Dwayne Johnson who first staked his claim on Black Adam back in 2014 have now returned after all these years to again hit the top by sharing details about the new project. Johnson, who made an appearance in the DC FanDome event on Saturday, shared a few details about the project, specifically in regards to what other DC superheroes will be seen in the movie.
According to the MSN entertainment, last month, Noah Centineo, the ‘To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before’ fame, signed on to play superhero Atom Smasher. He’ll be one of the new characters in the Justice Society of America, a superhero team that also counts the Flash and the Green Lantern in its ranks. Other JSA members in Johnson’s Black Adam are Hawkman, Doctor Fate, and Cyclone, all of whom have been featured in an animated promo.
“I have a knack for destroying bullies, but there are some who think I need help,” says Johnson in the clip. “Hawkman, Doctor Fate, and their new recruits: Cyclone and Atom Smasher. They call themselves the Justice Society, an organization that believes in fighting for truth and justice. Well I’m going to teach them that the only beliefs I fight for are mine. Welcome to truth, justice, and the Black Adam way.”
