Movie lovers got a treat on the third weekend in October. That’s when DC released the first look at Black Adam, the new superhero movie that was produced in Georgia.
The movie filmed in Atlanta in mid-2021, when producers were hiring people en masse for the project. Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson stars in the lead role.
Watch The Trailer For Black Adam
Created by Otto Binder and C. C. Beck, Black Adam is the arch enemy of Captain Marvel and has some major plot points in the DC Comics superhero pantheon. In the title role, The Rock will play an ancient Egyptian named Teth-Adam, aka Black Adam.
The movie was originally greenlit as Shazam in 2017 but casting delays put in on the shelf. Once The Rock signed on, filming was postponed again due to the pandemic.
Last Word
The Rock is amped about the role. He posted this on Instagram:
“The hierarchy of power in the DC UNIVERSE is about to change. Shout to my long time strength and conditioning coach @daverienzi for the ever evolving, strategic road map to success for this film and character. Month by month, week by week, day by day. 277 lbs of mean and nasty.”

Production on the sequel to Black Panther will remain in Georgia, according to its director.Ryan Coogler penned a letter about Georgia’s recent passing of restrictive voting laws. In the article, which was published on several entertainment websites, Coogler acknowledges the destruction that Georgia’s recently passed voting laws could do to local businesses.Black Panther 2 Director Ryan Coogler Says Production Will Remain In Georgia
Here is Coogler’s statement, according to Deadline.
The fight for full enfranchisement is fundamental to the African-American struggle in this country and to this country’s claim to functioning democracy. As an African-American, and as a citizen, I oppose all attempts, explicit and otherwise, to shrink the electorate and reduce access to the ballot. I say this as I return to Georgia, a state that holds a special place in my heart. I lived in Atlanta for eight months while filming my last movie. I have long looked forward to returning. But, when I was informed of the passage of SB202 in the state, and its ramifications for the state’s voters, I was profoundly disappointed.
But that’s also the reason why Coogler decided to keep production of Black Panther 2 in the Peach State.“Many of the people employed by [Black Panther 2], including all the local vendors and businesses we engage, are the very same people who will bear the brunt of SB202,” Coogler wrote.“Our film is staying in Georgia,” Coogler added. “Additionally, I have made a personal commitment to raise awareness about ways to help overturn this harmful bill, and continue to get educated on this matter from people on the ground. I will encourage everyone working with me to tap in with the local community directly affected by Senate Bill 202 and to leverage their influence and resources to aid in the fight for this particular and essential pillar of democracy.”
In response to the letter, political activist and former Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams tweeted her support of Coogler. “Thank you to Ryan Coogler and #BlackPanther2 for staying in Georgia and fighting for access to democracy. #gapol #WakandaForever
