According to new comments from Shazam! Fury of the Gods director David F. Sandberg, Shazam won't be the only superhero donning new duds in this blockbuster sequel.
According to ComicBook.com, Sandberg said, "Would be weird if they didn't" on an Instagram story in response to a fan asking, "If Shazam is getting a new suit, does that mean the Shazamily is getting upgrades too?" The "Shazamily" term refers to Shazam/Billy Batson's adopted siblings, who all took on grown-up superhero identities of their own in the climax of the original Shazam!
While it's unknown what these characters' new superhero attire would look like, recent set photos have revealed the new costume for Zachary Levi's Shazam. This fresh take on the outfit featured, among other tweaks, a smaller lightning bolt on the chest and an upgraded belt. This particular image of his costume was also devoid of a cape, though other set photos of Shazam do feature a version of the outfit with a new cape.
Principal photography is currently underway for Shazam! Fury of the Gods and new elements for this feature won't be limited to costumes. The production is also introducing new villainous characters played by Helen Mirren and Lucy Liu. West Side Story star Rachel Zegler is also onboard playing an unknown part.
Directed by David F. Sandberg, Shazam! Fury of the Gods stars Zachary Levi as Shazam, Jack Dylan Grazer as Freddy Freeman, Asher Angel as Billy Batson, Marta Milans as Mama Rosa, Helen Mirren as Hespera, Lucy Liu as Kalypso and Rachel Zegler in an undisclosed role. The film arrives in theaters June 2, 2023.
