Although the current DC universe is condemned to his burial after the events that occur in The Flash, the Snyderverso will have its official farewell this 2023 with several films that aim to be quite entertaining. One of them is Shazam!: The Fury of the Godswhich will give us a good dose of action and humor in a sequel that aims to be twice as epic as the first film.
In this second part, the superhero will not be alone, since he will be accompanied by different superheroes of similar power. Such is this meeting, that its director David Sandberg wanted to compare this tape as a “Avengers Mini Movie”. This has been commented during an interview with GamesRadar, where he has spoken at length about his next film.
It’s like a mini Avengers movie. This is how I saw it because we have a lot of characters in the movie. You have all these heroes, you have the villains, you have the monsters… And it’s complicated. Just shooting and staging up to 11 characters in the same shot… Where do you put everyone? It is very difficult!”
Of course, comparing this second part of Shazam with a movie as gigantic as The Avengers is somewhat risky. We are talking about a film that has made history in superhero cinema by uniting so many characters in a single film.
Unfortunately, we are not entirely sure that this gathering of superheroes reaches the caliber of the work of Marvel Studios. Rather, we expect a nice movie in which Zachary Levi brings out the best version of him and we are left with a good memory of the old DCU before his disappearance.
