The second day of DC FanDome took place on Saturday, and Shazam! director David F. Sandberg was on hand to share some vague updates about what fans can expect from Shazam!: Fury of the Gods.

As you might expect, there's not a lot he could say about the 2022 release at this stage, but asked about the sequel's villains, he teased some surprises for fans. "I can't really talk about villains or villain, but I think a lot of people will be surprised," he said. "It's gonna be a little unexpected."

Shazam! ended with a big hint that the titular hero will square off with Mister Mind and a returning Dr. Sivana, though it now sounds as if there could be more to the follow-up than meets the eye. 

Something Sandberg could confirm, though, is that Shazam!: Fury of the Gods is going to feature more of the Shazam Family after they entered the DC Universe at the end of the first movie. "Now they're all superheroes, they're all a family with superpowers. And now we finally get to see that. We only got a glimpse of that in the first movie, so that's something to look forward to."

That should be a lot of fun, and the movie's younger cast members are still young enough that it won't seem too ridiculous for them to continue transforming into adults (despite a three-year gap between Shazam! and this follow-up). One thing we do know is that there aren't currently any plans for Zachary Levi's Shazam to face off with Dwayne Johnson's Black Adam...at least not yet.

What are you most excited to see in Shazam!: Fury of the Gods?

@TheWalkingCuban - haha. I was a fan from Darla from the comics. I had a feeling she would be a standout.

I bet Mr. Mind is assembling the Monster Society of Evil.

@Battabing - I agree. The first movie was based a lot on Geoff Johns's first story, so I'd assume his last story would be the basis for Part 2.

Unexpected villains? Fury of the Gods?

Maybe...

@Repian - That would be interesting. And you could still have Mr. Mind as the mastermind character who manipulates the whole conflict.

Yea, his family was beyond awesome. I mean, "he" had to practice for a long time and make many mistakes before he could fly and fight properly, and his family just picked up on it right away. <----- sarcasm.

This movie was so forgettable its crazy, how can you watch a movie that was actually ok on humor with Levi who was brilliant but then after your like.....What a disappointment.

Why did they introduce the Shazam family so early? Was it really necessary? We needed to explore Shazam a little more before letting the other kids take the spot light which the literally did, it was a shame cause the movie could had been so much more and less forgettable.

One of the interesting things will be to see how they have adapted to still being all in highschool and also becoming heroes and fighting the new threats.
