In line with the WWE Legend's announcement, Warner Bros. also unveiled a fresh new teaser for Black Adam that highlights its Hall H panel: 

In a previous report, The Hollywood Reporter shared that 

the plans of Warner Bros.' theatrical division for the event were still unclear. The outlet also revealed that 2023 DC movies, such as The Flash and Blue Beetle, will reportedly not have panels since they are considered "too far out" to have a "meaningful" impact.

Meanwhile, Fandango's Erik Davis speculated that Black Adam isn't the lone presentation of DC in Hall H: 

"JUST IN: WB is bringing DC to #SDCC! So far #BlackAdam is confirmed to be there for the Saturday panel... but I suspect that's not all. And you know The Rock is gonna go BIG inside Hall H."

Given this confirmation, it looks like DC will push through with its Hall H presentation, meaning that other films on the studio's slate could join Black Adam in the event. 

When replying to a fan, Davis added that it makes sense for DC to bring more, pointing out that new footage from Black Adam, Shazam! Fury of the Gods, Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, and The Flash were unveiled during CinemaCon: 

"I don't know for sure, but it would make sense for them to bring some stuff. At CinemaCon, we saw new footage from Black Adam, Shazam, Aquaman 2, and The Flash."
