It’s unclear just how many appearances Black Adam will make during his time in the DCEU, but he is a significant figure in the DC comic lore. With the rest of the DCEU currently in fluctuation, it’ll be interesting to see how the company handles this character, especially with such a huge star like Johnson in the role.

The film will be directed by Jaume-Collet-Serra, with a screenplay written by Rory Haines and Sohrab Noshiryani. Black Adam is reportedly set to feature the live-action introduction of the Justice Society of America, with Pierce Brosnan as Doctor Fate, Noah Centineo as Atom Smasher, Quintessa Swindell as Cyclone, and Aldis Hodge as Hawkman.
