When he’s not shooting Black Adam and teasing his plans to run for president, Dwayne Johnson is apparently busy behind the scenes trying to restore the SnyderVerse. Reports have been swirling lately that The Rock could be the one to rescue the original DCEU and prevent Warner Bros. from wiping out what Zack Snyder established in his movies. According to the latest intel, Johnson’s plowing ahead with his intentions to bring the SnyderVerse stars back, despite WB’s plans for the exact opposite.
Mikey Sutton of Geekosity shared some new intel on the situation. Matching up with what we’ve heard before, the studio allegedly intends to reboot the DCEU with The Flash movie. For them, this is where the SnyderVerse will well and truly end. However, Johnson will apparently ignore this as he wants the original DCEU to continue in his own Black Adam franchise. As per Sutton, there is a “private tug-of-war” going on between The Rock and WB right now.
However, as you would figure, Johnson is said to be the favorite to win this battle. Sutton’s source shared that the star is not going to bow down to the studio on this one. “The Rock is making Black Adam the way he always envisioned, and nobody will stand in his way,” says the unnamed insider.
Though we shouldn’t expect the likes of Henry Cavill’s Superman to show up until Black Adam 2, Geekosity writes that SnyderVerse events will be referenced in the first film, which will link it to those movies from the off. Apparently, even Darkseid will get a mention. Shazam! likewise nodded to Snyder’s efforts in various ways, though these were mostly tongue-in-cheek. It seems The Rock is keen to take it a bit more seriously. Like Sutton says, the future of the SnyderVerse in cinemas rests with Black Adam.
Dwayne Johnson is currently shooting the movie, which also features Aldis Hodge, Noah Centineo and Pierce Brosnan, ahead of its release in theaters on July 29th, 2022.
