The Suicide Squad
Dwayne Johnson ’s debut as Black Adam could be come inSuicide Squad 2 . Back in the earliest of stages of Warner Bros. function out a shared universe for their DC characters , the studio apartment hired bona fide corner office draw and Hollywood ’s lucky charm Dwayne ' The Rock ' Johnson to star inShazam!as the lead scoundrel , Black Adam . Since that point , Black Adam ’s hereafter has shifted quite a bit , ashe is currently not in the cardsfor theZachary Levi led DC film .
The current design for Black Adam was guess to be thathe would debut in his solo movie , while the doer and Henry Cavillfueled speculation that a sports meeting - up with Superman inMan of Steel 2may be on the cards .

The Wrapis report the current architectural plan forSuicide Squad 2will feature Johnson piss his debut as Black Adam . No , the scoundrel wo n’t be part of the raw Task Force X batting order , but instead what they are after if the current program remains . The reported plot will see the Suicide Squad on a mission to ascertain a weapon of mass destruction , which turns out to be Black Adam .
Pitting the Suicide Squad against Black Adam would hardly be a bonny competitiveness , but gratefully that should n’t be a huge takings with this approximation . The report states it will be a small office for Johnson , minuscule enough that he can accommodate it into his incredibly busy schedule for next class , so fans should n’t gestate him to be the main baddie . Instead , Black Adam will be the MacGuffin for the team to find , but we still hope they ’ll have some increase flack power when that time comes .
Warner Bros. has been trying to find a way to get Johnson officially part of the DC worldly concern for quite some metre , so this will be a long time coming if this plan remains . WithWarrior’sGavin O’Connor write and directing the continuation , he could ’ve been the one to bring this melodic theme to the table , or it has been in the workings for a while - andthis is the surprising introduction The Rock hinted at before .
That all said , this is not yet support by Warner Bros. and plan could definitely exchange between now and when yield start . On that government note , The Wrapstates filmingwon’t begin until October of 2018 , which controvert the most late report thatfilming was going to start in March . push back the start date may be part of working in Black Adam , or but working around schedules forSuicide Squad ’s other star , or even give WB more time to decide on the longterm future of the DC universe post - Justice League . Whatever the showcase may be , Black Adam taking on Task Force X could be on its way .
