The second trailer for the upcoming superhero film Shazam! Fury of the Gods was released. The feature is a sequel to the 2019 film, the 12th installment of the DC Extended Universe.
The first Shazam! film followed Billy Batson, a fourteen-year-old boy living in foster care. Billy constantly escapes from his foster homes, trying to find his biological mother. He starts over with a new peculiar foster family. In this setting, things change for Billy when he receives powers from the wizard Shazam one day. He becomes his new champion and can transform into an adult-looking superhero when saying the word Shazam! At the end of the film, his foster siblings also receive powers. In the new trailer, we can see how they are a part of the new story, helping Billy/Shazam defeat new villains.
