While saying this, Johnson emphasizes “On this planet,” especially. It clearly hints towards Superman, who is from Krypton and not from Earth. 

In his statement, he also mentions the third act. This mention can hint that Superman would appear in the third or final act of the film. The third act remark may have confirmed that Henry Cavill may not have a lot of screen time and would be a cameo, probably in the end credit scene of the movie.

Black Adam is an Anti-Hero, Not a Villain in the Movie

Ever since its announcement, Black Adam is described as an anti-hero, instead of an antagonist or a villain. The whole reason behind having a solo movie for the character was to portray him as an anti-hero. If the character had first appeared in the 2019 Shazam!, he would have been portrayed as a villain.

Later, with the release of the toy line, Sabbac was revealed as the major villain of the movie. In comics, Sabbac is an enemy of Captain Marvel, aka Shazam. He can access his demonic superpowers of hell by saying his name, which gives him the strength of satan.

With the release of the toy line, the third act of the movie might have been revealed. The data file of toy Sabbac revealed his name to be Ishmael Gregor. It further says, “Possessed by a demon, a military intergang leader transforms into Sabbac, the only being whose powers are equal to those of Black Adam.”

The description further explains that he is determined to take over Kahndaq and maybe the whole world, and he must be stopped. It also says that Black Adam may need the help of some unlikely allies to defeat him.

With the trailer, it can be assumed that these unlikely allies would be the Justice Society America. It may fit to establish him as an anti-hero, instead of a villain. The final act of the movie can be followed by a credit scene with Black Adam and Superman. 

According to fan theories, Black Adam will come face-to-face with Superman after he is released to the world. Whether Henry Cavill has a cameo in the upcoming movie or not will be revealed soon, and fans are excited to see him as Superman once again.
