the song appears in Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom
X Ambassadors has released “Deep End,” a song that was written for and is featured in Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom film, opening in theatres on December 22nd.
Thematically, the movie centers around the relationship between two brothers—an idea close to the band’s heart with the relationship between lead vocalist Sam Nelson Harris and his brother, keyboardist Casey Harris, playing a pivotal role in their music.
“This song embodies the essence of brotherhood and resilience. When we were initially approached to compose this song, we were inspired by the movie’s central themes of camaraderie and unwavering determination,” details Sam. “As brothers and longtime bandmates, my brother, Casey, and I have experienced a multitude of ups and downs together. This song, in many ways, is a tribute to the unbreakable bond we share. Having our song featured in a superhero movie is a profound moment for me, as I’ve always held a deep appreciation for comic books and heroic narratives. This song is unquestionably a bucket-list moment for me and our band.”
“When looking for an end title song, the challenge is to find a piece that sums up the spirit and soul of the whole movie,” director James Wan adds. “We were very lucky to have X Ambassadors give us this powerful and melodically lyrical anthem that embodied the theme of brotherhood so perfectly,”
After failing to defeat Aquaman the first time, Black Manta wields the power of the mythic Black Trident to unleash an ancient and malevolent force. Hoping to end his reign of terror, Aquaman forges an unlikely alliance with his brother, Orm, the former king of Atlantis. Setting aside their differences, they join forces to protect their kingdom and save the world from irreversible destruction.
The film stars Jason Momoa, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Amber Heard, Patrick Wilson, Dolph Lundgren, and Temuera Morrison. It’s distributed by Warner Brothers Pictures.
