IsBlack Adama Part of SnyderVerse?
In an interview with Tyrone Magnus, Zack Snyder commented on the possibility ofBlack Adambeing a part of his SnyderVerse. Even though the interview took place about a year ago, the statement is still quite relevant today.
“Yeah, I mean I think he could fit in the world, so it is interesting. In the Flash movie, you are going to see my Batman, and…I don’t know.”
However, withDwayne Johnsonclaiming thatBlack Adamis a “new era for DC films,”it is quite possible that the movie is focusing on its’ own story, instead of relying on any other previous movies. The upcoming DCEU movies are leaning more towards telling their own stories in the universe.
WhetherBlack Adamis a part of SnyderVerse or not is neither confirmed nor denied. However,Black Adamfans believe that movie-goers just want to have a good time at the theatre and not worry about what goes on behind the curtain. They expect Zack Snyder fans to not judge or criticize the movie before it has been released and that everyone working on the project should be respected including the actors and the directors.
Black Adamis set to release in theatres on August 17, 2025.
