Director David F. Sandberg took to Twitter to confirm that production on Warner Bros. Pictures’ upcoming DC sequel Shazam! Fury of the Gods has finally been completed, after over three months of filming in Atlanta.
His confirmation comes after several cast members including Asher Angel have wrapped up shooting their parts last week. The film is currently slated to arrive in theaters on June 2, 2023. Next month, fans waiting for the sequel are set to be treated with a behind-the-scenes look at the Zachary Levi-led film at Warner Bros.’ second edition of DC FanDome which will be launching on October 16.

Further details about the sequel’s plot are still being kept under wraps. Shazam! Fury of the Gods will see the return of Asher Angel and Zachary Levi as they reprise their respective roles as Billy Batson and Shazam!. Joining them are returning cast members including Jack Dylan Grazer and Adam Brody as Freddy; Faithe Herman and Meagan Good as Darla; Ian Chen and Ross Bulter as Eugene; Grace Fulton as Mary; Jovan Arman and D.J. Cotrona as Pedro; Marta Milans, Cooper Andrews, and Djimon Hounsou.
After defeating Sivana and the Seven Deadly Sins two years ago, the sequel will feature the Shazam family going up against much more dangerous and godly threats, with the introductions of the daughters of Atlas, Hespera, and Kalypso, who are set to be portrayed by Oscar winner Helen Mirren and Kill Bill actress Lucy Liu. West Side Story star Rachel Zeigler has also been cast for an undisclosed key role.
