-===== Headline =====
+===== Shazam =====
+In the early 2000s, New Line Cinema began work on a Shazam! feature picture based on the DC Comics superhero Captain Marvel. Because DC was unable to use the term Captain Marvel owing to rights difficulties, the title originated from the wizard Shazam, who grants the hero his abilities. Peter Segal agreed to helm the picture in April 2006, and Dwayne Johnson was recruited later that year to play Captain Marvel.[([[https://shazam.fandom.com/wiki/Shazam|shazam]])]
+===== Developing Shazam For Black Adam =====
+By November 2007, Johnson had shown interest in playing the film's antagonist, Black Adam, and had gotten encouraging feedback from fans. By January 2009, the film's development had been halted. By April 2014, Warner Bros. (New Line's parent company) and DC were developing a slate of superhero films for their shared world, the DC Extended Universe (DCEU). Johnson stated in August that he was still connected to the picture but had not chosen whether he would portray Captain Marvel or Black Adam. Johnson stated a month later that he will play Black Adam.[([[https://warnerbros.fandom.com/wiki/Black_Adam|warnerbros]])]
+===== Separating Shazam And Black Adam =====
+Johnson met with DC's Geoff Johns in January 2017 to discuss the project after studio execs were worried that an actor of Johnson's caliber was being utilized as a villain and supporting role in the picture rather than starring in it. Following that discussion, they agreed to break the project into two films: Shazam! (2019), featuring Captain Marvel, who DC had renamed as Shazam, and Black Adam, starring Johnson as the title antihero.[([[https://www.slashfilm.com/1060393/an-exhaustive-timeline-of-the-rocks-black-adam-movie/|slashfilm]])]

+===== Suicide Squad =====

The Suicide Squad members were supposed to be chasing a weapon of mass devastation, which would be revealed as Black Adam in a minor role for Johnson. When O'Connor exited that picture in 2018, these preparations were abandoned.[([[https://www.thewrap.com/suicide-squad-2-the-rock-black-adam-exclusive/|thewrap]])]
+===== Hiram Garcia =====
+Hiram Garcia stated at the time that giving Shazam and Black Adam their own films allowed for the best movie for each character to be developed. He also stated that their portrayal of Black Adam would not be "softened up for audiences," explaining that he is "not the boy scout superhero, he's the guy that's like, okay, you cross him?
