Black Adam: 10 Things You Need To Know About Dwayne Johnson's DC Movie

10. Black Adam Is TRULY Badass

Make no mistake about it, Black Adam is not a character to be trifled with. During DC FanDome, Johnson confirmed that the character will be an anti-hero, but dropped some hints about the magically charged character not holding back like a traditional superhero might.

"This idea that you can take all of Black Adam's powers and he does not practice restraint...that makes for a really powerful combination," Johnson said. "One that is explosive, dangerous, and really likeable in my opinion." He would go on to point out that, "He is a ruthless keeper of justice, the judge, the jury, and the executioner. He will always do everything he can to protect his people, and more so his family."

The actor later confirmed that Black Adam is one of the "most powerful" characters in the entire DC Extended Universe, and seemed to indicate that the rest of this world's heroes will be forced to bow before the might of this anti-hero. "Flash. Aquaman. Wonder Woman. Batman and Superman...things will never be the same. Because the hierarchy of power in the DC Universe is about to change."
