Black Adam: Dwayne Johnson Says Hawkgirl Will Not be a Part of the Upcoming Feature Film

Dwayne Johnson was cast as the supervillain Black Adam way back in 2014. However, there was no news on the official release date for quite some time until in 2019 Black Adam got an official release date for December 2021. The feature film in the DC Extended Universe will also feature Noah Centineo as Atom Smasher, a member of the Justice Society of America.

Dwayne Johnson said that the character of Hawkgirl would not be included in the Black Adam movie. In DC’s virtual FanDome event, the Hollywood actor talked about a concept art-based trailer focusing on the origins of Black Adam. He further said that other characters to be included in the film would be Doctor Fate, Cyclone, and Hawkman. All three characters are also a part of the Justice Society of America.

Dwayne Johnson Does not Elaborate on the Reason Behind Hawkgirl’s Absence from Black Adam

Responding to a fan’s question, Dwayne Johnson said that even though Hawkgirl was a part of the original Justice Society of America team, she was not part of the movie because of a few things that happened behind the scenes and stopped her from being a part of Black Adam. However, Johnson did not elaborate on that statement. He said that Cyclone would be a part of the film, further adding that whatever happened was maybe meant to be.

As of now, Dwayne Johnson and Noah Centineo have been confirmed for Black Adam. There is still no clarity who would play the characters of the JSA members. DC’s FanDome event would have been the perfect opportunity to introduce other characters of the film, but the fans will have to wait till there is an official statement. Jaume Collet Serra will direct the movie.
