* RaceLift: Hawkman and Cyclone are Caucasian in the comics, but will be played by actors of African descent. Atom Smasher is a downplayed example, as his actor is half Italian with Native American and Puerto Rican ancestry.
* RememberTheNewGuy: Apparently, the Justice Society was already established and has probably been around as the same time as the Justice League. Amanda Waller even knows them, and called to deal with Black Adam.

* RaceLift: She's white in the comics. Here, she's bi-racial.

->''"My vision has shown me the future. You have two choices: you can either be the destroyer of this world, or you can be its saviour. It's up to you."''

* FourElementEnsemble:
** Hawkman is the '''Fire''': Short-tempered and his armory is comprised of a metal that can turn liquid at will.
** Doctor Fate is the '''Water''': Takes a relaxed approach, wears lots of blue and his powers manifest as translucent ripples and reflections.
** Cyclone is the '''Wind''': Aside from her signature power, she's high energy and her attire consists of a billowy gown with hair that's either stylishly tousled or puffed out.
** Atom Smasher is the '''Earth''': He's the only one who can't fly and his power gives him incredible durability.

* RememberTheNewGuy: Hawkman has been operating for years after the Disbanding of the Justice Society and is in contact with Amanda Waller, but apparently she never sent him to deal with [[Film/ManOfSteel the battle of Metropolis]], [[Film/BatmanVSupermanDawnOfJustice the battle against Doomsday]], [[Film/SuicideSquad2016 the Midway City crisis]], [[Film/TheSuicideSquad Corto Maltese]], or [[Film/Shazam2019 the rampage of the Seven Deadly Sins]]. Justified for any Task Force X missions, as those missions aren't the sort she'd want a superhero learning about.

* BadassBaritone: Appropros for the Society's leader, Hawkman has a deep, commanding voice.

* TokenWizard: The only memeber of the Society whose powers are based on magic rather than science.

-->''"Teth-Adam, I know you can hear me. The battle your son was meant to fight is upon us. Now you are the only one who can defeat the demon Champion. You have the power to be the destroyer of this world, but you can also be its saviour. You believe you are not a worthy champion, because the wizards did not choose you, but Fate does not make mistakes. We were wrong about you. The world doesn't always need a white knight. Don't you dare give up on us now. The world needs you."''

** He taunts a 4-eyed demon by saying it took its eye off the ball.

* DeathByIrony: A strong believer of fate, [[spoiler: he eventually pulls a ScrewDestiny move through sacrificing his life to save his friends and world]].

* GentlemanWizard: Very much so. He's dapper and debonair, belongs to a sacred order and handles every crisis with a stiff upper lip and a dry wit.
* GoldColoredSuperiority: The Helmet of Fate - along with Dr Fate's cape, gloves and boots - are a brilliant gold.

* AdaptationalBadass: Reincarnation aside, Hawkman relies pretty exclusively on exotic weaponry but in terms of physical power he is quite mid-tier within the DC Universe. In ''Black Adam'', he trades blows one-on-one with Black Adam, and while clearly the weaker of the two, he still puts up a half-decent fight against a Superman-level opponent who he normally would not be able to confront in such a way.

** Hawkman's no kill policy doesn't keep him from taking jobs from Amanda Waller, who has killed her own staff and sends convicts to almost certain death to exterminate greater threats.

* SuperToughness: Atom Smasher's maximum size can withstand bullets. The only thing shown to harm him in this form is a jaw punch from Black Adam.

* {{Adapted Out}}: All references to Hawkman's reincarnation and former life as the Egyptian Prince Khufu go unmentioned despite some iterations portray Prince Khufu and Teth-Adam as friends, rivals or enemies.

* TheChick: The sole female member on the team and a potential love interest to Atom Smasher.

* RaceLift: She's white in the comics. Here, she's bi-racial. She nevertheless gets to keep her red hair, unlike most other such characters undergoing this in adaptations.

** Hawkman also uses weapons like maces and battle-axes, which cause fatal or near-fatal injuries if they make contact.

* NotAfraidToDie: When told by Kent that he dies in the BadFuture the Helmet shows him, Carter remarks that death doesn't scare him.

* AdaptationalBadass: Reincarnation aside, Hawkman relies pretty exclusively on exotic weaponry but in terms of physical power he is quite mid-tier within the DC Universe. In this film he trades blows one-on-one with Black Adam, who is clearly restraining himself but is still a Superman-level opponent who he normally would not be able to confront in such a way.

* {{Adapted Out}}: All references to Hawkman's reincarnation and former life as the Egyptian Prince Khufu go unmentioned despite some iterations portray Prince Khufu and Teth-Adam as friends, rivals or enemies.

* FlungClothing: Carter leaps out of his jet's cockpit wearing regular cltohes, which shred in mid-air and are instantly replaced by his armor.

* ThouShaltNotKill: Hawkman chastises Black Adam for killing his enemies, which he deems unheroic. Black Adam doesn't care for labels though.
** In his own comic, we see that Hawkman's no-kill policy doesn't prevent him from vanquishing undead foes like Gentleman Ghost by way of stabbing him in the chest with a shard of Eternium. [[spoiler: It seems like he'd try the same with the resurrected SABBAC when he impaled him, but it turns out that Hawkman was using an illusion cast by the Helmet of Fate to distrct his enemy.]]

* AdaptationalBadass: Somewhat; though ultimately her powers and capabilities are the same, the comics Maxine had issues with freezing up in combat or get distracted by talking about her latest interest, and could sometimes be unreliable as a result. The film excises her insecurities and AmbiguousDisorder so these issues never come up, and she's considerably more reliable than Atom Smasher.

* AdaptationalSeriousness: Downplayed but definitely apparent. In the comics, Cyclone is an awkward and talkative MotorMouth with AmbiguousDisorder issues (canonically she has atypical depression, but she demonstrates traits of autism and ADHD) relating to her NoSocialSkills and encyclopedic knowledge of her interests. Other than being smart and nonchalant about her disturbing origin, none of this is in the film, with Atom Smasher instead taking the primary role of being the "funny one" in the group.

* IronicDeath: A strong believer of fate, [[spoiler: he eventually pulls a ScrewDestiny move through sacrificing his life to save his friends and world]].

* AnAxeToGrind: Hawkman's mace can transform into a battleaxe.

!!! '''Species:'''Human

Kent Nelson is magic practitioner who gains his powers from a mystical helmet, entrusted to him by an otherworldly entity known as Nabu. He is also one of the founding members of the Justice Society.

* IronicDeath: A strong believer of fate, [[spoiler: he eventually pulls a ScrewDestiny move through sacrificing his life to save his friends and world.]]

* MasterOfIllusion: When Doctor Fate first goes up against Black Adam, he casts an illusion that makes modern Kahndaq appear to revert back to Ancient kahndaq, disorienting Black Adam long enough to give Hawkman an opening.

* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Generally a calm and composed character, when he first spots SABBAC he yells at Hawkman to get their plane down as fast as possible.

* AdaptationalModesty: In the comics Cyclone's costume bares her shoulders and part of her upper torso. She also often wears short shorts, but also long socks that show some of her legs in the middle. Infamously, some art makes it seem like [[VaporWear she's wearing nothing at all under her dress]]. In the movie, her costume covers her shoulders, complete with an armored breastplate and long pants.
