Black Adam
If the Shazam movie hits a hiccup, at least DC have the Black Adam solo movie to fall back on instead. This one would see Shazam’s nemesis in the lead role, which would be a much better fit for a star of Johnson’s stature, let’s face it. The actor has often spoken about how he sees Adam as a hero, particularly due to his sympathetic backstory of being a slave, so it’s likely that a Black Adam movie would deal with the character’s origin story.
No release date has currently been set for the film, but stay tuned for more.
Justice League 2
Originally, it was announced the Justice League movie would be split into two parts. At some point, however, this plan was changed and Justice League 2 became a straight-up sequel. All we can say about the movie at this point is conjecture, but we imagine that the core six Justice Leaguers of the first film will return (assuming, that is, that Ben Affleck doesn’t ditch the Batman role, as is rumoured).
There’s also a good chance of Darkseid making an appearance as the big bad, after his general Steppenwolf features in the first JL movie. Zack Snyder is confirmed to direct – his fourth entry in the DCEU – and it’s earmarked for a June 14th, 2019 release.
