Dwayne Johnson aka The Rock to Play Black Adam in Shazam FilmDwayne “The Rock” Johnson will play the role of Black Adam in the upcoming “Shazam!” feature. The actor shared the following with /Film at the Southland Tales junket today:

“I just met with Pete Segal last night, we had a great meeting on Shazam!, and we’re just waiting for John August to hand in another draft. Which probably will be handed in months from now after the strike.”

“And not Shazam but Black Adam, that’s now very clear. He’s a character that I can’t wait to play. They first approached me about playing Captain Marvel, and they also said ‘and there’s also this interesting character too called Black Adam.’ I said oh, okay, great. And we went down to Comic-Con to show the trailer of Get Smart. Down there talking to all the fans they were like ‘you should look into Black Adam.’”

    The Civil Lawsuit against Mr Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson in the Superior Court of Arizona was met in mediation in April 2008.Even though Mr Johnsons attorney signed/agreeing to a mediation settlement to “resolve” the matter-Mr Johnson nor his staff has met ANY of the settlement agreement-thus breaking the mediation agreement!

    The news reports “positive” stories about actors,when they mess up-those “not so positive” stories need to be told too:

    Civil Lawsuit has been filed against Mr Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson in the Superior Court of Arizona.
    His staff continued to ignore all efforts made by family of totally disabled & poor health young woman to contact them & work situation out-leaving them no choice but to file lawsuit.No money sought.
