Black Adam and Superman are set to share the big screen, as Dwayne Johnson has revealed he plans to make a movie starring the two DC Comics characters.
Recent reports claimed that Henry Cavill shot a new scene as Superman for Dwayne Johnson’s first cinematic outing as Black Adam. While Warner Bros. has yet to comment on the matter, Johnson has all but confirmed the reports with some of his recent social media posts.
By doing the rounds of the press for black adam, Dwayne Johnson was asked if he was working on getting a Black Adam and Superman movie off the ground. Johnson confirmed his plans to reunite the two characters during a chat with CinemaBlend.
“Absolutely,” Dwayne Johnson told CinemaBlend. “That’s what this man is all about. Thank you for asking this question. And I’ve been saying for some time that there’s a new era in the DC Universe that’s about to begin. And what I meant by that was introducing a whole new character. This is not a sequel, not an existing IP address. It was… you know, Black Adam! Two years ago, the world had no idea who he was.
“We did, but not, you know, the rest of the mass there. Introducing the JSA, introducing this new era of the DC Universe. But also what I really meant by ‘It’s a new era in the DC Universe’ is listening to the fans,” Johnson continued. “And doing our best to give the fans what they want. .”
“And maybe at some point – and I’ve been through this in pro wrestling – you can’t always give them what you want. But you will always know that we are listening to you. And in that case, with what you and I are talking about, I’ve been listening and wanting to speak to fans for years. Because I was waiting for someone to step in and address the fans and say, “Hey, we hear you.”
“So finally, after many months turned into many years, we came to what we ended up with,” the actor teased. “And all the focus and intent is now in this new era, this new era. Now let’s build.
Henry Cavill’s Superman was last seen in Zack Snyder’s cut Judge Leauge on HBO Max. If reports about his black adam cameo are to be believed, Cavill is back in the cape and tights for the first time since 2017, as he hasn’t shot any material as the Man of Steel since Joss Whedon Justice League reshoots.
