The more well-known Red Tornado was created decades later and is an android with wind-related powers. Cyclone has wind and sound-generating powers.
Jaume Collet-Serra is directing “Black Adam” with plot details currently under wraps.
While the plot for
Black Adam remains mostly unknown at this point, Johnson did reveal during DC FanDome that the film s Justice Society will include founders (in the comics, at least) Hawkman (Aldis Hodge) and Doctor Fate, as well as latecomers Atom Smasher (Noah Centineo) and Cyclone.

Those looking forward to four hours of
Zack Snyder s Justice League could perhaps get a chance to see it in theaters, as long as they’re over 17.
