The trailer hints that Black Adam is given a chance to fight for the planet alongside others, however, Adam said that he doesn't kneel to others.

Producer Hiram Garcia, talked about the trailer during the launch and said, "There are a couple of things we wanted to convey [with that trailer]. One, that the movie's fun. The movie's big. Two, I think that when you see Black Adam, you realize that we're honouring the comic book version of Black Adam. He doesn't pull his punches. He can be judge, jury, and executioner. And his approach to how he does things is very much opposite of what typical heroes would do."
