Black Adam Trailer Breakdown and Easter Eggs: Dwayne Johnson, Pierce Brosnan, and More

The wait is finally over. DC just released the first full trailer for their latest superhero movie, Black Adam. After the concept trailer and a teaser, this is the first time we have seen Dwayne Johnson, Pierce Brosnan, Aldis Hodge, and many more in action.

You can watch the trailer for this upcoming superhero movie above.

Black Adam Trailer Breakdown

The trailer starts with a long shot of a JSA hovercraft flying above, which appears again when introducing the other superheroes. As we saw in the teaser trailer, some explorers woke Black Adam from his deep sleep. Starting from Black Adam’s origin in Khandaq, we see Adam’s struggle in the modern world throughout the trailer.

We see Aldis Hodge’s Hawkman drop from the opening hovercraft, and then we cut to Hawkman in a full suit of armor. Also, we see our first look at Noah Centineo’s Atom Smasher running across the street. And finally, we see Doctor Fate in action as he wears his shows off his mystical powers with Cyclone launching into battle from the hovercraft.

In a standoff with Hawkman, we see the two superhumans stare down at each other before showing us Adam launching a man off the land. Followed by some amazing action sequences where Adam flips off an airplane with just a flick of his hand. The trailer ends as Adam saves Isis, played by Sarah Shahi, and a character played by Mohammed Amer from a rocket. The hand of Adam clings to the window of the car as the title screen is revealed.

Black Adam Trailer Easter Eggs: Dwayne Johnson, Ibac, Aman, and More

The first Easter Egg comes in the form of Adam’s backstory flashbacks. We see the ruler of Ancient Khandaq, Ibac, who kills Black Adam, played by Dwayne Johnson. After that, we see Aman, the child that the wizard chooses to be his champion. Moreover, from the narration of Black Adam, it seems like DC is looking to reinvent the character’s origin.

We see each of the JSA members’ abilities on full display. Hawkman in his gorgeous golden suit flaps his gigantic wings. Atom Smasher runs through the city in his giant form. With his mystical powers, Doctor Fate alters reality and Cyclone jumps out of the aircraft in a distorted manner.

Another noticeable thing is that Isis makes an appearance three times during the entire trailer. One in the flashback as a poor woman slaved under Ibac’s rule, second with a young boy in the modern world. And the last time she appears with another character as it looks like Black Adam is hunting them down when a rocket appears.

In that last scene, we can see ‘Shiruta Electronics’ labeled across it. In the comics, Shiruta is the capital city of Khandaq, named after the wife of Black Adam. This might be a hint for Adam to find Isis in the modern era.

All this speculation has got us excited to watch the movie sooner rather than later. But it looks like we will have to wait till October 21 for the movie to release.
