The trailer opens with a sweeping aerial view of Kahndaq, its golden sands glimmering under the sun. Black Adam (Dwayne Johnson) stands atop a crumbling temple, his cape billowing as his voiceover echoes:
“I was a god to my people. I brought them justice… but power always brings challengers.”
The scene shifts to Metropolis, where Superman (Henry Cavill) descends gracefully from the sky to a cheering crowd. Lois Lane (Amy Adams) narrates in a news clip: “The Man of Steel has returned to ensure peace. But what happens when peace meets unstoppable force?”
The calm is shattered by a devastating explosion in Kahndaq. Civilians flee as mysterious figures in armored suits wreak havoc. Black Adam arrives, obliterating the attackers with lightning strikes, but his expression darkens as he discovers a familiar symbol left behind: the crest of LexCorp.
Cut to Lex Luthor (Jesse Eisenberg) watching from a high-tech command center. “The world doesn’t need gods,” he sneers. “It needs balance.”
The trailer pivots to Superman confronting Black Adam in a war-torn desert. “Your methods are too brutal,” Superman warns. “You don’t rule. You terrorize.” Black Adam smirks, responding, “And you don’t understand what it takes to protect a nation.”
Explosive montages follow:
- Black Adam unleashing massive lightning storms in battle.
- Superman flying through Kahndaq’s defenses, dodging electric blasts.
- Amanda Waller (Viola Davis) appearing via hologram: “If these two collide, the world won’t survive.”
The stakes rise as a greater threat emerges: Brainiac (introduced as the film’s secret antagonist). His ship looms over Earth, forcing Black Adam and Superman to set aside their differences to prevent annihilation.
The final moments tease their uneasy alliance. Black Adam growls, “We’re not allies, Kryptonian.” Superman replies, “But we’ll save this world… together.”
The trailer ends with the title card:
Black Adam 2: Black Adam v Superman
