Having been unveiled during the San-Diego Comic-Con trailer, Dwayne Johnson has taken to Twitter to give us a better look at Pierce Brosnan’s Doctor Fate from the forthcoming DC blockbuster Black Adam. Check out the brand new character poster here…
Bond actor Brosnan will portray both Doctor Fate and Kent Nelson, the archaeologist who unearths an ancient god who trains him to become a powerful sorcerer and founding member of the Justice Society of America. Armed with his Helmet of Fate and magical capabilities, Doctor Fate is able to conjure up enough power to outmatch even that of the gods.
