The R-rated version of “Black Adam” is quickly becoming the new Snyder Cut

Dwayne Johnson doesn’t really tend to act in R-rated films anymore, having only made two appearances in age-restricted projects in the past decade — and even back then, in 2015 imperial state was mostly released direct-to-video. However, the internet doesn’t care as the campaign is already underway to see the more brutal version of Black Adam made available to the masses.
Just last night, the team behind the upcoming DCEU blockbuster revealed that the original edit had to go through four rounds of editing with the MPAA before it was approved for a PG-13 release. So it sounds like Johnson lived up to his promise to push the envelope as far as superhumanly possible.
The actor and producer has been making the right moves both behind the scenes and in public, and since he’s hammered home his desire to give people exactly what they want, who’s to say that’s not even a reality will be? Black Adam ended what promises to be a lucrative run at the box office.
Anyhow, it’s become clear that the DCEU fandom is already desperate to see the harder edges of the titular anti-hero, whether it’s happening on the big screen, home video, or even HBO Max.
We’ve been here before, of course, with the long-running campaign for Zack Snyder’s justice league emerge that eventually pay dividends, and Johnson has already admitted that the new Warner Bros. Discovery regime is far more open to suggestion than its predecessors. Fingers crossed because if an R-Rated Black Adam exists, hopefully it won’t take five years to fall.
