143mins (2hrs 23).
