Black Adam feels like a love child of Dwayne Johnson from the way he talks about it and the way he is hyping up the movie to fans. In recent interviews, he has also started talking about projects that are going to follow Black Adam. One thing that DJ has been focusing on a lot more is the other artists and actors working on the movie.

We have never seen The Rock go this hard with any of his other projects. He did not even hype the show based on his life, ‘Young Rock’ as much as he is doing with Black Adam. This doesn’t just give credit to the movie before its launch, but also shows that The Rock believes in it and is ready to deliver.

Dwayne Johnson claps back at the backlash from a Hollywood writer

Known for his work on Straight Outta Queens, Richie Castaldo tweeted that The Rock is putting down other movies while flexing about Black Adam. But The Rock responded in his own fashion, turned flexing in his gym terms, and gave credit to DC’s dedication to Black Adam and the future projects to come.

If you’re thinking about what sparked this sudden comment from Castaldo. The Rock tweeted appreciating the work and effort that costume designers in the movie put to bring the comics to life. While most people thought that this was Johnson appreciating the work of people who don’t get showcased, Castaldo blamed DJ for undermining Marvel movies.

During the initial phases of Marvel movies, the biggest criticism thrown their way was not showcasing comic outfits. While Marvel has rectified this, for example, the Scarlet Witch in the new Doctor Strange movie. But DC has always stuck to its iconic character’s costumes. Dwayne Johnson completely thwarted any attempt of Castaldo to bring this debate to the surface again.
