15 Upcoming Comic Book Movie Villains We Can’t Wait To See
1. Black Adam
The Movie: Black Adam
Played By: Dwayne The Rock Johnson
It was only a matter of time before someone gave The Rock a chance to play a superhero, given how he looks and the immediate bankability he brings to movies, and it proved to be DC who managed the coup of casting him.
And instead of him playing a typical muscle-bound hero, the former WWE star chose instead to go villainous, playing sometimes anti-hero Black Adam, who it was assumed would play the villain in the upcoming Shazam! movie. According to Geoff Johns that won't be the case (though we can SURELY expect a cameo at least setting his own movie up), but the prospect of seeing the charismatic Johnson play a villain with a real, complex arc is very exciting.
He probably won't stay a villain for too long, but if The Rock gets his own way, we might get to see him fight Superman, which would be a hell of a way to introduce him.
