Black Adam: First Footage of Dwayne Johnson’s DC Debut Revealed – DC FanDome 2021

We've finally gotten a first look at Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson's debut in the DC universe through a first look at Black Adam.

Shown off at DC FanDome 2021, the footage begins with a massive explosion and an ominous figure in a black cloak. A soldier is quickly reduced to ash, and as the rest open fire, the figure catches a bullet in mid-air. The figure begins to rise, and in that moment we get a glimpse of the iconic Black Adam symbol.

Black Adam was seemingly originally set to be a part of DC's Shazam! before that movie was split in two. After we learned that The Rock's take on the anti-hero wouldn't be a part of the Shazam movie, we've been waiting a long time to see a first look.

We got an illustrated teaser at last year's FanDome, and have learned that the movie will introduce the Justice Society of America, casting Noah Centineo as Atom Smasher, Aldis Hodge as Hawkman, and Pierce Brosnan as Doctor Fate. The movie will finally arrive on July 29, 2022.
