Dwayne Johnson has revealed the very first scene that he shot for Black AdamBased on the powerful supervillain in the DC Comics, Black Adam serves as Johnson's entry to the DCEU. The upcoming film introduces the ancient Egyptian antihero who is out for redemption and revenge after being imprisoned for 5,000 years. It also introduces a new set of DC heroes who are part of the Justice Society of America. These include Pierce Brosnan as Doctor Fate, Noah Centineo as Atom Smasher, Aldis Hodge as Hawkman, Quintessa Swindell as Cyclone, and Sarah Shahi as Isis. The film is set to hit theaters on July 29, 2022.

Johnson has been attached to the role since the development of the first Shazam movie, but it was decided that the character deserved a solo outing. Since filming began in April this year, the wrestler-turned-actor has constantly drummed up excitement for the film and documented much of his training for the epic role. This weekend, anticipation heightened as Black Adam's first teaser trailer was unveiled at the DC FanDome 2021. The short clip showed Johnson as the titular antihero who, despite wearing a hooded cloak, looked totally menacing.
