Shazam 2's ending then shows Freddy finding Billy dead. Shazam's family and the kids soon arrive and begin mourning Billy Batson's death, but the Wizard suggests a burial worthy of a god is in order.
Later in the film, Billy succumbs to his injuries and dies, only to be resurrected by Wonder Woman (who has the godlike powers to revive him). Gadot's appearance is technically a surprise, but Warner Bros. spoiled her cameo long before the film even hit theaters, releasing ads with Gadot.
At Shazam's funeral, his family grieves, but Wonder Woman (played by Gal Gadot) shows up, puts the broken staff back together, and – because she's a demigod – is able to resurrect Shazam.
DC Studios only wants to release two live-action movies per year. This could mean that a theoretical Shazam 3 will not release until 2028 unless it is fast-tracked or DC increases its output goals.
Although Shazam is killed, as prophesied, by a giant granite block falling on him, Billy/Captain Marvel/Shazam can summon the ghost of Shazam for guidance by lighting a special brazier in Shazam's lair (the Rock of Eternity).
Much to his demise, Superman killed him with his heat-vision. Batson's death then convinced the Flash to defect from the Regime, recognizing that they had gone too far, providing the Insurgents with vital information about Superman's plans.
The return of the staff's magic means Shazam is resurrected instantly. He thanks Wonder Woman for doing this and attempts to flirt with his superhero crush, but she is not interested as she leaves the family. Gal Gadot's Wonder Woman cameo in Shazam 2 could be her last DC appearance.
After spending a decade in prison, C.C. returns to Philadelphia to find Billy at the Vazquezes' foster home. When he is attacked by Black Adam and the Seven Deadly Sins, Billy shares his Shazam powers with his father, making him the prophesied seventh and final member of the Shazam Family.
Mary Bromfield is Mary Marvel. She became one of the Seven Champions of Magic and a member of the Shazam Family along with the Vasquez foster family after her adoptive brother Billy Batson gave her superpowers. Mary later became the new champion of Shazam and was given the full power of the Shazam family.
Last week, The Wrap reported that Dwayne Johnson interfered with the sequel by preventing the filmmakers from using Black Adam characters in its post-credits sequence — even though Black Adam and Shazam originated in the same series of comics. Earlier this week, Shazam!
There are two post-credit scenes in Shazam 2: Fury of Gods, one in the middle and one at the end, both of which offer glimpses into future Shazam movies and the direction of the DC Extended Universe. As genuine post-credit scenes, it is highly recommended to stay in the theater to catch them.
Shazam's arch-nemesis in the comics, Black Adam, made his live-action debut in the Dwayne Johnson-starred Black Adam film released in 2022. Now, Billy Batson returns to the big screen, but a Shazam vs. Black Adam crossover seems unlikely.
Shazam is in a similar strength class as Superman, but he can also command lightning. Shazam's magical powers give him a clear advantage over Superman whenever they meet in battle. The two heroes have fought several times, and Shazam almost always takes the win unless outside forces are at play.
Since his return, Black Adam has tried repeatedly to steal Billy's powers for himself, but the Captain has always managed to defeat his dark counterpart. While Black Adam has lost numerous battles with the Captain before, he might have a strong advantage in their next bout.
Shazam acknowledges that he is unsure if he is stronger than Black Adam, despite his confidence in his mortal form. Both Shazam and Black Adam possess the same strengths endowed by the Wizard and have never been able to triumph over each other.
This character's identity was never been hinted at in the film, but the comic books and future plans for the DC Extended Universe could indicate that the seventh champion is Dwayne Johnson's Black Adam. Shazam! introduced magic to the DCEU in the beginning of the movie when a young Dr.
Despite Black Adam's challenge, Superman's Kryptonian physiology ultimately makes him stronger, as confirmed in the issue. Fans eagerly anticipate a future showdown between Superman and Black Adam, with potential for an epic battle in various mediums.
The two are equally matched in areas like strength, speed, flight, and special abilities. However, Black Adam's powers specifically derive from one of Superman's weaknesses: magic. This could be a major problem for Superman if Black Adam leveraged his magical powers correctly.
Shazam, The Flash, and more superheroes who are much stronger than Superman. Many canon storylines have depicted the powerful survivor from Krypton getting defeated in battles. Furthermore, it is cited that the superhero does not push himself to the extent of his powers, which is the reason for his defeat.
After defeating Pride, Billy and Adam prepared to contain the four riders of the apocalypse to prevent the birth of the Unkindness in a possible future, and that meant for Billy to stay in his Shazam form forever.
In comics, Billy is 12 years old in Year One, so he died at 17 by Superman. The execution of Shazam by heat vision is very close to the scene of the killing of Black Adam by Superman in the DC Universe Online Cinematic Trailer.
With Billy Batson's stated age in Shazam! being "basically 15," he is just a few months shy of 18 when he returns to wield the 6 powers of Shazam three years later in Shazam: Fury of the Gods.
