In just a matter of months, DC fans will be treated to Shazam! Fury of the Gods, the long-awaited sequel to the 2019 superhero hit. Based on the existing trailers and promotional material, it seems like Fury of the Gods will be delivering a pretty delightful vibe — and it sounds like part of that will involve a very specific (and unintentional) pop culture nod. On Tuesday, Fury of the Gods director David F. Sandberg took to Twitter to reveal that one scene in the film features a unique piece of music, which was temporarily thrown into the film’s assembly cut. As it turns out, the music in question actually is from the score for W.E., a 2011 romantic drama directed by Madonna.
Sometimes you fall in love with a temp track. There’s one scene in Shazam 2 where I thought the temp music fit so well that we just licensed that piece instead of trying to create something similar. It’s from the score to the movie W.E. (Directed by Madonna) of all movies. https://t.co/rC7r6tRdqq
