From New Line Cinema comes “Shazam! Fury of the Gods,” which continues the story of
teenage Billy Batson who, upon reciting the magic word “SHAZAM!,” is transformed into his adult
Super Hero alter ego, Shazam.
Bestowed with the powers of the gods, Billy Batson and his fellow foster kids are still
learning how to juggle teenage life with having adult Super Hero alter-egos. But when the
