Shazam!: Fury of the Gods
Nearly 4 years later, Billy Bateson/Shazam (Asher Angel/Zachary Levi) & his foster family of champions must do battle with the daughters of Atlas (Helen Mirren, Lucy Lui, & Rachel Zegler) in order to save the world. Also returning is the Wizard (Djimon Hounshou) & his magical staff. Among the spectacular special effects are a ferocious dragon & some evil mythical monsters. Billy struggles with self doubts & uniting his foster family as they are growing up & facing their own personal problems. Look for a cameo tease & surprise. See familiar Philadelphian landmarks destroyed. Will Shazam save the day or will he have to make the ultimate sacrifice? A mid & a post credit clip hint to future possibilities with new & old characters.
Alien gives it 3 “all or none” stars out of 4.
