Dwayne Johnson has been linked with the role of Black Adam for nearly a decade, with a film titled about the character finally set to debut in October. With Johnson enjoying a long-standing reputation for his long acting career, it should come as no surprise that the wrestler-turned-Hollywood star has brought so much of his ideas and work ethic into productions. black Adam. While speaking to the press during a pre-release Q&A black Adamsecond trailer, black Adam Stars Aldis Hodge, Quintessa Swindle, Sarah Shahi, and Mohamed Aamer talk about how Johnson set the standard to live up to each other and the film.
“There aren’t enough hours in the day for him to get everything he needs to do,” Shahi, who plays a new DC character named Adriana in black Adam, He said. “Every minute is spent improving something he’s involved in. And when he was in the mode of working with the movie, it was for the movie. And then the minute it was finished, it was about something else. But he was incredibly involved and so supportive. I remember That I asked him once, because Mo had his own, and the DJ recorded this thing for an intro about your special. And I remember saying to him, I was like, ‘That was so kind of you who-that.’ And why did you do that? “
Shahi, with a long list of credits including films in which she starred with prominent actors, has noted how unusual it is to see someone with such a high reach be regularly supportive of the people around them. “They are not generous with themselves,” Shahi said. “And he’s someone who is incredibly generous to himself, his life, and others. And he’s new to me to experience. And I was like, ‘That was really, really nice of you to do that.'” And why did I do that? I’m just curious. And he said, “You know, Sarah,” he said, “I love Moe.” And he was like, “When I love people, I want to see people win.” This is very true. And I feel like every one of us has been on the receiving end of that. And as an actor, as a producer, all of those things, he was very supportive. “
Hawkman representative Hodge shared some humor about Johnson. “Here’s the thing they didn’t tell you about DJs,” he joked. “It’s actually triplets and that’s what they could have been everywhere at once.”
More seriously, he had a specific example of how Johnson helped improve the film’s sequence and provide an idea that could make Hodge’s Hawkman character even more likable. Hodge explained. “But there was one line in my character, we were in a tense situation. And I said that, and the DJ was like, ‘Eh, we have to change that.’ Do you know what I’m saying? And he’s like, ‘Okay, well, let’s change it up because this comes off a little rough. I think it would make him a little… People might think he’s a little mean. We want them to understand it and root for it. We’re not trying to discredit Hawkman at this moment. We’re trying to make him… he’s a leader, but we want to understand. So we’re going to swap out these lines a little bit. We’re going to do this, da da da, to give him the space and platform that the audience here supports. “
According to Hodge, “He did that for everyone, in terms of giving us room to step forward to shine.” The actor promises that the audience will leave Black Adam. “You won’t leave this,” he said, “I wish I had a little more of that.” “I mean, you’d definitely want more, but you wouldn’t lack the full experience of all of these characters. And that was something that I thought was very important to the DJ and the entire production team right from the start, is to make sure everyone shined. He was so generous in sharing the stage. And that was really important to them, and we appreciate that.”
Aamir, who is joining the DC universe as a new character, echoed the sentiment. “Just seeing him in that role was so different from anything he’s done before where he’s happy, joking, whatever personality type and to see him so serious and stumbling and just saying, ‘Just kill them,’ it sounds like,” what Aamir said. “It’s so weird to see that happen. When we were working together, there were a few times where I would look at her and say, ‘Oh, that would be cool.'” It’s like everything he’s done in his career so far, has been amazing and amazing. I don’t know how he managed to keep it. Really, it’s just amazing. And then you get to this moment, as you want, ‘Oh it was all for this “.
