Black Adam Trailer: The first take a look at Dwayne Johnson’s Black Adam has formally arrived, and it is about to ‘change the hierarchy of power in the DC universe’.
Sharing the trailer on Instagram, Dwayne wrote, “As promised, our world premiere @blackadammovie trailer. This passion project has become my DNA and the hierarchy of power in the DC Universe will change. The world needed a hero. It got Black Adam. Rage.”
Directed by Jaume Collet-Serra, Black Adam is scheduled to launch on October 21. The superhero movie will embody lesser-known heroes – members of the Justice Society of America – such as Hawkman (Aldis Hodge), Atom Smasher (Noah Centineo), Cyclone (Quintessa Swindell), and Doctor Fate (Pierce Brosnan).
“There are a couple of things we wanted to convey [with that trailer],” producer Hiram Garcia stated at a latest press occasion. “One, that the movie’s fun. The movie’s big. Two, I think that when you see Black Adam, you realize that we’re honouring the comic book version of Black Adam. He doesn’t pull his punches. He can be judge, jury, and executioner. And his approach to how he does things is very much opposite of what typical heroes would do.”
It’s been a few years since Dwayne Johnson started speaking about enjoying the DC Comics character, Black Adam. In 2019, the actor shared his first look in and as Black Adam, together with its launch date, which was later postponed. Black Adam is a fictional superhero character showing in American comedian books printed by DC Comics. Black Adam has been in the pipeline for a very long time. Dwayne was solid as the DC villain in 2007, however with 2017’s Shazam being an enormous hit, manufacturing reportedly sped up on The Rock’s spin-off.
