According to Deadline, Black Adam has added Young Rock's Uli Latukefu in an undisclosed role, reuniting with Dwayne Johnson after portraying the global star during his football era on the NBC series. Despite the lack of information, fans can probably guess what the mystery role entails.

Latukefu joins the jam-packed cast as the latest DC superhero film undergoes principal photography in Atlanta, Georgia as we speak. The long-gestating project is finally coming to fruition, but much of its plot remains under wraps while the production continues to expand its ensemble crew. It’s highly possible Latukefu is playing a younger version of Johnson’s Teth-Adam. Regardless, Black Adam is shaping up to be one of the biggest films from Johnson yet.

Sarah Shahi is set as freedom fighter Adrianna Tomaz, while it’s theorized that James Cusati-Moyer will play her brother, Amon.
