We finally have a glimpse of Dwayne Johnson aka The Rock in Black Adam.
The new trailer for DC FanDome released ahead of the October 16 event offers several new glimpses at every new DC project in the pipeline. From Robert Pattinson's The Batman to Dwayne Johnson in Black Adam, the teaser offers an exciting look at the multitude of movies slated to release in the coming years.
Although the clip features Johnson for a mere second, fans took to social media to express that the actor literally looked like "The Rock" in the video.
Dwayne Johnson Looks Like Himself In Black Adam
Several fans wrote to Twitter, sharing that Dwayne Johnson didn't look any different in his superhero role.
"Bruh thats literally just the rock..." a fan shared.
"You could have said this is The Rock in any movie and I would’ve believed you...." added another.
"The Rock being The Rock in movies is the best," gushed a third.
"Man I Thought he’d use a new hairstyle for this one. Or a new look… Or a new facial expression…" wrote a fourth.
Dwayne Johnson had been training hard to prepare for his role in the superhero flick, in which he stars alongside Noah Centineo's Atom Smasher, Pierce Brosnan's Doctor Fate and Aldis Hodge's Hawkman among other actors.
Although a plot for the film hasn't been confirmed, it is known referred to as the big-screen adaptation of the Justice Society of America. Johnson's character has been a fan-favorite anti-hero and powerful villain in the comic-books, and is arguably more powerful than Superman himself.
He can fly, possesses super strength and durability, and has the power of speed. He can also cast magical lightning strikes and has a vast amount of knowledge, among other powers.
In the character's introduction story, Black Adam is an Egyptian adult known as Teth-Adam, who is chosen as a champion by an ancient wizard by the name of Shazam. By shouting the wizard's name, Teth-Adam discovers he is able to draw power from a collection of deities and eventually becomes a superhuman warrior.
The film is set to release in 2022.
