Zachary Levi's Shazam 2 has found some unexpected fan support days before release after WB reveals its surprisingly low budget.

The film’s cast will see returning actors like Asher Angel as Billy Batson and Adam Brody and Jack Dylan Grazer portraying the older and younger versions of Freddy respectively alongside newcomers Helen Mirren, Lucy Liu, and Rachel Zegler posing as Hesperia, Kalypso, and Anthea respectively. Fury of the Gods has been written by scriptwriters Henry Gayden, Chris Parker, and Bill Parker, and directed by David F Sandberg. However, the narrative of Shazam! Days before its release, the announced budget of the film has thrown the fandom into a frenzy. In 2019, at the São Paulo CCXP in Brazil, the sequel was announced to be put into motion.

Does Shazam 2 Have A Post-Credits Scene (& How Many)? (Screen Rant)

The sequel to 2019 DC movie continues the story of Billy Batson but does Shazam! Fury of the Gods have a post-credits scene — and, if so, how many?

Fury of the Gods, followed by The Flash, Blue Beetle and Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom. In terms of the credits scenes themselves, the first is perhaps more immediately important to Shazam's future than the latter. Picking up the story of Billy Batson (Asher Angel) and his alterego of Shazam (Zachary Levi), Fury of the Gods sees the DC superhero take on the Daughters of Atlas.

How 'Shazam! 2' fits into the DC universe (AS English)

The sequel to 2019's 'Shazam', a movie by David F. Sandberg is to be released in theaters Friday, March 17.

The second teaser turns the action up even more, portraying several action-packed fight scenes and epic scenes of mass destruction. Jack Dylan Grazer will reprise his role as Frederick “Freddy” Freeman, with Adam Brody playing the grown-up version of his superhero. “And I think that we’ve gotten lucky with the next four movies,” he continued “because we have ‘Shazam’ which leads into ‘Flash’, which resets everything. Which then goes into ‘Blue Beetle’, which is totally disconnected, he can totally be a part of the DCU. The movie, set in Philadelphia, is completely destroyed, while the voice of Helen Mirren as Hespera warns of what is to come. In January 2023, James Gunn, head of DC studios, talked about how DC movies fit into the company’s bottom line, and how ‘Shazam’ is a film meant to unify the DC universe.

This year's box-office has been surprisingly stellar with such mid-budget hits as “M3Gan,” “Creed III,” “Cocaine Bear,” “Scream VI” and “80 For Brady.”

I saw most of ‘Shazam 2’ this morning, but I won’t be reviewing it because I walked out of the movie after 90 minutes. The film is set to be unveiled in over 4000 screens this weekend. Despite making around $190 million at the box-office, this year’s “Ant and the Wasp: Quantamania” performed well below expectations.

Shazam 2 Film Review: A Superhero Series Worth Saving (IndieWire)

'Shazam! Fury of the Gods' Review: The DC Universe (Old and New) Still Needs This Warm-Hearted Superhero. David F. Sandberg's second feature about the unlikely ...

Eventually, Shazam and those naughty sisters (plus a third, who we won’t spoil here) have to reckon with each other, after the goddesses steal Freddy, seal off Philly, and snatch the powers of the rest of the family. Fury of the Gods” is doing them well, the film is a sterling reminder of how truly wide the genre can be, and how increasingly narrow it feels. Billy’s entire ethos hinges on his family motto — “all or none!” — that requires all of his foster siblings (and fellow superheroes) to participate in said missions, which have gone so haywire that the troupe has earned the moniker “The Philly Fiascos.” Despite the universal stakes of what’s unfolding, the action feels relatively contained (the monsters look good, the lightning Shazam so often employs has never looked better, but it all feels as if was shot on a single backlot). While the first film chronicled the dizzy joy and total wackiness of a kid (a kid!) getting superpowers, its sequel takes that to its next logical stop: a couple of years into this hero thing, and young Billy Batson (Asher Angel returns to play the teenage hero when he’s not in Shazam get-up) is suffering from imposter syndrome. And, as continues to be the case with any and all major superhero films, they get really big, with the fate of nothing less than the entire universe in the balance. Namely, it’s really scary for a film ostensibly aimed at kids (the film is rated PG-13, which allows the many teens who populate it to swear in normal cadence, but also makes room for some truly unsettling violence), but it’s also a bit confusing, played out of sequence (we later learn that the opening scene actually takes place days and days after the rest of the film kicks off), and it requires a whole mess of exposition. Young Darla (played by Faithe Herman as a kiddo, and the extraordinarily charming Meagan Good in her superhero form) just wants a kitten, Pedro (Jovan Armand and D.J. a giant magical stick last seen being broken in two by Shazam himself (Zachary Levi) at the end of the first film. Fury of the Gods](https://www.indiewire.com/t/shazam-fury-of-the-gods/),” our hero’s hometown of Philadelphia gets sealed into a giant, magical bubble. Fury of the Gods” doesn’t entirely recapture the giddy fun of the first film, its humor, sweetness, and delightfully human heroes remaining bright spots in a genre too often obsessed with the dark and the gritty. What better metaphor for this series’ place in the DC Universe, a sprawling franchise that never quite cohered and is now [getting a major retooling at the hands of new brass,](https://www.indiewire.com/2023/01/dc-studios-james-gunn-rebuild-1234805366/) do you need?

Movie review: 'Shazam! 2' frustrates with cluttered story - UPI.com (UPI.com)

"Shazam! Fury of the Gods" introduces a lot of good ideas in the sequel, but unfortunately abandons most of them for the usual superhero business.

It's just the thing Shazam and company have to undo at the end. That is a poignant milestone worthy of following after the first film's loving portrayal of a caring foster home. A lot of superhero sequels coincidentally deal with the heroes losing their powers, too. The reason for Billy's anxiety is that he's about to turn 18 and age out of the foster system. Shazam and his friends will have to stop the Daughters and work out their differences. Fury of the Gods, in theaters Friday, unfortunately struggles with the sort of identity crisis that confronts many superhero sequels.

'Shazam 2' review: Shockingly good though we may never see hero ... (INSIDER)

'Shazam: Fury of the Gods' is shockingly good. It's frustrating we may never see these characters again. · Warning: There are minor spoilers ahead for "Shazam: ...

The sequel fails to really explain how Djimon Hounsou's wizard is back after turning to dust in the last movie, but I don't think anyone will question it much since he makes for fun comedic relief. Like most DC films these days, there are moments it's unclear where the Justice League, Justice Society, and other heroes are when the world's supposedly at risk to crumble. It isn't a superpower that makes us powerful. One hilarious scene which had my critic screening bursting at the seams involved Mirren reading a letter aloud. For those who have voiced concerns, the teaser isn't the only time you see this character in the movie. If you liked the first film, you'll have a good time here. Trailers made it appear Hespera (Mirren) and Kalypso (Liu) were simply out to destroy Billy's family for having powers they didn't earn. Infused with the childlike joy that made the first so enjoyable, "Shazam: Fury of the Gods" explores the complexities of what it means to be a hero and how everyone can be worthy if given the chance. It's a miracle "Fury of the Gods" is as good a film as it is. In no way is "Fury of the Gods" a poor sequel, so it's beyond frustrating that opening weekend projections for the film The advance reveal undercuts the sequel's emotional climactic scene. I had little to no expectations for "Shazam: Fury of the Gods."

Shazam! Fury of the Gods Review - IGN (IGN)

However, it was Billy Batson's soulful search for his biological family – and realization that the family he'd longed for was in front of him all along – which ...

Even in the face of James Gunn and Peter Safran’s impending DCU reboot, Fury of the Gods tells its own story on its own terms, and the missteps it makes along the way at least feel part and parcel with the efforts of a team trying to forge their own path – both in front of and behind the camera. John Wick: Chapter 4 will be available in theaters and IMAX on March 24, 2023 (or March 23rd in Australia/NZ).](/videos/john-wick-chapter-4-official-final-trailer) [The Little Mermaid - Official Trailer“The Little Mermaid” is the beloved story of Ariel, a beautiful and spirited young mermaid with a thirst for adventure. As for Levi’s embodiment of Shazam, the word that rings loudest here is “consistent.” The boyishness of Billy Batson still comes through clear in Levi’s performance, but his occasional melancholy self-doubt isn’t much of a substitute for the comedic goldmine of Billy learning how to be both an adult and a superhero last time. “The Little Mermaid” is directed by Oscar® nominee Rob Marshall (“Chicago,” “Mary Poppins Returns”)with a screenplay by two-time Oscar nominee David Magee (“Life of Pi,” “Finding Neverland”). There’s not much to dislike about Grazer’s performance in a vacuum, but it’s what Fury of the Goes is missing as a result of its focus on him that leaves Freddy’s exuberance a double-edged sword. That’s not to say there aren’t references to the larger DC world to be found, just that they’re obviously not the point of this movie existing in the first place. It’s Grazer’s horrified reaction to an especially callous act of violence inflicted on a friend that grounds the Daughters’ malice in something recognizable after a first act which mostly sees them operating in the background. Moments where the kids come up with goofy solves for Serious Problems are gratifying, but Fury of the Gods’ action starts to feel a little tiresome going into the third act, where samey mythological creatures are dropped in to essentially distract the heroes who get less screen time while Shazam gets to do the monologuing with the villains. But with Hespera representing the Daughters in most conversations, Kalypso feels woefully underwritten and leaves Liu’s god with nothing but fury to work with. They’re led by Hespera, and Helen Mirren’s near-total command of her character’s function as not just the lead villain, but as a steely confident straight woman to the goofy Shazamily’s antics is delightful. However, it was Billy Batson’s soulful search for his biological family – and realization that the family he’d longed for was in front of him all along – which helped it achieve more staying power than a lot of other movies in this genre. This time we see the Shazamily putting their newfound abilities to the test against a trio of deadly deities set on overrunning Earth, and though the Greek myth iconography the villains bring to the table gives all involved a significantly increased Pandora’s toy box to play with, the movie stumbles on some storytelling basics that leave the sequel feeling less powerful than the first.

Shazam 2 Early Reviews: A Hero Worthy Of James Gunn's New DC ... (Screen Rant)

Early reviews for Shazam! Fury of the Gods, starring Zachary Levi as the titular hero, surface ahead of the DC movie's theatrical release.

Fury of the Gods is a delightful ride and a worthy follow-up to the first film. Fury of the Gods is a success, the franchise might continue. What remains to be seen is what the future of Shazam! The opening of the film finds Hespera and Kalypso wreaking havoc in a museum as they pull off a heist. There's merit to the childish sense of fun at the heart of the film, a literalization of the imagination inherent to the premise of a kid shouting a magic word to become a superhero. Fury of the Gods is the kind of big, broad blockbuster that movie theaters can always afford to have more of. In fact, the mismatched team-up of Grazer and Hounsou is where Fury of the Gods shines brightest, a nice reminder that this film can actually be funny. Fury of the Gods is a fun movie willing to embrace weird monsters, giant dragons, and lightning punches.

Shazam! 2 Reviews Tease a Humorous, But Overstuffed DC Sequel (Superherohype.com)

The first reviews for Shazam! Fury of the Gods are making their way online, and reactions seem to be mixed so far.

A few other DCEU movies still need to hit theaters before WB’s reset kicks off in 2025, but in Schager’s view, Fury of the Gods doesn’t give fans much of a reason to get excited for what’s next—“Messy and mirthless, it resounds as the death knell for this interconnected cinematic enterprise’s current iteration.” [Nerdist](https://nerdist.com/article/shazam-fury-of-the-gods-review-dc-david-f-sandberg-zachary-levi/) was happy to see that Fury of the Gods retained Shazam!’s familiar charms. He also praised the “energetic humor” of the larger Shazamily and the introduction of the Daughters of Atlas (though he did call Lucy Liu’s Kalypso the “weakest link” of the bunch). The ensuing blend of heart and humor even “bodes well for [the franchise’s] future in the uncertain DC Universe,” assuming it has a place there at all. And his alter-ego’s lack of wisdom gets to be tedious after a while, making it seem like viewers are “just watching an immature dope in a cape” rather than a formidable superhero. 2 Director on the Absence of Black Adam and Mister Mind](https://www.superherohype.com/movies/528896-shazam-2-director-on-the-absence-of-black-adam-and-mister-mind) [DiscussingFilm](https://discussingfilm.net/2023/03/15/shazam-fury-of-the-gods-review-an-even-bigger-bundle-of-joy/)’s Ben Rolph found the sequel to be “just as hilarious and endearing” as the original film, with lots of “twists and turns” that shouldn’t disappoint longtime DC fans.

Shazam's unique humor makes him the most capable hero in the old DC to make the transition to Gunn and Safran's new regime (ahem, not to tell you what to do, but we recommend staying in your seat until all of the credits roll on Fury of the Gods), but we need more than fun to make the investment worthwhile. The question on the minds of viewers going into the theater is not just is the movie good or bad, but does Shazam: Fury of the Gods make a case for the Shazamily to live on? The second film keeps the comedy of teenagers morphing into the bodies of their super-powered, older alter-egos intact and manages to weave in a heartwarming backstory even more effectively than the first film. He's the non-Shazam character given the most to do as he desperately wants to find his own path and figure out his own superhero identity after Billy gifted him with powers. This brief lesson in Hollywood politics and inside baseball is all to say that Fury of the Gods has not only the pressure of a pandemic-delayed film but also the fate of the franchise on its shoulders. While not a lot is known about where Gunn and Safran want to take DC's film universe, we do know that they are essentially burning the house that Zack Snyder and Geoff Johns built to the ground and starting (kind of) from scratch.
