The release date for 'Shazam! Fury of the Gods' has been changed to avoid 'Avatar: The Way of Water.'
DC Films has had a major presence at CinemaCon this year. One of the most talked-about films from the Warner Brothers presentation was Shazam! Fury of the Gods. The sequel to the 2018 coming of age comedy has shifted around a lot with the crazy carousel that is the current DC Slate. The film was set to release on December 16, 2022 after moving from 2023 to this year.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY However, Shazam! is no slouch at the box office either. David F. Sandberg’s film made $366 million on a $100 million budget. This superhero origin story was praised for its well-balanced heart and humor, fun action, and a great performance from Zachary Levi. Fury of the Gods showed off new footage at CinemaCon as well and the sequel looks to strike the same magical lightning twice.
In the past, The Christmas season has shown there is plenty of room for multiple major blockbusters to have success. Famously in 2018, Aquaman, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, and Bumblebee were all released during the same holiday season — and they were all deemed major successes in their own right.
Shazam! Fury of the Gods releases on December 21, 2022. Until then, you can stream the first film on HBO Max.
