Johnson posted the brand-newBlack Adamclip to give audiences a subtle taste of the main course that has yet to surface. The chaotic footage erupts with the emergence of the titular character, who instantly showcases why he is the most powerful force on the planet. “Your magic is weak,” utters Black Adam in response to the barrage of bullets bouncing off his god-like figure as he violently disposes of his attackers before escaping his prison and entering the present-day world.
Black Adamwill look to generate significant revenue for Warner Bros. Discovery, whose morbid financial situation has been the topic of conversation throughout the past few months. The cancelation ofBatgirlignited the spark, which further spread when it surfaced thatAquaman and the Lost KingdomandShazam! Fury of the Godswould fail to see a theatrical release this year. Essentially, the studio could not afford to release the projects, having only the financial capability to release three films to end the year,which includesDon’t Worry DarlingandBlack Adam. Despite heinous reviews,Don’t Worry Darlingcleaned up nicely at the box office, butBlack Adamwill undoubtedly look to make an even bigger impact worldwide.
Alongside Johnson, the upcoming Warner Bros. film will star Pierce Brosnan, Aldis Hodge, Quintessa Swindell, Noah Centineo, and Viola Davis. The film will center around the titular anti-hero and the unique form of justice he fully unleashes in the present day after 5,000 years of imprisonment. The Justice Society of America challenges the emblematic character’s unmatched god-like power, which includes Hawkman, Doctor Fate, Cyclone, and Atom Smasher.Black Adamlooks to release weeks ahead of Marvel Studios’Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, and it will be interesting to see how the two projects stack up against one another in a race to dethroneTop Gun: Maverickas the year’s highest-grossing film.
