With Black Adam pushed from July to October, we're still waiting for Warner Bros. to drop the first trailer. However, with the movie now being released just a couple of months before Shazam! Fury of the Gods, we're anticipating some sort of crossover between the two DC Comics projects, and ongoing reshoots for Black Adam's DCEU debut could add more connective tissue to the movie.
Either way, additional photography continues on Jaume Collet-Serra's DC Comics adaptation, and star Dwayne Johnson has shared another behind the scenes shot of his formidable anti-hero.
Describing it as an "intense week of shooting," the pro wrestler turned Hollywood A-Lister adds, "We are redefining the superhero paradigm. The antihero. The people no longer need a hero. They need a protector. Rage against the dying of the light. The hierarchy in the DC Universe will change."
Johnson certainly knows how to hype a project, and we can't help but be intrigued by what this character will bring to the DCEU. The actor's fans spent years hoping he would take on a superhero role, and Warner Bros. made a lot of fan casts a reality by picking him for Black Adam. Clearly, he wants to do this character justice, and we're definitely keen to see him in action as the iconic anti-hero.
If we had to hazard a guess, a Black Adam trailer will drop in time for DC League of Super-Pets.
Black Adam stars Dwayne Johnson, Noah Centineo, Aldis Hodge, Sarah Shahi, Quintessa Swindell, Pierce Brosnan, and Marwan Kenzari, and will electrify audiences in theaters on July 29.
