If you were walking through Times Square on Sunday — and honestly, I’m not sure how many people were — you would have been greeted with the booming sound of Johnson intoning “the balance of power in the DC Universe is about to change…” and every electronic billboard shifting to the Black Adam logo.

BLACK ADAM is coming July 29, 2022.

So now you know. July 29, 2022. Which is also apparently the release date for Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the CVS, but I’m going to bet that Disney dare not go up against The Rock. After all, that man’s going to be President someday.
