Black Adam Movie Reportedly Casting Justice Society of America’s CycloneAccording to The Illuminerdi, a casting call has gone out for the role of Cyclone in Black Adam, a wind-manipulating legacy heroine of the JSA. The production is reportedly looking for an actress in her 20s to play what will be the film’s leading female character. In the comics, Cyclone’s real name is Maxine Hunkel, a college student and granddaughter of the Golden Age’s Red Tornado, Abigail “Ma” Hunkel. Cyclone is a relatively new character in the DC Comics Universe, and it is unclear how she will be incorporated in not only Black Adam but the DCEU and its ever-changing landscape.
The Shazam! family has once again left the building:
When Black Adam faces off with the JSA in the past, their roster will reportedly feature a younger version of the Wizard Shazam, Hawkman & Hawkgirl, Doctor Fate, Jay Garrick, and Alan Scott. While most of these characters were previously rumored, this is the first mention of the Wizard appearing in the film.
This version of the JSA will not be the only challenge Johnson’s character faces as he will also face a modern version of the team. When the movie shifts to the present day, a reformed team will feature the reincarnated forms of Hawkman & Hawkgirl, Doctor Fate, Atom Smasher, and Cyclone. The team will be working alongside Black Adam’s love interest Isis aka Adrianna.
"We plan on shooting probably at the end of summer now," Johnson said. "Probably pushed maybe into August, maybe September."
It doesn't even need her.
WW vs Black Adam would sell this movie IMO.
Anybody know if the rumors of Zeeko Zaki and Sofia Boutella being cast as the Hawks has any merit to it? I hope so because that would be perfect casting!!
