The superhero got his own film in October, with Dwayne Johnson starring as the titular character. It was a role that The Rock had been attached to for 15 years. Although a spin-off of Shazam!, it was hoped that the movie would be the beginning of a new franchise within the DC Universe. 

However, the latest shake-up at DC Studios means a Black Adam sequel has been put on by ice.

James Gunn and Peter Safran were named as joint heads of Warner Brothers at the beginning of November. The decision came about after they had advised David Zaslav, the CEO of the newly-created Warner Bros. Discovery, during his search for a new head of DC Films.

With hopes high for a Black Adam sequel, Johnson released an update that won’t please fans.

“James Gunn and I connected, and Black Adam will not be in their first chapter of storytelling,” the Hobbs & Shaw actor said. “However, DC and Seven Bucks have agreed to continue exploring the most valuable ways Black Adam can be utilized in future DC multiverse chapters.”

The news about Black Adam follows that of Wonder Woman not getting a third film, and Henry Cavill being dropped as Superman after having met with Safran and Gunn in early December.

This superhero film chronicles the journey of Black Adam who was imprisoned shortly after being bestowed with the almighty powers of the Egyptian gods. Nearly 5,000 years later, he’s finally freed from his tomb, ready to unleash his unique form of justice on the modern world.

Johnson was first linked to this project in 2017, but it took a while to actually make it happen. Black Adam was hit with several major delays in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic, and Johnson is happy to finally share it with the world.

“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,” the actor wrote on Twitter.

In addition to Johnson, Black Adam will also star Noah Centineo, Aldis Hodge, Sarah Shahi, Quintessa Swindell, and Pierce Brosnan. It will be released on October 21, 2022, and start streaming on HBO Max 45 days later.

Johnson plays the DC Comics anti-hero and sworn nemesis of Shazam! In the clip, Johnson’s superhero appears to a group of cave dwellers with machine guns who fire on him, but he’s bulletproof.

In addition to Johnson’s character Black Adam, the film features other members of the Justice Society including Aldis Hodge as Hawkman, Noah Centineo as Atom Smasher, Quintessa Swindell as Cyclone, and Pierce Brosnan as Doctor Fate.

“This film, this universe has been a gigantic passion project of mine for a very long time,” said Johnson before introducing the first look at the film. “The film has without question some of the biggest action sequences I have ever been a part of.”

Johnson started circling the role around 2007 and signed on by 2014 to play Black Adam in a Shazam! movie, but the studio decided to do spin off the character into his own franchise with Zachary Levi starring in Shazam!.

Black Adams will be released on July 29, 2022. Check out the first look below.
