New Delhi, Oct 17: “Black Adam” is a “disruptive” entry into the DC Extended Universe (DCEU) and to the superhero genre, says Hollywood star Dwayne Johnson.
In an effort to introduce the brawling character on the big screen, Johnson said the team was focused on delivering a different and unique movie to the fans of the genre and the DC universe. “We all wanted to make a film that was different and unique in this world of superhero genre that has been so wildly successful over the years and has led our business for over a decade,” the 50-year-old actor said during a global press conference, also attended by PTI.
“We have tried to come in and create a movie that was disruptive, that was different. And there was this narrative that we had been saying and we were saying it even when we were making the movie, that we wanted to usher in a new era in the DC universe,” he added.
According to Johnson, the team wanted to accomplish the goal of inducting new characters into the fold of the DCEU, populated by fan favourite superheroes like Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman.
“We wanted to introduce new characters to the world, which is not easy to do. We did it with intrigue and interest and with respect to mythology and to the DC fans. (PTI)
