Shazam 2, produced by New Line Cinema, DC Films, The Safran Company, and Seven Bucks Productions, boasts a star-studded cast including Helen Mirren, Lucy Liu, Adam Brody, and Djimon Honsou. Despite its underwhelming reception, Zegler’s positive attitude towards the film may encourage more viewers to give it a chance.
In conclusion, Zegler’s call to watch the movie without prejudice is a reminder that a film’s success should not be determined solely by critical reviews. Shazam 2 has plenty to offer to fans of superhero movies, and it deserves a fair chance to prove itself.
