This lack of path is why it is unlikely that DC Studios will proceed with the franchise. “Fury of the Gods” underperformed at the box office, making only $30.5 million domestically in its opening weekend. Given its approximate price range of between $110 and $125 million, it isn’t wanting probably that the film will flip a revenue.
That being stated, how a lot of this could essentially be blamed on Johnson? His alleged refusal to permit the JSA to seem in “Fury of the Gods” actually made the movie lack the right continuity, particularly given how Black Adam is the Joker to Shazam’s Batman. Nonetheless, whereas /Movie’s Jeff Ewing enjoyed the film, it actually has its fair proportion of flaws that many have criticized. Even when Johnson allegedly believes himself to be “crucial particular person in any scenario or room,” as one Hollywood govt informed The Wrap, it looks like he cannot be solely blamed for the poor efficiency of “Fury of the Gods” and the potential cancelation of the “Shazam!” franchise generally.
On the intense facet, that will not grow to be the first narrative surrounding the movie. Outdoors of seemingly confirming The Wrap’s report, Levi has additionally steered that advertising performed a job within the underperformance of “Fury of the Gods” in a Twitter publish.
“I believe the largest problem we’re having is advertising. It is a excellent household film, and but loads of households aren’t conscious of that,” he wrote, “which is only a disgrace.”
