This December's ShazamFuryOfTheGods will find Billy Batson grappling with the uncertainty of his future as adulthood draws ever closer. The new story details were revealed at SDCC22.
Shazam! Fury of the Gods will see Billy Batson concerned about his future. Director David F. Sandberg's first Shazam came out in 2019, chronicling the story of Angel's orphaned teenager as he develops the ability to transform into an adult superhero after a run-in with an ancient wizard . Shazam was a commercial and critical success, grossing $366 million and garnering praise for its vibrant, cheerful sense of fun.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY The movie is being touted as a bigger and more action-packed follow-up to the original Shazam. Fury of the Gods has a pair of exciting new supervillains - Hespera, played by Helen Mirren, and Kalypso, played by Lucy Liu- and costume upgrades for the entire Shazam family. Those upgrades will be supported by a time jump, as Shazam 2 will take place two years after the first movie.
Family has been an essential theme in the Shazam franchise. Billy lost his biological family, but could still find love and compassion from his foster siblings and parents. With adulthood calling, it makes sense for him to be afraid of potentially losing the relationships he so greatly values. By the time Fury of the Gods picks up, Billy and his siblings will have settled into their new superpowered situation.
Another paradox that adulthood could possibly create for Billy might concern his superpowers. Right now, Billy is living out every kid's dream by being able to turn into a superhero at will. However, as he gets older and is saddled with more responsibilities, it might become increasingly difficult for him to balance being a superhero and a growing young man. Should DC opt to make a Shazam 3 or include Billy in future movies, this is a concept that can be explored in greater detail.
