In fact, the Shazam sequel just set quite an awful record regarding its box office performance. As shared via Deadline, the movie isn’t making anywhere near what the studio would be hoping for. The film is actually projected to only make $30 million during its opening weekend – which is five million less than what was projected four weeks ago. This follows after the film made 44% less than its predecessor during their…

The all-new sequel to DC’s Shazam! has finally hit theaters. Now, as per usual, the all-new post-credits scenes for Shazam! Fury of the Gods have been revealed.

This certainly puts the future of the Shazam! film franchise in an unclear light. Though the inclusion of these post-credits scenes are still an interesting approach for the newly-released film. First, the end of the film itself includes a happy conclusion for…

Now fans are shocked to see that Zack Snyder is teasing an announcement for some type of event related to his work on the superhero blockbuster.

The Movie Critic, if counting Kill Bill Volume 1 and Volume 2 as one feature, would be that tenth movie. As such, this is definitely a bittersweet moment for fans of the filmmaker. Here are the project details that THR was able to share:…
