One of the first projects to break the mold of its DCEU predecessors was the film Shazam!, which became a very different kind of superhero film. Now a possibly cameo could make the upcoming Shazam! sequel tied much more directly with the greater DCEU. In particular, there’s a suggestion that Gal Gadot might appear in the film as her character Wonder Woman.
While there have already been rumors about such an appearance, actress Rachel Zegler just added plenty of fuel to the fire. Rachel Zegler is already attached to the film in a mysterious role, so fans are already curious about who she could be playing. But now it seems she could be tied to Wonder Woman. In particular, she mentioned that another film project she’s working on – Snow White – isn’t the first time she’s met Gal Gadot, who plays the Evil Queen in Snow White.
As mentioned in an interview with Empire Magazine:
“I’m not going to say much, but [filming Snow White] wasn’t our first meeting,” Zegler noted.
While it’s possible that Rachel Zegler and Gal Gadot first met one another on a separate project entirely, it makes just a little too much sense for Gal Gadot to not have a cameo in Shazam! Fury of the Gods. Of course, we might just have to wait and see what happens as we approach the film’s release date later this year.
The cast stars Asher Angel as Billy Batson, Zachary Levi as Shazam, Grace Fulton as Mary Bromfield, Adam Brody as Super Hero Freddy, Faithe Herman as Darla Dudley, Meagan Good as Super Hero Darla, Ian Chen as Eugene Choi, Ross Butler as Super Hero Eugene, Jovan Armand as Pedro Pena, D.J. Cotrona as Super Hero Pedro, Marta Milans as Rosa Vasquez, and Cooper Andrews as Victor Vasquez. The new cast members in the film also include Helen Mirren as Hespera, and Lucy Liu as Kalypso.
Fans will be able to see Shazam! Fury of the Gods in theaters on December 16.
