Shazam! Fury of the Gods: A brief synopsis
Shazam! Fury of the Gods is imagined as a sequel to 2019’s Shazam! Which saw Zachary Levi star as the titular character, aka Billy Batson. That movie ended with Billy Batson’s foster brothers and sisters sharing the powers of Shazam with Billy, creating somewhat of a Shazam family.
That, it seems, made the gods furious, and now the Shazam family has to fight the Daughters of Atlas and prevent them from using a deadly weapon that can destroy the entire planet.

The star-studded cast (other than Zachary Levi) will include Lucy Liu as Kalypso, Helen Mirren as Hespera, Rachel Zegler as Anthea, Djimon Hounsou as Shazam, the last surviving member of the Council of Wizards, and others.
As I’ve mentioned, the movie is imagined as a sequel to 2019’s Shazam!, and the 12th installment in the DCEU. However, seeing that James Gunn is planning on wiping the slate clean, how exactly this movie will play into the bigger picture and future plans for the DCU remains to be seen.
