1. Black Adam: Hero Or Villain?
Though a lot of what we say here may have pained Black Adam as a villain, there’s a good reason why The Rock and those involved with the movie have so far emphasised his anti-hero persona.
Though he’s sometimes let his power corrupt him, Adam truly believes that he’s doing the right thing as he seeks vengeance against those who abuse their power and enslave people. It’s this sort of persona which has made characters like Venom and The Punisher so popular, and Black Adam has been seen in a heroic light on more than one occasion.
With The Rock taking on the role, it wouldn’t be at all surprising for Adam to be made the lead, or for the movie to end in a way which sets him up for his own solo spin-off. In fact, Shazam and Black Adam have been known to team-up, so this movie could turn out to be very different from how it appears on the surface…
