David F. Sandberg had a pretty hilarious way of addressing the earlyShazam 2reviews that have popped up online. The director put together a fake trailer and used the reviews to start hyping the sequel, which has not even been filmed yet. Sandberg and crew are still waiting for production to start on the long-awaited sequel, which was delayed due to the ongoing pandemic. We should get a true update on the further adventures of Billy Batson and friends next week during DC’s FanDome event.
Social media site Letterboxd now has a few reviews forShazam 2up. This led toDavid F. Sandbergmaking a fake trailer to start the marketing campaign for the sequel, which is made up of footage from the first installment. “I’m fine with this,” one user wrote, while another said, “I’m gonna be 19 when this comes out what.” It looks and feels like a real trailer forShazam 2, with absurd early reviews including, “Jack Dylan Grazer I’m free Thursday night to paint ur nails and dance in ur room to Fleetwood Mac.”
David F. Sandberg announced that he was stilltinkering with the Shazam 2 scriptback in April. “Well, we’ll see how long this goes, because I mean, we were going to start shooting this year. But, I mean, who knows how long this will go on? I mean, it feels like every movie gets delayed now, so we’ll see what happens withShazam!,” he said. It doesn’t look like production will be able to take place this year unless DC and Warner Bros. already have a destination planned out to keep the cast and crew safe.
Regardless ofwhen Shazam 2 begins shooting, the release date has been significantly pushed back from its original April 2022 date. Now, the movie will arrive in November 2022, though that could easily be pushed to early 2023 with the way things are moving in North America. With that being said, we’ll just have to wait and see what Warner Bros. and David F. Sandberg decide to do when the time comes. At the very least, this will give Sandberg some extra time to continue tweaking the script for the sequel.
Shazam!star Zachary Levi recentlycelebrated the one-year anniversaryof the movie hitting theaters. “So very grateful for everything this role has brought into my life, and so damn excited to step back into the spandex as soon as we’re ready to rock ‘n roll again,” he said. Levi has always hoped that a sequel was going to pan out and he has been hyping DC fans online for over a year now. Hopefully he and David F. Sandberg will deliver some good news next week at the DC FanDome event. you may check out the fake trailer forShazam 2above, thanks toDavid F. Sandberg’s Twitteraccount.
