The countdown is on to the arrival of ‘Black Adam’ on the big screen.

Dwayne Johnson [The Rock] has been tapped to star as the superhero in the Warner Bros action-adventure, which is unleashed this October.

Helmed by director Jaume Collet-Serra, the movie serves as the first to explore the story of the dynamic D.C figure.

Almost 5,000 years after being bestowed with the seismic powers of the ancient gods—and thrown behind bars just as swiftly—Black Adam (Johnson) is freed from his earthly tomb, ready to unleash his unique form of justice on the modern world.

Moments ago at Comic-Con 2022, Johnson was on-hand to unwrap a new extended preview of the flick – which also stars Aldis Hodge and Pierce Brosnan.

Check it out after the jump…

‘Black Adam’ hits theaters internationally on 19 October 2022 and in North America on October 21, 2022.
