Black Adam full of lightning

The post-credits scene of Black Adam has leaked over a week before the film's October 21 release. We think the Rock is going to take back his thunder as Warner Bros. works on scrubbing posts.

If you haven't seen the clip in question already, you won't get a chance: posts have begun to be blocked with takedowns from Warner Bros that read, "This media has been disabled in response to a report by the copyright owner." io9 reached out to the studio for comment and will update this post if they reply.

If you want to be kept in the dark about what goes down, be sure to block all Black Adam, DC Comics, and the Rock/Dwayne Johnson-adjacent words from your devices.

Don't read ahead if you don't want to get spoiled for Black Adam's post-credit scene.

spoiler warning

The leaked scene confirms what we already knew; it was heavily teased by Johnson at San Diego Comic-Con.

The post-credits scene of DC's League of Super-Pets featured the Rock as Cosmo meeting another dog owned by Black Adam, who was voiced by the Rock.

Superman will come back at the end of Black Adam. The DCEU's Man of Steel is back and he's played by Henry Cavill. In the scene, he appears before Black Adam in a saturated color suit, emulating the hero's classic look of red, blue, and yellow. The vibe is combative as Supes comes out of a veil of smoke and tells Black Adam, "It's been a while since anyone's made the world this nervous."

We don't know if it will be called "BAvS: The Fight for the Hierarchy of Power" There will be a lot of debate over DC's cinematic future once movie audiences at large see Black Adam.
