Black Adam Movie Happening Before Shazam 3

CelebNMovies247.com reports that a movie adventure centered on the big DC bad guy will be coming down the pipeline before the showdown commences.

Dwayne Johnson has been attached to Black Adam for some time now and Peter Safran recently responded to the question on The Rock’s Black Adam and Zachary Levi’s Shazam showdown.

Here is what Safran said:

Listen, we don’t know but I’ve gotta believe that there’s gonna be a standalone Black Adam movie before there’s ever a movie with Shazam and Black Adam sharing the screen.

Originally, the plan was to have Black Adam as the villain in this first Shazam movie. Instead, it was decided that Dwayne Johnson should be given a standalone movie first.

The first villain for Shazam will be Doctor Sivana, as portrayed by Mark Strong instead.

The reason why the shift in villains?

The studio has to work around Johnson’s very busy schedule get to Black Adam made, then plan another movie in which these two can duke it out.

Before you say this isn’t going to happen, think again, because DC has a possible date set for sometime in 2021.

Plus, The Rock’s camp is confident Black Adam will happen at some point. Peter Safran spoke a bit further about the shift in DC Films, following the release of Justice League

Yeah, I think that is the goal, it is giving heroes their time to shine and not feeling like you have to shoehorn in some universal connection amongst them all. The studio’s been incredibly supportive and DC’s been supportive about saying take the time that you need to introduce these characters in the right way and tell the stories that you really want to tell, and that the audiences really want to see with these characters.
