EXCLUSIVE: The Dwayne Johnson reteam with Jumanji franchise filmmaker Jake Kasdan, previously titled Red One at Prime Video, has started production, and Oscar winner J.K. Simmons and Emmy nominee Bonnie Hunt have boarded respectively as Santa and Mrs. Claus.
EXCLUSIVE: In the wake of Dwayne Johnson notching the highest opening of his solo star career with this weekend’s Black Adam at $67M, his holiday movie, currently titled Red One, is ramping up with additional castings: Deadline has learned that Nick Kroll, Kristofer Hivju, Wesley Kimmel and Mary Elizabeth Ellis are joining.
Even though “Black Adam” hasn’t even officially hit theaters yet, there’s already lots of buzz about the film’s end-credits scene. So, a spoiler alert if it’s not apparent to the reader what that scene entails: Henry Cavill returns as Superman to stare down Dwayne Johnson‘s Black Adam.
Zack Sharf SPOILER ALERT: This story references a major reveal that is included in the end-credits scene for “Black Adam.” Much of the weeks leading up to the release of “Black Adam” has been dominated by Dwayne Johnson touting his eponymous comic book character’s future fight against Superman. Johnson has all but confirmed that his “Black Adam” movie will reintroduce Henry Cavill as Superman after he took on the role in films such as “Man of Steal,” “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” and “Justice League.” But “Black Adam” producer Hiram Garcia recently told CinemaBlend (via Collider) that a Superman vs. Black Adam fight won’t just be defined by just a “one-off” movie.
“Black Adam” this week, but when the superhero pic was first submitted to the MPA, it earned an R rating.“We were battling with the [MPA] for a while, we were an R rating for several weeks, and it took a lot of work to get us under, to like make enough little tweaks to be able to get to that PG-13 bar,” producer Hiram Garcia told TheWrap in a recent interview.Johnson’s Black Adam is an anti-hero-like character who doles out his own sense of justice, killing at will, which stands in contrast to a number of other major superheroes that normally front their own movies.But Garcia, who is also president of production at Seven Bucks Productions, explained that the filmmaking team had already decided to push the boundaries of the PG-13 rating during production and then pull back as necessary in the editing room.“We always knew that we were going to be in that situation because we knew we were going to push it, and then we knew we’re gonna have to really work to get ourselves [to a PG-13], but we wanted to maximize that PG-13 rating, just to make sure we were honoring the character.”So what put “Black Adam” over the edge?“The movie was just really violent,” Garcia explained. “The movie was just violent.
“Just kill them,” says Dwayne Johnson’s title character at on point in Black Adam, according to his co-star Mo Amer. The comedian said he was taken aback at the a departure from the honorable tough guy persona Johnson has crafted through so many other films.
Zack Sharf “Black Adam” is rated PG-13 for “sequences of strong violence, intense action and some language,” but it turns out the first several cuts of the film were even more violent. Producers Beau Flynn and Hiram Garcia confirmed to Collider that “Black Adam” originally earned an R rating and it took “four rounds” of cuts for the MPA to agree to lower the rating to the team’s desired PG-13. The crew always knew it wanted “Black Adam” to push the limits of PG-13 violence considering the title character’s comic book roots. “We really wanted to make sure that we honored the character of Black Adam,” Garcia said. “One of the things he’s known for is his aggression and violence, and to do a Black Adam movie that didn’t have that just wouldn’t have been authentic. So we always went into this knowing that we were going to push it as far as we did.”
The blockbuster, which stars Dwayne Johnson as the deadly titular antihero, has been rumored for months to possibly feature a cameo appearance of Henry Cavill as Superman or Zachary Levi as Black Adam’s heroic adversary, Shazam. Johnson stoked the flames in an interview with CinemaBlend this past week when asked if he plans to do a movie in which Black Adam fights the Man of Steel. “Absolutely.
someone in the film — one that he offered a hearty “welcome home” to.Appearing on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” on Wednesday night, Johnson didn’t give any explicit spoilers on the ending of “Black Adam,” but he sure did get close. In talking about the movie, Fallon noted that, like most superhero films, there is indeed a post-credits scene on “Black Adam.” And, according to the host, “Something happens, and people are gonna freak out.” He also teased that that freaking out would happen because “Fans have been kind of asking this for a long time.”Naturally, the assumption there is a Superman cameo.
