Rumours were rife that Ryan Reynolds has been cast as Hawkman in Black Adam.

Last year, Dwayne Johnson had shared a key detail about Black Adam revealing that the Justice Society of America will be involved in the storyline. Recently, it was confirmed that Noah Centineo has been cast as Atom Smasher while other rumoured members to be added include Hawkman, Hawkgirl, Stargirl and Doctor Fate. Recent speculation suggested that Ryan Reynolds could be starring as Hawkman alongside The Rock but the Deadpool actor was swift to dismiss the rumour in the most 'Ryan Reynolds' way possible.

"I’m not playing Hawkman in Black Adam. Although I generally do whatever the hell @TheRock tells me to do. I would however love to be in Zack Snyder’s Justice League movie and I’ve heard I may already be in it? #SnyderCut," Reynolds quipped on Twitter while also mentioning the Snyder Cut of Justice League. Not being able to keep himself away from the narrative, Johnson hilariously poked fun at his Red Notice co-star's expense as he brought up Green Lantern and his frenemy Kevin Hart to the mix.

"You ARE playing Hawkman and that’s that. You’re also Deadpool, Green Lantern (when you want because you own the intellectual property), you’re in the Zack Snyder JL movie and you’re also @KevinHart4real’s dad. Like in real life, as per your blood test," Dwayne tweeted back.

Moreover, Ryan shared a hilarious secret Reynolds Cut of Green Lantern which had fans laughing out loud. "Here’s the secret Reynolds Cut of GL you all haven’t been waiting for. In order to make it as great as possible we made some judicious cuts," the 43-year-old actor tweeted.
