We’re just months away from the release of Black Adam, a DC Films entry that will finally bring Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson into the superhero space. The film has shown segments of footage in the lead-up to its release, including in fan events like DC FanDome. The most recent look at the film arrived at this week’s CinemaCon presentation, with a teaser that has not been released to the public, but has been described in descriptions online. One aspect of the footage has been an exchange between Johnson’s Black Adam and Carter Hall / Hawkman (Aldis Hodge), in which Hawkman argues that “heroes don’t kill people.” Johnson responded to a fan who was confused by the line, and indicated that everything will make sense once they see the finished film.
Once you watch Black Adam you’ll understand the context of the line. It makes sense.The mythology of Teth/Black Adam. Ruthless with zero regard.
