Noah Centineo will be sharing screen space with Dwayne Johnson in the upcoming DC Comics adaptation — Black Adam.
As per a Variety report, Centineo will be take up the role of DC comics character Albert Rothstein aka Atom Smasher, a meta-human who has the ability to manipulate his molecular structure which gives him the power to grow in size and even move through objects.
Black Adam and Atom Smasher don’t get along in the comics, so this definitely points towards an intense battle that will go down between Johnson and Centineo. Black Adam is the introductory film for the character, who will eventually go out and battle Shazam in future DC movies. So this could mean that Black Adam might just put an end to Atom Smasher which ends up leading him to Shazam.
Black Adam is slated to hit cinemas on December 22, 2021,
