BlackAdam star Aldis Hodge teases the friendship that comes to life between his character Hawkman and Pierce Brosnan's Doctor Fate: 'There's a lot of love there. There's a real brotherhood there.'
Black Adam star Aldis Hodge, who plays Hawkman in the upcoming DCEU film, talks about how his character and Pierce Brosnan's Doctor Fate will have a friendship in the movie. After nearly a decade since he was cast as Black Adam, 2022 will finally see mega-star Dwayne Johnson join the DCEU. Initially, the Shazam! movie was going to feature Black Adam, but Johnson convinced Warner Bros. to instead let the two characters have their own respective films.
"The JSA… we are finding ourselves in camaraderie and, to a degree, finding ourselves [as a] family. With Dr. Fate [and Hawkman], that's a long, long friendship. There's a lot of love there. There's a real brotherhood there. And they're [asking] what is the right thing to do [about Black Adam]? Because Dr. Fate is sort of like a conscience for Hawkman.
