Fan Trailer Imagines Superman and Shazam Teaming Up Against Black Adam in DC Movie

 

A new DC movie fan trailer imagines a team-up between Henry Cavill's Superman and Zachary Levi's Shazam against Dwayne Johnson's Black Adam. While Black Adam was supposed to take the DCEU in a new direction, the film's box office results put plans for a Black Adam/Superman fight on hold. Shazam! Fury of the Gods also did not perform well commercially, leaving the characters' fates uncertain. Despite this, fans are still imagining what a team-up between Superman and Shazam would look like against Black Adam.

DC Studios is pursuing Elseworlds stories, which take place in their own continuities. Even though The Flash movie will reboot the DCEU into the DC Universe, it doesn't necessarily close the door on DC Studios going back to that reality through an Elseworlds setting. This means that a Shazam/Superman vs. Black Adam movie could still happen, even if the DC Universe has a new Superman, as well as Shazam and Black Adam, down the line.

A Shazam/Superman vs. Black Adam movie would be a solid way to properly end that chapter of the DCEU. Given that Shazam and Black Adam are arch-rivals in the lore, it would be fun to see that payoff happen at last and even give Cavill a chance to finish his time as Superman properly. Hopefully, as the DC Universe gets rolling, some of DC Studios' Elseworlds plans can perhaps include a Shazam/Superman vs. Black Adam film.
