Director David F. Sandberg explains how the dragon in ShazamFuryOfTheGods is different from those in Game of Thrones: 'He’s made out of wood because he was born from the Tree of Life — that’s what he protects. And he can emanate fear.'
Shazam! Fury of the Gods director David F. Sandberg that the dragon featured in his upcoming DCU movie is different from dragons featured in Game of Thrones-style fantasies in one cool way. After the success of the first Shazam! in 2019, Sandberg is reuniting with star Zachary Levi for a sequel. The upcoming movie follows teenage boy Billy Batson , who has the power to turn into an adult superhero, as he faces off against the formidable Daughters of Atlas with the help of his foster family.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY As revealed in the Shazam! Fury of the Gods trailer, the titular hero will have to face off against a dragon at several points in the film. In a recent interview with Total Film , Sandberg breaks down why his dragon is different from those featured in fantasy franchises like Game of Thrones and The Hobbit. The biggest difference, by far, is that the dragon featured in Shazam! Fury of the Gods is made out of wood, Sandberg explains.
"With the dragon, it was like, 'We've seen so many dragons, in Game Of Thrones and The Hobbit and all these things, so we have to do something different.' He’s made out of wood because he was born from the Tree of Life — that’s what he protects. And he can emanate fear. If you’re standing in front of him, you won’t be able to move and he can go straight up and eat you.
The trailer for Shazam! Fury of the Gods even features Kalypso using a magical staff to grow a massive tree inside a sports stadium. The tree's roots rip up the stadium's playing field and stands, and even extend out into the streets beyond, tearing up the asphalt. With Sandberg's reveal that the dragon in Shazam! Fury of the Gods is born from the Tree of Life, it's possible that the giant tree Kalypso grows is exactly that.
What the trailer doesn't totally touch upon, however, is Sandberg's claim that the dragon has the ability to freeze his victims by emanating fear. An earlier trailer featured a scene of Shazam throwing a car at the giant beast, suggesting that Levi's hero may not be affected by this particular ability.
