AlthoughBlack Adamis not the first DCEU plastic film to follow across with multiple obstacle that have delay its production , it does suffer out because his origination has been in development for a bit over a decennary . Black Adamwill finally exhaust in 2021 , but why did it take so long ?
Dwayne Johnson Has Been Attached To Black Adam For 12 Years
If there ’s somethingBlack Adamhasn’t struggled with is finding its lead man . Dwayne Johnson has actually been bond to dally the main role since 2007 , when New Line Cinema was working on a resilient - actionShazam!film that would have introduced Black Adam . The projection had Peter Segal attached as director and was apparently quick to enter production , but it was ultimately shelved in 2009 – right at the beginning of the on-going superhero tendency .
Why Black Adam Has Had So Many Delays
The project was resurrect after the success ofMan of Steel , with Johnson still attached to dally Black Adam as he was still design to be introduce inShazam ! . However , in 2017 it was divulge thatBlack Adamis get his own filmbut still as part of the DCEU , thus he did n’t seem inShazam ! – but the film did help lay up his solo adventure . Still , Black Adam was teased to have cameo appearances inShazam!andSuicide Squad 2(before James Gunn was brought in as director ) , but those ended up being just rumour . collet chuck - Serra was confirmed as directorin June , 2019 and Johnson himself partake thatBlack Adamwill start filming in July 2020 , with Warner Bros giving it an official release date a few week later .
Although Black Adam was originally intended to be innovate alongside Shazam , it seems weird that the studio apartment , already having Johnson on board to star , kept delaying his debut just becauseShazam!couldn’t find its manner out of development limbo . Black Adam ’s delay can also be attributed in part to Johnson ’s always busy agenda , as he has been working non - stop for the past decade . Patience is give off andBlack Adamis officially on track to finally join the DCEUand , hopefully , aid its improvement .
