Zachary Levi’s ‘Shazam 2’ Isn’t Canon To The DC Universe, Says James Gunn

Zachary Levi shouldn’t hold his breath about making a return to the DC Universe! James Gunn confirms that Shazam 2 isn’t canon to the new reboot.

This led to a bafflingly confusing scene where Zachary Levi’s Mightiest Mortal ended up being recruited by Peacemaker ‘s John Economos and Emilia Harcourt for Black Adam ‘s Justice Society of America. Around the same time, director David F. Sandberg revealed that John Economos and Emilia Harcourt were never meant to recruit Zachary Levi into the Justice Society, but his original plans fell apart. This led to him calling in a favor with current DC Universe co-chair Peter Safran to pull something together at the last minute, potentially meaning there was never a plan for why these two characters would appear at all.
