The Rock Teases Cameos in ‘Black Adam’, ‘Shazam!’ Casting News and More! – ComicCorp News

The Rock Teasing Cameo? – The Rock is set to star as Black Adam in the upcoming stand alone film, tentatively titled Black Adam.  While speaking to Film Starts, The Rock revealed some interesting tidbits, like cameos and such, saying;

With Black Adam, I don’t think we’re going to start early next year.  Early next year right now it looks like I’m going to be shooting Jumanji, and then after that, if everything goes well I’ll shoot a movie called Red Notice with Rawson Thurber again, with Gal Gadot, and another actor yet to be named. But Black Adam possibly at the end of next year. It’s coming along great, the script is coming along great we’re very happy with it.”

 

Without giving anything away, there MIGHT be maybe a cameo or two of some of the other DC superheroes.  We’ll see. That’s been the beauty of Black Adam as we’ve been developing it is that we could make a movie that just stood on its own too as well, but that’s also the beauty of those universes coming together at DC.
