It’s honestly disappointing given DC clearly had some plans to build toward the two characters sharing the screen, but that was before recent changes to the DC leadership.įollowing the release of Black Adam, it was decided DC would not be proceeding with a sequel to the film and that the studio had opted to part ways with Johnson. In fact, there is not even a mention of Black Adam in the sequel. That’s right, Johnson does not reprise his role as Black Adam in Shazam 2 with the film failing to feature an appearance from Johnson in any form. While there are some fun cameos in Shazam! Fury of the Gods, Dwayne Johnson is not among them. However, Black Adam did not make an appearance in the first Shazam movie and Shazam was MIA in last year’s Black Adam. Now that Shazam! Fury of the Gods has arrived, fans seem eager to know if the film brought the long-anticipated showdown between the two characters. The two characters’ paths seemed prime to cross in the DCEU with fans expecting an action-packed battle between the two characters. However, unlike Shazam, Black Adam uses his powers for his own gain and is often seen as an anti-hero. Black Adam, originally an ancient Egyptian ruler, was granted his powers by the same wizard who granted them to Shazam. DC had been building toward a Black Adam and Shazam showdown, but does that come to fruition in Shazam! Fury of the Gods?įrom the moment the first Shazam film was announced, DC fans have been eagerly waiting to see Black Adam and Shazam face off in an epic battle.įor those who may not be familiar with the characters, Black Adam and Shazam both possess superhuman strength, agility, and stamina.
