In DC’s Black Adam, Johnson stars as the towering anti-hero, after he was originally set to appear in the 2019 film Shazam! in the Black Adam role, with his character being the primary villain.
But after concerns from producers that Johnson might be wasted as a villain in that film, he was removed from it and given his own solo Black Adam film, and he and Shazam are now planned to meet in a future installment.
