While the future of the DCEU is still a big question to audiences, some films have been trudging along when it comes to production. Shazam! Fury of the Gods is set to come out in 2023, but we have some new set photos of the World’s Mightiest Mortal getting into some scrapes.

Since we don’t have a plot for the movie yet, it’s going to be hard to speculate on what scene this could be from. While it’s possible that it could just be from a fight early in the movie, the damage on the suit makes me think that we could be seeing glimpses of some kind of climactic battle.
While some have been waiting for Shazam to clash with Black Adam in the big screen, it looks like DC is opting for a slow burn, giving some background to Adam first before he battles Billy Batson. For Fury of the Gods, we’re going to be seeing Billy go up against the likes of Hespera (Helen Mirren) and Kalypso (Lucy Liu) first. Fingers crossed we get the return of Mister Mind after the teaser from the last film.
Though there is still a cry from fans to #RestoreTheSnyderVerse, it looks like WB is going ahead with this more lighthearted film. If anything, The Flash film is expected to introduce a multiverse to the DCEU, so we could be looking at multiple versions of the same hero exisiting at the same time.
Shazam! Fury of the Gods is set to come out on June 2, 2023.
