Other big names confirmed for DC FanDome include Zack Snyder (Justice League), Margot Robbie (The Suicide Squad), Zachary Levi (Shazam!), Gal Gadot (Wonder Woman), Patty Jenkins (Wonder Woman), Scott Snyder (Batman comics), Marc Guggenheim (Arrowverse producer), Lynda Carter (Wonder Woman ’70s), Tara Strong (DC Animation icon), Minka Kelly (Titans), Matt Ryan (Constantine), Kristen Wiig (Wonder Woman 1984), Ezra Miller (The Flash), Dwayne Johnson (Black Adam), Dan Jurgens (DC Comics), Brian Michael Bendis (DC Comics), Chris Pine (Wonder Woman), and Brec Bassinger (Stargirl) – to name just small fraction of the sprawling list of guests.
It is very clear that DC and Warner Bros. are sparing no expense for DC Fandome, as the event is arguably pulling more star-power than San Diego Comic-Con and the anticipation among fans is justifiable reaching a fever pitch! DC has come back to commandeer the hype train during the chaotic shifts of 2020, and “DC FanDome is looking more and more like a culmination of that PR advancement,” according to ComicBook.com’s Kofi Outlaw!
Black Adam is currently set to hit theaters in December of 2022.
