we know that Dwayne Johnson he’s not just an actor, he represents a kind of mega-corporation that can incorporate and develop not just movie projects, but entire tent poles. For this reason, his latest statements hint at just how much the actor is already at the center of the… DC movieseven for that Black Adam to go to the cinema. And we are not talking about a simple and already important cinematographic figure, but also about a real head and coordinator of the side projects, as if he were the Kevin Feige by DC Movies.
A few days ago, the interpreter spoke clearly about the shift in perspective at DC Films, and how important the goal is to get to projects that please fans, like Black Adam vs Superman.
Going to do Black Adam vs Superman is the goal – he said – I’ve said a few times that this is the beginning of a new era for the DC Universe. We’re adding new characters and we’re not making a sequel, it’s a Black Adam story. Two years ago no one knew him. In this new era of the DC Universe, we want to listen to fans, to give them what they want. For years, something like this has been expected, and we have arrived at the dawn of a new era of the DC Universe.
The Rock speaks not only as an actor, nor as a film producer, but as the creative mind behind the development of an entire narrative universe. In this sense, we can understand his statements that even speak of a crossover between Marvel and DC.
I’m optimistic – he declared – it’s my nature, and that’s especially true in the creative and film field. And that’s even more true when we talk about DC Comics and superheroes and villains. And there are also a lot of Marvel superheroes and villains on the other side. In my opinion, they don’t just exist, but sooner or later they have to cross.
Dwayne Johnson will certainly try to create as many intriguing projects as possible in the world of cinecomics, given the importance of cine comics today, and taking into account the majesty of his name in Hollywood. In fact, we remember the importance of his production company, Seven Bucks, with which he already produced the animated film Super Pets (released in theaters in September) for DC. With his production company, Johnson has produced features like Baywatch and Jumanjj, and will clearly be behind Black Adam, as well as Shazam!: Fury of the Gods.
The Rock wants to take DC to the top and therefore has no plans to move to Marvel.
I’m not going to side with Marvel – he noted a few days ago – because we are building a new era of the DC universe, and this is my goal. Marvel and Kevin Feige have done an amazing thing, I love them and they are my friends. But we don’t want to be Marvel, we’re DC. I don’t want to bite the apple, but grab a new one and sow something in it.
Statements that suggest Dwayne Johnson wants to play a pivotal role for DC Films. The first critiques of Black Adam speak of a well-centered film, and that it could represent the beginning of a new course. We know that from October 20 in cinemas.
