From Bond to Fate, Pierce Brosnan has joined DC‘s Black Adam as the classic superhero Dr. Fate. Dwayne Johnson stars as the antihero, Black Adam.

Brosnan plays Kent Nelson, aka Dr. Fate, who is given the magical Helmet of Fate and taught sorcery skills. The character was created by Garder Fox and Howard Sherman and first appeared in 1940’s More Fun Comics #5.

Brosnan completes the key cast for the film which includes the debut of the Justice Society. Already cast is Aldis Hodge as Hawkman, Noah Centineo as Atom Smasher, and Quintessa Swindell as Cyclone. Marwan Kenzari has been cast in an unknown role.
