Dwayne Johnson’s upcoming film ‘Black Adam’ finds itself mired in a controversy around casting inadequacies.&nbsp;

DC Extended Universe’s ‘Black Adam’ starring Dwayne Johnson as the titular antihero, is under fire by Marvel director, Mohammed Diab, for its lack of Egyptian representation.

The Egyptian filmmaker during an interview with The Direct said that the DCEU film could have done more to include the culture of his home country, especially when they were retelling the story of that land.&nbsp;

The biggest flaw he finds in the <a data-ctorig="https://www.wionews.com/topics/dwayne-johnson" data-cturl="https://www.google.com/url?client=internal-element-cse&amp;cx=006054055338965708568:09spwrlibei&amp;q=https://www.wionews.com/topics/dwayne-johnson&amp;sa=U&amp;ved=2ahUKEwin6eiJ4Nj2AhUzT2wGHf53BnkQFnoECAQQAQ&amp;usg=AOvVaw2FHj0JKJWCrYXu4WEqv19n" dir="ltr" href="https://www.wionews.com/topics/dwayne-johnson" target="_blank">Dwayne Johnson</a>&nbsp;film is that after they pick the story from Egypt, the makers have dropped it in “a fictional middle eastern country”. He finds this not to good taste and added that the makers have just tried to find an excuse with this to not hire Egyptian actors.&nbsp;

However, he adds that the comics also technically doesn’t mention Egypt with such clarity but it was always understood.&nbsp;

The filmmaker said, “I was really annoyed with DC when they set Black Adam in a fictional middle eastern country as an excuse to cast non-Egyptians, when it was obviously meant to be in Egypt. Representation opportunities shouldn’t be wasted… But it’s not a full mistake since it’s based on an iteration of the comics that doesn’t mention Egypt.”

Speaking to India Today on why he chose to work in 'Red Notice', Dwayne Johnson said, “I like the originality of the story. There’s a surprise in the movie that really caught my attention. My criteria for selecting films these days are asking two questions - am I going to love making the movie and are the people going to love the movie? 'Red Notice' checked those boxes.”

Dwayne also talked about knowing Ryan Reynolds for 20 years and having great chemistry with him. He said that things turned out to be better than he had expected with them and Gal Gadot in Red Notice.

Dwayne Johnson led ‘The Scorpion King’ is making a comeback but sans The Rock.&nbsp;

Universal is developing a reboot of the 2002 hit film.&nbsp;

The film will have screenwriter Jonathan Herman, who earned an Oscar nomination for Straight Outta Compton. It will be produced by Dwayne Johnson’s Seven Bucks Productions.

‘Scorpion King’ was a spinoff of Brendan Fraser's ‘The Mummy’ series, which saw Dwayne Johnson's Scorpion King serve as an antagonist of 2001's ‘The Mummy Returns’. Then he did a prequel story in which he led as the desert warrior Mathayus.&nbsp;

The ‘Scorpion King’ reboot will be a contemporary take not set in the distant past like the original. Johnson will not reprise his role as the titular character, but may appear in the film in another capacity.

In a statement, Dwayne Johnson said, “The Scorpion King was my very first role ever on the silver screen and I’m honored and excited to reimagine and deliver this cool mythology to a whole new generation. I wouldn’t have had the career I’m lucky enough to have had it not been for The Scorpion King and I’m thrilled that we at Seven Bucks Productions can help create those same opportunities for other hard working actors today. I believe Jonathan Herman will put in the hard work to deliver a fantastic script for our global audience.”

“The original Scorpion King was a crucial catalyst helping to catapult us into the world of film,” added Garcia. “To be able to now produce the next iteration as part of our Seven Bucks Productions slate is a special, full circle moment, a testament to what we have been fortunate enough to build for our audience and ultimately a humble reminder of the timeless value of authentic storytelling.”
