Black Adam: The Dark Ages

The longstanding rumor that Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson will play Black Adam in the upcoming Shazam! movie has finally been confirmed. It appears that it was really up to Dwayne, if he wanted to play Shazam or Black Adam, so he talked to fans and did a little research and chose Black Adam. The overwhelming majority of fans’ feedback apparently leaned this way, heavily influencing Johnson’s choice.

It was also mentioned that Corpse Bride screenwriter, John August, submitted a revision of the film’s script on November 2nd, ahead of the current Screenwriters’ Guild strike. Filming is said to begin in late 2008.
