For those of us who were hoping for the rumored Superman cameo appearance in Shazam! it is appearing more likely that will not happen according to Mark Hughes of Forbes:
“It didn’t work out, getting Superman into Shazam!, apparently. Maybe that’ll change and they’ll be able to film something. There’s still a lot of time before it comes out, but as of right now there’s no Superman in Shazam! and there’s no movement on a Superman solo movie.”
Fans who saw the optimism of Superman to be a good match for Shazam will be disappointed with DC Films apparent desire to distance themselves from a scenario of a shared universe, the idea of these two icons coming together, even for a moment gave the hope of some continuity. He does acknowledge that a cameo could still be filmed, but doesn’t expect it.
Shazam! is scheduled to be released in theaters on April 5, 2019.
