Plot Synopsis

Here is what Dwayne Johnson had to say about the backstory and plot of Black Adam at the 2020 DC FanDome:

Five thousand years ago, Kahndaq was a melting pot of cultures, wealth, power and magic. But most of us had nothing, except for the chains around our necks. Kahndaq needed a hero… instead, they got me. I did what needed to be done, and they imprisoned me for it. Now, five thousand years later, I am free. And I give you my word: no one will ever stop me again.
