Shazam is getting a bit of a costume change for the sequel according to a new teaser (that showed up suspiciously after some set photos leaked).
In a brief video posted by director David F. Sandberg, Zachary Levi’s Shazam can be seen in a dark hallway with close-ups showcasing new parts of his costume.
Levi’s Shazam 2 outfit appears to feature more gold accents and a sleeker look, particularly around the boots and wrists. Shazam’s lightning bolt chest logo is also slightly altered to match the overall ensemble.

The Shazam sequel is officially titled Shazam! Fury of the Gods and the upcoming DC movie will once again follow teenager Billy Batson who can transform into the superhero Shazam by saying his name.
Alongside other returning cast members like Batson’s superpowered family, new to the cast are Lucy Liu and Helen Mirren who play the daughters of Atlas and the villains for the movie.
Shazam! Fury of the Gods is just one of the many DC films currently in the pipeline, and it won’t even be out until 2023.
Before that, we’ll have James Gunn’s Suicide Squad which will premiere on HBO Max as part of the company’s 2021 day-and-date plan, as well as The Batman, Black Adam, The Flash, and Aquaman 2 all in 2022.
So if you’re waiting for the next Shazam movie, given the first one was quite good, there’s going to be a bit of a wait.
