Shazam! Fury of the Gods is the upcoming sequel to the 2019 original movie starring Zachary Levi. Set in the DCEU, the first Shazam! movie was released in April 2019. The movie received positive reviews for its light tone and sense of fun, and grossed $366 million against the $100 million budget. Although the movie didn’t earn as much as some other DCEU movies like Aquaman and Wonder Woman, it was still successful enough for WB to greenlight a sequel.

WB initially announced that the sequel will arrive in June 2023, before the schedule was reshuffled and the movie was moved up to December 2022; first to December 16, and then it was moved to December 21 to avoid direct competition with Avatar: The Way of Water. Although we didn’t get any official trailers so far, it is expected that we could get something solid at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con.

On the movie’s official Twitter account, a short teaser was revealed, announcing that the movie will have a panel at SDCC on July 23. You can check the teaser down below:

Zachary Levi and Asher Angel are both returning to their roles of Shazam and Billy Batson. Jack Dylan Grazer returns as Billy’s friend and foster brother Freddy, while Djimon Hounsou returns as the wizard Shazam. Rachel Zegler joined the movie in an undisclosed role. Helen Mirren and Lucy Lie joined the movie as villains Hespera and Kalypso, daughters of Atlas.

Directed by David F. Sandberg from the script written by Henry Gayden and Chris Morgan, Shazam! Fury of the Gods is set to be released on December 21, 2022.

Lukas Abramovich is a freelance writer and photo and video editor based in Croatia. He's also a web designer and holds a Master’s degree in general Computer Science from the Faculty of Informatics based in Pula, Croatia. Since 2018, Lukas has worked on several portals writing about movies, TV shows, and video games. He's currently writing articles for two of them: Fiction Horizon and Comic Basics. He also has a YouTube channel in his native language, and the content there is mostly reviewing popular movies and TV shows. Lukas also has an Instagram page where he once used to post fan-made posters he made, which is something he would like to continue working on, as photo and video editing are also some of his passions. Lukas is a big movie lover who is okay with watching any kind of movie. His favorite movie is Michael Curtiz's Casablanca, but he's a loyal follower of Marvel and DC movies, as well as several other blockbuster franchises he's been following for years; Star Wars, Fast & Furious, Mission: Impossible, and James Cameron's Avatar are only some of them. His favorite director is Christopher Nolan, with Quentin Tarantino and Denis Villeneuve as honorable mentions. Lukas is also a big fan of four fantasy multimedia franchises; The Wizarding World, A Song of Ice and Fire, The Witcher, and The Lord of the Rings. He calls them "the four rulers of the fantasy genre." He loves to write about anything spawned from those franchises (books, games, movies...), as well as anything branded with the Marvel or DC logo. Video games and their adaptations are also something he follows faithfully since he's a big fan of story-driven single-player games like Assassin's Creed, The Last of Us, Uncharted, etc. His favorite video game ever is Red Dead Redemption 2.
