If I could choose a character to share the screen with, I would say Wonder Woman, I have a lot of respect for her and I think she would form a perfect match with Black Adam, the other part of this answer is about Superman. I always thought that a fight with Superman would be great, they are very similar in terms of strength. At the end of the day, they might become friends, or maybe not… my character will still be a ruthless keeper of justice.

The cast also includes: Quintessa Swindell (Trinkets, Euphoria, Voyagers), non-binary and non-Caucasian actress, who was chosen to play Maxine Hunkel or the young heroine Cyclone.

In fact, Noah Centineo has already been confirmed in the role of Atom Smasher, a hero capable of controlling his molecular structure by increasing size, strength and resistance. This version of the character should be based on the one created by David S. Goyer and James Dale Robinson who first appeared in 1999's JSA Secret Files # 1.



Aldis Hodge (Leverage, Hidden Figures, Straight Outta Compton, Underground) who will play Hawkman in the film. One of the most colorful, and complicated, characters in DC mythology was created by Gardner Fox and Dennis Neville debuting in 1941 in Flash Comics # 1.
