"I'm honoured to join the iconic #DCUniverse and it's a true pleasure to become, BLACK ADAM. BLACK ADAM is blessed by magic with the powers equal to SUPERMAN, but the difference is he doesn't toe the mark or walk the line.

"He's a rebellious, one of a kind superhero, who'll always do what's right for the people - but he does it his way... This role is unlike any other I've ever played in my career and I'm grateful to the bone we'll all go on this journey together," Johnson posted on Instagram alongside the first look poster of the film. 

Jaume Collet-Serra is attached to direct Black Adam.
