Ironically Johnson's statement came less than an hour after publishing this.

‘Black Adam 2’ Not Moving Forward as Part of New DC’s “First Chapter”

 

 

Quote

However, Adam disappointed at the box office with $391 million globally and earned poor reviews. That wouldn’t necessarily be a problem to launch a sequel if not for several factors. One, the movie was inordinately expensive. Greenlit at $190 million, the movie’s costs ballooned to the $260 million mark, according to sources, especially after a costly 20-day round of reshoots undertaken after a poor test screening. That does not include marketing costs.

Sorry, somehow missed it.

Have to admit that I didn't expect D. Johnson to publicly capitulate that quickly.... Gunn/Safran must be laying down the law in meetings!  To humble The Rock is something quite impressive!  But of course...audiences had a significant hand in all this, by not buying into the movie!

He has paid his dues to the Queen. Give him some slack.

To the surprise of no one, this will now rot in the pile of failed Rock tentpoles in which Baywatch, Rampage and San Andreas also lie. Here's to hoping Gunn's regime does the character actual justice whenever they get around to the Shazam lore.

San Andreas was a failed tentpole???

Rock lies very much,  stopped liking him for while and the press for this was disaster

Including the marketing, I think.

"Not moving forward as part of the first chapter."

 

OR ANY CHAPTER, right?

I think Gunn is a giant douche, but he was right to cancel BA. It was a flop, no two ways about it. Couldn't even hit 400m WW.

I thought there was going to be a sequel, but don't hold me to that.
