The early box office numbers for Shazam! Fury of the Gods are looking a little soft as 7 posters are released.
We are in the home stretch of marketing when it comes to the first of four DC Studios movies that are coming out this year. It’s going to be a weird year to be a DC fan now that we have this plan for the future and zero indication of whether or not this plan will include any of the characters that we are paying money to see. Maybe that is why the early box office numbers for Shazam! Fury of the Gods are not exactly stellar. The numbers aren’t terrible, $35M-$40M according to The Hollywood Reporter, but it is below what the first movie opened with. That first film had a much more modest budget compared to this sequel, but if this movie ends up being good, word of mouth could help it a lot. We have a whole pile of posters released over the last week, including four character posters released today.
Shazam! is one of the best all-around DC movie,s and it seems like people have only come to appreciate it more as time has gone on. Perhaps Shazam! Fury of the Gods is going to end up in a similar position.
