The Rock Johnson is shamelessly jockeying for an MCU role. I'm not mad but it's hilarious.

He might make a decent rhinoAint really a good role for the rock in the MCU, unless they give him some obscure character like Gladiator.
can't picture him as one of the main x-men or FF4 characters. but hes not one to take a supporting role either, so he would essentially be in the same position as he was with black adam, headlining a d list character and the movie flopping.
Or juggernaut if the go with black professor x like the rumors are saying

Would make sense to make Atlanteans Samoan or Pacific Islander......but Sea Mexicans

Cac nerds were pushing for him to be a side character in that cac superhero franchise Shazam which is for kids and he said f that.
And rightfully so and he decided to push for his own film: Black Adam because he wanted to be the main star. Which enraged the cacs because they want Black comicbook characters to only be sidekicks.
technically they were still atlanteans, just a mexican actor was cast in the role. spidermans actor isn't really from queens either, people just playing make believe

I can't speak to what cac comic book nerds wanted. He did what he wanted to do and this is the outcome.Cac nerds were pushing for him to be a side character in that cac superhero franchise Shazam which is for kids and he said f that.

They literally changed Namor origin story to mix with Mexicans tho.
I can see The Rock being Namor but he gotta get better acting skills tho.
So now you're a cac if you think Black Adam should have been tied to Shazam, which is intrinsically tied to the character?Cac nerds were pushing for him to be a side character in that cac superhero franchise Shazam which is for kids and he said f that.

Black Panther, Black Adam, Marvel, DC, films in general just an unapologetically dumb mf with terrible takes. It's like a TLR cosplay with down syndrome, just can't get it right.
This dude always talks like he's too good for his guardians role. The gamorra actress makes similiar comments too.
Don't think this was meant to be shade to the rock, but rather shade to comicbook movies in general.

Damn. He overplayed his hand. It's a shame. He poisoned the "Black Adam" name/brand at least where movies are concerned. I wanted to see WW3 on screen one day too. I doubt that would have happened anyway, though. Oh well.The dude is a real ass if this is true
