Dwayne Johnson Opens Up On Making A 'Black Adam vs. Superman' Movie In DCEU

Los Angeles, October 11 - Dwayne Johnson aka The Rock clearly doesn't want to play Black Adam who does not fight Superman in the DC Extend Universe (DCEU) on the big screen going ahead.

In a recent interview (via Variety), Johnson was asked if he intends to make a movie where Black Adam fights Superman. "Absolutely. That is the whole point of this, man", he said, "I have been saying for some time, there's a new era in the DC Universe that's about to begin".



"And what I meant by that was introducing a brand new character. It's not a sequel, not an existing IP. It was... you know, Black Adam. Two years ago the world had no idea who he was. We did, but not the rest of the masses out there. What I really meant by, 'This is a new era in the DC Universe', is listening to the fans. And doing our best to give the fans what they want", he added.

Johnson further said, "I have been listening and I've been wanting to address fans for years", regarding the desire to have Black Adam and Superman fight on the big screen.

"I've been waiting for someone to step up and address the fans and say, 'Hey, we hear you", Johnson added. "So finally, after many months turned into many years, we ended up with what we ended up at. And the whole goal and intention now are to this new era, a new time. Now let’s build-out".

There are rumours that Henry Cavill as Superman will appear in "Black Adam", which is scheduled to release on October 20 in India in English, Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu. Warner Bros., however, hasn't released anything regarding Cavill's role so there could be a surprise for the fans or it may turn out just a rumor.
