Warner Bros. also unveiled its upcoming \"Black Adam\" with the help of the character's alter ego himself.

While Johnson said the film just started post-production, he lobbied director Jaume Collet-Serra -- whom he worked with on \"Jungle Cruise\" -- to present fans with the scene where Black Adam is revealed.

The \"Black Adam\" teaser featured cast members introducing their characters: Aldis Hodge plays Hawkman, Quintessa Swindell plays Cyclone, Noah Centineo plays Atom Smasher and Pierce Brosnan, who went from James Bond to \"silver fox,\" plays Doctor Fate.

The snippet shows explorers coming upon an ancient site and eventually releasing the god-like figure. A gunman approaches him, and Black Adam picks him up by his throat and electrocutes him into dust. As you might imagine, the victim's heavily armed comrades also prove no match.

\"Black Adam\" opens July 29, 2022.

Other content included a sneak peek of a time-shifting \"The Flash,\" which is in production. The film stars Ezra Miller and the first look teased the return of Michael Keaton as Batman.

Jason Momoa even gave fans a look at the upcoming sequel to 2018's \"Aquaman.\" The film, titled \"Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom\" and from returning director James Wan, hits theaters Dec. 16, 2022.

There was also an extended trailer for \"Peacemaker,\" starring John Cena reprising his role from writer-director James Gunn's \"The Suicide Squad.\" The spin-off series hits HBO Max on Jan. 13, 2022. (The \"Peacemaker\" trailer features adult language.)
