Black Adam has grossed over $350 million worldwide, marking a definite shift in the hierarchy of power in the DC Universe. Black Adam introduces the titular anti-hero and the Justice Society of America, while also bringing Henry Cavill's Superman back into the fold. Black Adam features some of the most brutal action sequences in the DC Universe, with the anti-hero literally tearing an enemy in half.
The iconic action sequences in Black Adam were designed by industry veteran Chris Brewster. Brewster has had a hand in countless superhero action sequences while working on Netflix's Daredevil, Ant-Man And The Wasp, Loki, and many more DC and Marvel projects. Brewster has an impressive understanding of action sequences and stunt work from his work as a stunt performer, stunt double, fight choreographer, and stunt coordinator. Brewster's work on Black Adam brings the action and storytelling to a new level, with each fighting style uniquely tailored to fit the character that uses it.
Screen Rant spoke with Brewster about designing the brutal and dynamic action in Black Adam. He explains how each character's fighting style further develops their story, how hard Aldis Hodge trained to be able to fight like Hawkman, and which was the hardest action sequence to put together. Brewster also breaks down the difference in fighting style between Marvel's street-level hero Daredevil and the veteran Avenger Captain America.
