The Problem With Black Adam in DC
Whether Johnson pushes for a Black Adam sequel or not, the ongoing DC Universe’s power structure may not accommodate one, which is one of the drama’s primary plot themes. The movie currently has a worldwide gross of around $400 million while having a production expenditure of between $190 million and $230 million. Fans of Johnson and Black Adam should regret that this meager profit margin is typically insufficient to justify a return to the big screen.

• Wonder Woman 3 not moving forward
• Black Adam 2 unlikely

The end-credit scene with Henry Cavill’s Superman’s return in a face-to-face encounter with the guardian of Kahndaq was the movie’s most thrilling revelation. Johnson and his production firm have strongly advocated for black Adam vs. Superman.
Cavill was forced to reprise his blue tights for the appearance earlier than Warner Bros. had planned, thanks to Seven Bucks Productions’ persistent efforts.
If I had known that Black Adam was going to be my last chance to see Henry on the big screen, I would’ve taken the time to go see it.

I’m glad we’ll be getting another Superman movie but I’m sad that we won’t be seeing Henry as the Man of Steel anymore. pic.twitter.com/Ndd0231tIF
The Justice Society of America stood in the way of Black Adam’s first superpower obstacle, despite the movie setting up a potential battle between two of DC’s most potent characters. A crew composed of Atom Smasher, Cyclone, and Doctor Fate was dispatched to stop the newly awakened legend of Kahndaq under the leadership of Carter Hall, alias Hawkman, played by Aldis Hodge. Teth-Adam, who was not one for negotiations or capitulation, engaged the gang in several battles before forging a temporary alliance.
