While the global pandemic has halted all film production at the moment, Shazam 2 is rumored to begin filming in Spring 2021 in the hopes of meeting a release date of November 2022.
Shazam 2 Rumored to Begin Filming Next Year
News:Sandberg has released a fun ‘marketing’ video for Shazam 2. The video is compiled of some choice Letterboxd reviews for the unreleased film. The trailer ends with a fun logo for the sequel that shows “Shazam!!”, note the two exclamation points.
We haven't shot Shazam 2 yet but there are already reviews up on Letterboxd. I'm pretty sure that means we're allowed to start using review quotes for marketing. pic.twitter.com/q7rj528CDR

There are no indications about what Shazam 2 might follow, but Mister Mind, who was revealed at the end of the first movie, is likely to have some involvement. Dwayne Johnson’s villain movie Black Adam is also gearing up for production, but whether the two characters will crossover hasn’t been revealed yet.
Zachary Levi has been publicly promoting Shazam’s appearance at the upcoming DC FanDome on August 22nd, where hopefully more news will be revealed about the sequel.
