The world premiere trailer for Black Adam will drop on 8 June 2022. This news comes from film lead Dwayne Johnson on Instagram, posted in a caption confirming the trailer’s release date, along with set photos. Black Adam will bring the DC Comics antihero into the live-action universe in a move that, in Johnson’s words, will ‘change the hierarchy of power in the DC multiverse.’ Previously slated for July 2022, the film and other titles on the DC Films slate were pushed back to allow for reshoots.
In the post, Dwayne Johnson shared a message about his experience with the character, describing how he researched the character’s mythology to better understand the character. He also revealed that he had shot the scene of his character taking the throne, which he had previously planned to shoot as a moment to represent his character’s growth and development throughout the shooting process.
The Throne of Black Adam. For the millions of you who know the Black Adam mythology – you understand the meaning and power of this throne. I promised myself that I wouldn’t sit on it until we shot the actual scene where Black Adam has earned his right to take his sacred place on high. His throne is a big deal. So I always just sat my big ass at the steps and did my homework. We finally filmed “the iconic moment” and what a moment it was. World Premiere of the BLACK ADAM trailer drops JUNE 8TH.
Black Adam will be the next release in the DC Extended Universe and is one of the most highly anticipated films of the franchise. Are you excited to see the Black Adam trailer?
