Actor Zachary Levi, who starred in the recently released Shazam! Fury of Gods said that he agreed to be part of the film before even reading the script. 

According to Levi, amped-up action, new worlds, stakes of mythological proportion, a roster of aspirational heroes, exceedingly menacing villains and a signature brand of humour made him sign on for David F Sandberg's directorial. 

"I thoroughly enjoyed the pitch before I even got to read the script!. When David and Henry told me what the whole concept of the second movie was going to be, I was in," he said.

"I thought, these are great ingredients for building a really wonderful sequel to what we had already created, so I was very excited about that and about getting back together with all of the cast and crew I loved so much, and it's just a really fun role to play. I mean, I get to be a Super Hero and a really fun one at that," Levi added.
