Yesterday saw a new rumor for Shazam! Fury of the Gods pop up about a special appearance in the 2023 sequel. No one from Warner Bros. commented on the matter but director David F. Sandberg has tweeted out a statement that has fans wondering if this rumor is perhaps true right now but due to unforeseen circumstances may end up falling through. Like with the first movie, this news has to do with an appearance by Henry Cavill’s Superman, who was supposed to be seen in the 2019 movie. Sandberg took time out of his day to remind us about the circumstances of that specific moment and how they could relate to the new rumor, in theory at least.
Not going to comment on casting rumors for several reasons. One being you can’t be sure about anything until it’s happened. Halfway through shooting Shazam the plan was still for Cavill to be in it. Scoopers could have scooped that and been right at the time but wrong in the end.
