9-Year-Old Hugh Jackman Film Delivers a Huge Blow to Dwayne Johnson’s Black Adam in Early 2023

Dwayne Johnson has established himself as one of the biggest names in the industry. Johnson’s rise began after a failed football career. After failing to achieve the desired success in football, Johnson found an alternative and joined pro wrestling.

Soon after joining WWE, Johnson started rising the ranks and became one of the most successful wrestlers on the roster. However, after a few years at the top, Johnson found an alternative and joined Hollywood as a promising young actor.

Last year, Dwayne Johnson’s most anticipated film, Black Adam released. However, the film failed to hit the mark with the critics. Although, the fans loved the film and the action it portrayed, along-with the much awaited performance, it still failed to impress the critics.

Black Adam was also unable to muster a desirable number at the box-office.  However, another critically acclaimed film from nine years ago recently made history.

Dennis Villenvue’s Prisoners is a highly acclaimed film starring Jake Gyllenhaal and Hugh Jackman. The movie came out in 2013, and after nine years, it has finally reached the top spot as a streamed movie in the USA.

A few months after releasing in theaters in October, Black Adam was released on the OTT platforms as well.  Black Adam lost to a decade old film of Hugh Jackman. A report by Comicbook.com states that Prisoners was watched 85o million minutes in a week, while Black Adam was watched just 630 million minutes.

Similarly for the 2014 film, Hercules, Dwayne Johnson underwent a massive physique transformation. He also had to undergo three and a half hours of makeup sessions everyday to get into his look as Hercules. However, the beard which Dwayne Johnson sported in the film, was made using pubic hair of a yak.

This particular type of hair was chosen since it was soft, and would not irritate the skin of Johnson.
