Movie director David F. Sandburg He gave an interview to Empire magazine. He pointed to the fact that for the first time in the history of the DCEU universe (Warner Bros.’s superhero franchise, his first film is man of steel from 2013), the main villains will be characters that were created specifically for the production and do not come from the comics.

This is because Shazam’s powers come from the Greek gods. What if these powers were stolen from the gods and they now want revenge?

The creator also mentioned the shooting action sequences.

It was fun destroying things. Lots of cars crashed – we dropped them from the sky. There is one scene where cars fly through the air and crash into each other; We didn’t put everything on film because there were just too many cars.

The movie will also feature monsters inspired by mythology.

We have this dragon that is made of wood and has a fear effect, and we have the tree of life, the minotaur, the mantaur… It was really fun to dive into the mythology, not the comics.
