Dwayne Johnson, traditionally known as The Rock, is making headlines once again--but not for anything personal, this time.
He has come out to celebrate his casting as Black Adam, a traditional villain who will be shown as an anti-hero in an upcoming DC film.
Johnson got quite emotional on Instagram.
In fact, it can be argued that now, he's even more recognizable as an actor!
So now that he's DC's Black Adam, he made quite the emotional post on Instagram.
"The Man in Black ⚡️Like most kids growing up, I dreamed about being a superhero. Having cool superpowers, fighting for what’s right and always protecting the people."
"It all changed for me, when I was 10yrs old and was first introduced to the greatest superhero of all time - SUPERMAN."
"I was too rebellious. Too rambunctious. Too resistant to convention and authority. Despite my troubles, I was still a good kid with a good heart - I just liked to do things my way."
"Now, years later as a man, with the same DNA I had as a kid - my superhero dreams have come true. I’m honored to join the iconic #DCUniverse and it’s a true pleasure to become, BLACK ADAM."
"He’s a rebellious, one of a kind superhero, who’ll always do what’s right for the people - but he does it his way. Truth and justice - the BLACK ADAM way."
"This role is unlike any other I’ve ever played in my career and I’m grateful to the bone we’ll all go on this journey together."
I can't wait to see him in the part!
