‘What more could I ask for?’ says Pierce Brosnan on superhero role in ‘Black Adam’

ORLANDO, Fla. — Veteran actor Pierce Brosnan has seemingly done it all, from his iconic portrayal of thief and con man Remmington Steele in the ‘80s to embodying 007 in the ‘90s, and more recently belting out ABBA tunes alongside Meryl Streep in the “Mamma Mia” films.

However, one role that has eluded him in his storied career has been that of a superhero, something that will finally be rectified with the release of “Black Adam” later this month. In this film, Brosnan takes on the role of sorcerer and visionary Doctor Fate, a character who first appeared in the 1940s and went on to become a part of the superhero supergroup the Justice Society of America, a precursor to the Justice League.

Brosnan couldn’t have been more excited to take on this pivotal role, as says he had been waiting a long time for the right superhero role to come along.
