Zachary Levi made an appearance at the CCXP Cologne convention in Germany this weekend and explained that his character and Black Adam won't meet until both Black Adam and Shazam! 2 have been released. "I can say that as far as I know, Black Adam is not going to be in the second Shazam!, because the idea is that they want to go and do a standalone Black Adam movie first," he revealed.

"And then it would kind of be, if we do a third Shazam! and a second Black Adam, kind of [parallel] like that, that’s where we would [meet]," he added, explaining that a meeting between these two needs to feel like a big deal. "Because he’s like the ultimate bad guy for Captain Marvel, Shazam. Like [Shazam and] Black Adam, they’re doppelgängers right, the evil twin to who I am."

"So that’s got to be like the final battle," he concluded.

On his official Instagram story, Sandberg revealed the original plans for how Henry Cavill would’ve factored into the cameo as Superman:

“He sat down at the table. They had a brief chat. There was a joke about [sort of] school food and then it ended with Freddy just leaning into him, and it going like, ‘I have so many questions,’ and then it cut out.”
