LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: 'Shazam!',  a 2019 DCEU film, has a long-awaited sequel called 'Shazam! Fury of the Gods'. Billy Batson (Asher Angel), a foster child who has the ability to change into a superhero, is the focus of this movie once more. Every time he repeats the word "Shazam," Zachary Levi, who plays the superhero, transforms into a superhero. Billy battles criminals and comes to love his new family with the aid of his foster siblings-turned- superheroes.

It's not surprising that Warner Bros confirmed in 2019 that a sequel to 'Shazam!' was in the works because the original film garnered a lot of positive reviews from critics for being lighter and more enjoyable than the prior DCEU movies.

When will 'Shazam! Fury of the Gods' release in theaters?

'Shazam! Fury of the Gods' was originally scheduled to hit theatres on December 21, 2022, however, that date has subsequently been moved to March 17, 2023. A month before a movie premieres in theatres, tickets usually go on sale. The release of 'Shazam! Fury of the Gods' in theatres is scheduled for March 17, so it's likely that tickets will go on sale on or around Feb 17. This will offer fans plenty of time to organize their trip and purchase their tickets before the movie premieres in theatres to watch DC's most recent flick.

The movie is anticipated to have a broad release, which indicates that it ought to launch in all of the big US theatre chains, including Cinemark and AMC. This will make it easier to give fans a wide range of options based on where they are. Ticket costs may vary according to the market, but regardless of the chain, they should go on sale on the same day across the US.

How did 'Shazam!' end?

At the end of 'Shazam!', Billy (Asher Angel and Zachary Levi) makes it up to Freddy (Jack Dylan Grazer) for embarrassing him in front of the school. Earlier in the movie, after obtaining his powers from a dying wizard and becoming a superhero, Billy promises to show up to school as Shazam and sit next to Freddy at lunch. Instead, he busks on the Rocky Steps performing superhero tricks for cash. Now, at the end of the movie, Billy comes all Shazam’d up, telling everyone at the school how cool of a guy Freddy is. That’s when Billy pulls out an extra trick by introducing a “friend” of his. "The friend" is only seen from the neck down but we can clearly see that the friend is wearing Superman's costume and well, that's it. Cut to credits!
