The new MultiVersus video game has a little fun at the expense of both Dwayne Johnson and Black Adam.
Footage from the game has surfaced online which happens to feature The Batman Who Laughs cracking a joke while about to fight Black Adam.
“Weren’t you supposed to be ‘rearranging the hierarchy’ or something?” states the character.
Watch below.
What does it mean?
In case you are lost and are not familiar, while promoting the release of the Black Adam movie, in multiple social media posts, Dwayne Johnson would say, “The hierarchy of power in the DC universe is about to change.”
Well, what ended up happening is that the Black Adam movie didn’t perform all too well (still the best performing DC movie since the first 2018’s Aquaman, as Lost Kingdom had a Chinese release date while Black Adam did not, where Johnson is huge; so, if you take away Aquaman 2’s China release, The Rock is still on top).
Johnson tried bringing back Henry Cavill as Superman and he also attempted to take over DC films; however, from what I am told, WBD CEO David Zaslav had other plans and instead went with James Gunn whom he told to reboot DC with cheaper talent and budgets.
