The ‘American Underdog’ actor was looking forward to working with DJ in a DC movie. Shazam and Black Adam have a long history in comics and so many want to see it in the movies.

However, the WWE legend rejected the offer to work in the Shazam sequel. Also, he was the one who said Black Adam should have a solo movie. Thus, the arch-rivals have to wait to meet on the big screen.

Also, it seems Safran and Gunn might have future plans for Levi. After Shazam! Fury of the Gods it is unclear whether or not he will return. Nevertheless, the 42-year-old has had no interaction with characters in DC until now, so he might continue the role in the future.
