Pierce Brosnan talks Doctor Fate and the Justice Society of America in Black Adam
By Matt Maytum published about 23 hours ago Exclusive: The former Bond star talks to Total Film about his Black Adam character
The Justice Society of America are DC’s oldest superteam, predating the Justice League by 20 years with a 1940 debut, though they’re only now coming to the screen. That team is led by one of its founding members, Kent Nelson, AKA Doctor Fate, played here by Pierce Brosnan. sporting a shiny alien helmet, and can use magic, as well as having the ability to look into the future.
"I am the elder of the group," former Bond star Brosnan tells Total Film in the new issue (opens in new tab) of the magazine, which features Black Adam on the cover. "I’m assured he’s one of the oldest characters in the pantheon of comic-book characters. He’s an archaeologist."
"He has powers to foresee the future, and raise the dead, and teleport, while wearing a gold helmet," he continues. Is the helmet essential to unleashing the powers? "Absolutely, yes. It’s a blessing and a curse. It’s almost like a drug addiction in some respects. It takes a lot of energy to wear the helmet. It was a very beautifully designed outfit and helmet, which I’m quite fond of. Jaume Collet-Serra is very inclusive in the collaboration. He was wonderful in the sense that he would send me designs of the helmet, so I could participate in the look of it."

There has been a rumor on and off that Dr. Fate does not survive the Black Adam movie. The quote below could mean Dr. Fate does indeed die during the film, or Brosnan has already gotten the vibe that despite what Dwayne Johnson wants the focus will not shift from the Justice League (Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman) to the Justice Society.

I hate that this is thumbnail, but this is perhaps the most detailed version of the Dr. Fate costume. There are lots of copies of this poster floating around Twitter and Instagram. Dr. Fate CostumeThe helmet appears to be jeweled or textured or both, and I believe there is symbolic writing on the tights. Given that Pierce can put definition on his arms when he wants, I think this might be him, and not CGI. -- Barbara

Well let's hope PB has 3 good scenes in Black Adam and really hope he's in whatever sequel happens. The DC franchise is so chaotic and The Rock sucks all the air from any conversation about DC and Black Adam so the future is unpredictable. BUT PB was well compensated for his Dr. Fate role. Let's hope he has $ on the back end as well. And he knows that nothing is certain going forward. www.showbizgalore.com/black-adam-cast-and-their-salary/

The Rock should not be making over ten million for this, and Brosnan should not be making under ten million, unless Brosnan is getting some nice change on the back end, as they say.
Alas, the Warner / Discovery merger is a mess and unless Black Adam does gang busters, anything else planned can join Batgirl on the dumpster fire.

Barbara - what is PB's going rate? $'s up front with a %? CAA still reps him.

I have no idea what his going rate is, but for this film he was paid two million dollars, which I think is too low. This makes be think on the back end, he is going to get a cut of the profits and Dr. Fate merchandise.

Good evening and welcome to tonight's edition of lo and behold: On Thursday a Brazilian fan announced that there would be a BLACK ADAM reveal at the Rock in Rio festival. On Friday Pierce announces he is traveling. Coincidence? Me thinks not. Attachments:

The schedule for The Rock in Rio Gameplay Arena: September 3, the program starts at 2:30 pm with an exclusive panel from the movie “Black Adam”. It will be interesting to see who the panelists are.
I thought Rock in Rio was still limited to music of all genres but it's expanded to include entertainment of all types - film, gaming, and sports.

Black Adam PanelSo according to the link above, they got to see two new trailers, plus the post credit scene from Superpets where DJ voices Kypto, Superman's Dog, Black Adam, and Annubis, Black Adam's dog. Yes, yes, Dwayne. Keep stroking. Just remember, Brosnan 5:16 says he will kick your ass.* -- Barbara *five points to the person who gets my reference.

Black Adam Cast Gush Over Pierce Brosnan as Doctor Fate By Jamie Jirak - September 8, 2022 08:02 pm EDT
Black Adam is the next DCEU film bound for theatres, and it's set to have a star-studded cast. In addition to Dwayne Johnson AKA The Rock in the titular role, the movie will also feature Aldis Hodge as Hawkman, Noah Centineo as Atom Smasher, Quintessa Swindell as Cyclone, Sarah Shahi as Adrianna Tomaz, and Pierce Brosnan as Doctor Fate/Kent Nelson. Recently, Johnson shared a new poster of Brosnan in the role, and a new trailer event for the movie featured the cast praising the James Bond alum.
"He is legendary. Pierce Brosnan is everything you want him to be and more. And would show up to set and be like, 'Sarah,' he'd go, 'Love. Love, pass the salt. Love," Shahi shared. "He threw a big, what holiday was it? Labor, I don't know, 4th of July? Was that what it was? One of those summer holidays? I had my kids with us when we were filming, and he was so allowing of these three little assholes to come up to him. And my twins were putting their hands all throughout his hair, were farting on him, doing things. And Pierce loved it, was just wonderful. I mean, I'm telling you, I can't say enough good things about that man. He's incredible. Incredible."
Mohammed Amer added, "He's one of those, it's one of those people that you just absolutely look forward to when you find out you'll be working with him. The first scene that he started off within the movie, it happened to be a scene together. I was so excited I forgot to look at my sides."
Hodge continued, "Say it like this, I think Pierce was the last person that, I think, we all found out about in casting. Because I remember getting down to Atlanta, talking to Jaume. I'm like, 'All right, so who's Dr. Fate?' He's like, 'We're talking to somebody.' 'All right, cool. But who is he?' You trying to run through how many actors... and then they finally let us know. They're like, 'It's Pierce Brosnan.' You're like, 'Oh man.'" He added, "He really is just, I mean, salt of the earth. Really, the best. The Best. And the thing is, he was excited about this too. Equally excited, if not more excited."
"The thing I remember most candidly is a conversation we had when we got on the ship. You all saw a ship. In the trailers, it's there," Hodge added. "But we got on the ship and I was just looking at everything. I'm looking at this brother and he's just, 'Oh, look at this. This is cool. This is cool.' And I'm like, 'Bro, you are 007.' And I was talking to him about how to maintain the joy because I'm like, 'You've been through so much and you're still excited. How do you do that?' Because I want to be able to maintain that and not get jaded through the process. So we had a great conversation about wonderment and being able to keep your joy and maintaining just your sense [of gratitude]. And he's just that gracious kind of brother. So honestly, I mean, we can do 50 of these with Pierce."
In a recent interview with Total Film (via GamesRadar), Brosnan spoke about the character being the "elder" of the DC characters, and called Nelson's relationship to the ancient helmet of Nabu "almost like a drug addiction."
"I am the elder of the group," Brosnan explained. "I'm assured he's one of the oldest characters in the pantheon of comic-book characters. He's an archaeologist." He added, "He has powers to foresee the future and raise the dead, and teleport while wearing a gold helmet ... Absolutely, yes [the helmet is essential]. It's a blessing and a curse. It's almost like a drug addiction in some respects. It takes a lot of energy to wear the helmet. It was a very beautifully designed outfit and helmet, which I'm quite fond of. Jaume Collet-Serra is very inclusive in the collaboration. He was wonderful in the sense that he would send me designs of the helmet, so I could participate in the look of it." 2comments
Black Adam is currently scheduled to hit theatres on October 21st.
