Black Adam movie preview
Nearly 5,000 years ago in Kahndaq, Teth-Adam was bestowed with the almighty powers of the Egyptian gods to defeat its vicious ruler. Choosing these powers for vengeance, becoming the Black Adam, he angered the ancient gods and imprisoned for his revenge-driven justice. In the present day, the antihero is freed from his earthly tomb, ready to unleash his unique form of justice on the modern world.
Enter the modern day heroes forming the Justice Society: Hawkman, Dr. Fate, Atom Smasher and Cyclone. Intent on stopping Black Adam from his anger-driven justice, they use their powers and impressive tech to attempt to negotiate and change his mind. With the tragedy of the past haunting him and feeling his inability to become a true hero, Black Adam eventually surrenders to the Justice Society.
But when a nemesis is successfully reborn as Sabbac, who rises from the underworld to claim his throne, the team must release the ancient being they’ve imprisoned as the fate of humanity hangs in the balance. Together with Black Adam, Hawkman, Dr. Fate, Atom Smasher and Cyclone battle Sabbac and the Legions of Hell to save the world from its impending doom.
