Trivia[]
- Dwayne Johnson once asked his fans which character he should play, superhero Shazam or supervillain Black Adam. His fans chose Black Adam.
- Black Adam was originally going to appear in Shazam! (2019), but it was later revealed that he will instead make his debut in his own film.
- Jordan Peele was originally offered the chance to direct the film when it was first announced in 2017, but Peele declined, saying "I'm not a fan of superhero movies and I'd hate to take that chance away from a director who is passionate about them."
- The fourth live-action appearance of the Justice Society of America after Smallville (2001), Legends of Tomorrow (2016) and Stargirl (2020).
- The eleventh film in the DC Extended Universe.
- There were plans for Black Adam to appear in The Suicide Squad (2021), but those plans were scrapped when James Gunn took over that movie.
- Hawkman actor Aldis Hodge used Dwayne Johnson for gym motivation to improve his superhero physique during the workout & training prep for the film. He said, "The Rock is always throwing up videos on Instagram. Every time I see him I feel like he's gained 100 more pounds. And I'll just be up in the gym looking at myself with the little subtle flex and I'm not getting anything. Nothing is happening to me. It keeps me motivated because I'll be in the gym taking a minute on a bike or something like that, and then I see him in the gym all swole and I'm like, 'I must do better.'"
- Hawkgirl and Stargirl were originally going to appear but were removed in favor of Cyclone.
