Shazam Fury of the Gods unveiled its first images during San Diego Comic Con. The DC movie sequel starring Zachary Levi will hit theaters on December 21, 2022.
Released on April 3, 2019, Shazam first introduced the world to a new superhero on the big screen, played by Zachary Levi.
The feature film, which brought in $366 million in worldwide revenue and attracted 1 million spectators in France, was entitled to its sequel, called Fury of the Gods.
Present at Comic Con, which takes place this weekend in San Diego, Zachary Levi unveiled the first images of this 2nd part.
We find Billy Batson there, a few years after the events depicted in Shazam. The superhero continues to fight crime with his family, while undergoing therapy, not considering himself as charismatic as Batman, Aquaman or Flash.
However, Shazam will very quickly have to remobilize to face a new threat: Hespera! It is Helen Mirren who lends her features to the great villain of this second part, who is none other than the daughter of the God Atlas.
Director David F. Sandberg decided to create this all-new antagonist from scratch. Indeed, Hespera does not exist in the comics, unlike Atlas. In Greek mythology, Atlas is a Titan condemned by Zeus to carry the celestial vault for eternity.
The Gods of Olympus will therefore come to join in the battle that awaits Billy and his friends in Fury of the Gods, expected for December 21 in theaters.
Note that Asher Angel and Zachary Levi, who respectively play Billy Batson and his alter ego Shazam, return for this second episode.
His super-heroic family is also back, both young and their super-heroic equivalents, which will allow us to see Jack Dylan Grazer, Adam Brody, Ross Butler or even Meagan Good.
As for Helen Mirren, Rachel Zegler and Lucy Liu, they will be the little news of this second opus, which promises to be as crazy as the first.
