The studio revealed no information about the upcoming ‘The Flash’ and the ‘Aquaman’ sequel
Warner Bros dropped new trailers of its much-awaited titles Black Adam and Shazam! Fury of the Gods as it returned to San Diego Comic-Con for the 2022 edition.
The studio stuck to its 2022 titles during the presentation and revealed no information about the upcoming The Flash and Aquaman sequel which features controversial stars Ezra Miller and Amber Heard, respectively.
For Black Adam, lead star Dwayne Johnson brought a new trailer for the DC Comics film, directed by Jaume Collet-Serra.
The actor, who showed up in costume, was joined by the director as well as cast members Aldis Hodge (Hawkman), Noah Centineo (Atom Smasher) and Quintessa Swindell (Cyclone) during the film's presentation. At one point, Johnson raised eyebrows after an audience member asked Johnson about how Black Adam would fare against Superman.
The actor replied, "It probably all depends on who's playing Superman", a remark that added to the uncertainty over Hollywood star Henry Cavill's stint as the man of steel in the DC Extended Universe (DCEU).
Black Adam is scheduled to be released in theatres on October 21.
The team of Shazam! Fury of the Gods -- Zachary Levi, Asher Angel, Jack Dylan Grazer, Lucy Liu and director David F Sandberg -- showcased the film's official trailer during their presentation.

The Kochi Biennale is evolving, better, I love it. There have been problems in the past but they it seems to have been ironed out. For me, the atmosphere, the fact of getting younger artists doing work, showing them, getting the involvement of the local people… it is the biggest asset, the People’s Biennale part of it. This Biennale has a great atmosphere and It is a feeling of having succeeded, everybody is feeling a sense of achievement… so that’s it is quite good!
