Dwayne Johnson Updates Black Adam; Also Starring As Krypto

Dwayne Johnson gives an update on the Black Adam movie as filming continues, and The Rock will also be voicing Krypto the Superdog in an animated movie.

Johnson posted a set image on social media offering a look at the massive Black Adam set.

“BLACK ADAM update. Wanted to show you guys this cool shot of our enormous scale and massive production efforts at our sound stages. Zoom in and take a look,” said Johnson on Instagram. “We’re hitting our midway point stride and our A-Team production crew continue to showcase why they’re the best in our industry. This is one inspiring production to be on. Post covid and back to work. The hierarchy of power in the DC UNIVERSE is about to change.”

Taking a close look at the image seems to reveal it might be a part of some sort of battle scene as debris and smashed cars can be seen in the image.

It’s known that Black Adam is set to take on the Justice Society, with rumors offering not just once but twice, so perhaps this involves that epic battle.

Black Adam has a July 29, 2022 release date.
