Shazam 2 Director Reveals What He's Most Excited About The Sequel
Shazam! Fury of the Gods director David F. Sandberg reveals what he is most excited about within the upcoming DCEU sequel. Back in 2019, Shazam! became a box office hit as it saw Asher Angel take on the role of Billy Batson, a young boy who is granted the power to transform into the superhero Shazam (played by Zachary Levi) by simply saying the name aloud. Many were therefore delighted when it was later announced that the unique DC installment would be getting the sequel treatment, with Sandberg set to return to helm the project once again.
Shazam! Fury of the Gods will see the return of a number of the first film's principal cast, including both Angel and Levi. Jack Dylan Grazer, Grace Fulton, Meagan Good, Ross Butler, and Adam Brody are all set to return, alongside three very exciting new additions. Helen Mirren and Lucy Liu will star as Hespera and Kalypso, two of the daughters of Atlas, who are set to lead as Shazam's villainous counterparts. West Side Story's Rachel Zegler was also cast in a role that, until recently, remained shrouded in mystery, before the star herself confirmed that she would be playing both Mirren and Liu's younger sister.
