New Black Adam set photos reveal The Rock in full costume

The new set photos come just days after Johnson revealed a small close-up look at Black Adam and it's clear just how much effort the production team put into making sure that Johnson's Black Adam is comic accurate. The stills, which features Johnson with a hood on and without one, show just how closely his live-action adaptation's costume matches the source material. We also get to see just how dedicated and hands-on Johnson is, watching footage in between takes to make the film the best version that it can be.

Black Adam is a big deal for the DCEU

and superhero movies, in general. It's not necessarily R-18, but it will "push the boundaries" of violence. Not to mention, it's one of the few superhero movies to completely revolve around an anti-hero and not a full-on villain or vigilante. We don't know exactly how

Johnson will portray Black Adam

in the film, but we've seen how his character won't hesitate to kill.

Having said that, a lot is also hinging on Black Adam. The DCEU desperately needs its live-action movies to do well. After The Suicide Squad bombed at the global box office, their "post-pandemic" slate must do better. It's not just because it'll be nice to see Warner Bros. and the DCEU pull through, but more competition is always better for audiences.
