The new trailer of Black Adam has finally been released and it has set new high expectations for DC fans. The film marks Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson’s superhero debut. However, unlike most superheroes who save lives, Johnson’s superhero doesn’t shy away from killing people.
The Black Adam trailer opens with Black Adam’s origin story, revealing how the superhero went from being a human to a god. It teases sacrifices, lab experiments and whatnot. However, once he transforms, he appears unbeatable. The trailer shows the superhero oscillating between white and black characteristics. The trailer also features Pierce Brosnan, who plays Doctor Fate, Aldis Hodge as Hawkman, and Noah Centineo as Atom Smasher.

As reported by Comicbook.com, the official synopsis reads, “From New Line Cinema, Dwayne Johnson stars in the action-adventure ‘Black Adam.’ The first-ever feature film to explore the story of the DC Super Hero comes to the big screen under the direction of Jaume Collet-Serra (‘Jungle Cruise’). Nearly 5,000 years after he was bestowed with the almighty powers of the ancient gods— and imprisoned just as quickly—Black Adam (Johnson) is freed from his earthly tomb, ready to unleash his unique form of justice on the modern world.”
