According to Production Weekly, Shazam! is preparing to return to Toronto for almost three weeks of reshoots, which will commence on November 1st.

Along with the usual speculation that this additional photography is being scheduled to "fix" something about the movie, the news has reignited hope that Henry Cavill may fly by for that long-rumored Superman cameo. While certainly possible, this is highly unlikely for several reasons.

Though yet to be officially confirmed, trade reports indicate that Cavill is done with the role. Plus, even if the British actor does surprise us all and return to play The Man of Steel, he will most likely be filming his scenes for Netflix's The Witcher adaptation by the time Shazam! reshoots are underway.

In related news, Grace Randolph is reporting that Wonder Woman 1984 was pushed back 7 months because Warner Bros. is retooling it as Flashpoint... or something. We're not buying it, but have a look at the vid and see what you make of it.

“We all have a superhero inside us, it just takes a bit of magic to bring it out. In Billy Batson’s (Angel) case, by shouting out one word—SHAZAM!—this streetwise 14-year-old foster kid can turn into the adult Super Hero Shazam (Levi), courtesy of an ancient wizard. Still a kid at heart—inside a ripped, godlike body—Shazam revels in this adult version of himself by doing what any teen would do with superpowers: have fun with them! Can he fly? Does he have X-ray vision? Can he shoot lightning out of his hands? Can he skip his social studies test? Shazam sets out to test the limits of his abilities with the joyful recklessness of a child. But he’ll need to master these powers quickly in order to fight the deadly forces of evil controlled by Dr. Thaddeus Sivana (Strong).”

Shazam! is set to hit theaters on April 5, 2019.

2 things:

1. Cavill is about to begin shooting for Witcher

2. Grace Randolph knows jackshit. She has zero inside information or influence. I have more inside information than Grace. She’s the female Elmayimbe. Didn’t she say how Disney set up a meeting with Marvel & Pixar to think of how to get Kathleen Kennedy out & then weeks later, Kennedy got a 4 year deal? Y’all need to not listen to Grace Randolph. She claims Batman v Superman is the Shining of comic book films. The [frick]ing Shining

Wonder Woman got pushed back because WB doesn’t have any major 2020 summer blockbuster films besides Kong vs Godzilla. WB likes having at least 2 major blockbusters our during the summer. Another factor was Star Wars in December & WB likely not wanting Wonder Woman 1984 to be in a crammed schedule like Aquaman currently is

Grace Randolph...

Whatever’s going on, I’m hyped for both.

@regularmovieguy - Grace Randolph is talking shit?

Roodi - 10/24/2018, 9:02 AM

@regularmovieguy - lol nevermind. Didn't finish reading.

regularmovieguy - 10/24/2018, 9:06 AM

@Roodi

Lmao 😂 she is something

Roodi - 10/24/2018, 9:10 AM

@regularmovieguy - Yeah. After the Instagram pick of Shazam I thought the article was over and scrolled straight to the comments. Didn't know it had that extra Randolph bit.

That Superman cameo ain't happening.

And Grace Rnadolph doesn't know what she's talking about 80% of the time.

LEVITIKUZ - 10/24/2018, 8:51 AM

@BlindWedjat - only 80%? Try 99%
