As per Deadline, the reports of the failure of 'Black Adam' are false and the film will also earn moolah from the merchandise. Johnson concurred, sharing the report on Twitter and writing, "Waited to confirm with financiers before I shared this excellent #BlackAdam news - our film will PROFIT between $52M-$72M. Fact. At almost $400M worldwide we are building our new franchise step by step (first Captain America did $370M) for the DC future."</p>

'Black Adam' a box office success, claims new report. Dwayne Johnson says 'excellent news'

<p>While Dwayne Johnson may have made a grant entry to superhero movies by headlining <strong><a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/hollywood/news-black-adam-post-credit-scene-explained-heres-what-it-means-for-dceus-future-527396">DC's 'Black Adam'</a></strong>, it appears Warner Bros, the studio behind the project, is going to lose up to $100 million. The news was reported by Variety. As per Box Office Mojo, the film has grossed $384.6 million on a reported budget of $195 million. However, that budget does not include marketing and production costs which are around $80 and $100 million. Add to that the cut of theatres, and the film is apparently going to lose a big amount of money to WB. Johnson did change the hierarchy of power in DC Universe, but he clearly could not use his immense star power to make the film a success.</p>
