Zachary Levi isn’t having such a great couple of weeks, is he? Obviously, he was hoping “Shazam! Fury of the Gods” would be a massive hit and that would force James Gunn and Peter Safran, co-CEOs of DC Studios, to somehow work the character into their new slate of projects.

James Gunn Denies New Superman Actor Is in ‘Final Talks’: I’m ‘Prepping’ Audition Material and Haven’t Spoken to a ‘Single Actor About the Role’

Zack Sharf Digital News Director The search for the new Superman actor is not as far along as some social media rumors suggest. “Beyond the Trailer” host Grace Randolph recently took to Twitter to announce Gunn is “very close” to landing an actor to play the eponymous superhero in his upcoming “Superman: Legacy.” Randolph went as far as to claim the role “might even be cast” already or is in “final talks.” Not so fast. Gunn shot down the report and provided an update on his Superman casting process. “Not true,” Gunn replied. “Haven’t had a single talk with a single actor about the role. Just making private lists, prepping material for auditions.” Randolph took Gunn’s rebuttal as an opportunity to reveal her scoop that it was “Percy Jackson” and “Hunters” star Logan Lerman who is Gunny’s top choice for Superman. Gunn also shot down that claim.

Zachary Levi says ‘Shazam! 2’ criticism “doesn’t make any sense”

Shazam! Fury Of The Gods after a string of negative reviews.As it stands, the sequel to Shazam! currently has a Rotten Tomatoes score of just 51 per cent and in a two-star review, NME wrote: “Swapping comedy for quips and action for messiness, the overstuffed, under-lit sequel only ever seems accidentally enjoyable.“Fury Of The Gods gets a big, silly ending which is occasionally fun, but there’s a cheap and clumsy feel to everything – a superhero sequel made in the same vague shape as a dozen others.“In a new Instagram post, Levi (who plays the grown-up Billy Batson/Shazam in the film) has defended the film.“It’s a throwback to all the movies that we knew and loved growing up in the ‘80s and ‘90s,” said Levi after comparing it to The Goonies. “You’ll thoroughly enjoy it.”“It’s disappointing to not be doing as well as I think we deserve to be, because I think we made a really great movie.

Brie Larson says she was “scared” of joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe

Brie Larson was “scared of what would happen” to her when she joined the Marvel Cinematic Universe.The actor, who made her MCU debut in 2019’s Captain Marvel as the title character, said the idea of playing a superhero initially frightened her because of the worldwide attention.“I was scared of what would happen to me,” Larson told Harper’s Bazaar, explaining that she was worried a huge blockbuster franchise would prevent her from being a normal person and doing the things she loves in the world.“I was like, ‘What world is this, where these are the choices I have to make as an artist?’” she recalled thinking at the time.She added: “Anytime I feel like I’m being put too much on a pedestal, it’s my job to figure out how to remove that within myself.”Larson will reprise her role of Captain Marvel in The Marvels later this year, alongside Iman Vellani as Ms. Marvel, Teyonah Parris as Monica Rambeau and Samuel L.

Zachary Levi Says ‘Shazam 2’ Credits Scene Got ‘Thwarted’ and ‘It’s a Shame’ if All Comic Book Movies Have to Be ‘Serious, Intense, Dark’

Zack Sharf Digital News Director Almost a week after “Shazam! Fury of the Gods” opened in theaters and bombed at the box office, Zachary Levi took to Instagram to weigh in on a whole lot of drama surrounding the DC comic book tentpole. In a video, the actor confirmed that plans for the “Fury of the Gods” post-credits scene — in which Shazam is recruited to join the Justice Society — were “thwarted,” although he did not say by who. A report from The Wrap published after “Fury of the God’s” opening weekend claimed that Dwayne Johnson sabotaged the “Shazam” post-credits scene by blocking “Black Adam” characters Cyclone (Quintessa Swindell) and Hawkman (Aldis Hodge) from appearing in it. Johnson headlined “Black Adam” and aimed to start a new thread of the DC Universe built around his character facing off against Henry Cavill’s Superman. “Black Adam” also underperformed at the box office, and both Johnson and Cavill are not included in the new DC Universe being spearheaded by DC Studios bosses James Gunn and Peter Safran.
