While Hespera doesn't seem to have a counterpart in DC Comics, she is the daughter of the Titan Atlas in Greek mythology. That influence can be seen in the costume, with the character sporting what looks to be battle-scarred armor and an imposing headpiece. Atlas is also one of the sources of Billy's powers, with Shazam an acronym that stands for Solomon's wisdom, Hercules' strength, Atlas' stamina, Zeus' power, Achilles' courage, and Mercury's speed.
Hespera won't be the only villain taking on the Shazam family, though. She'll be joined by Kalypso, played by Lucy Liu. Like Hespera, she's also a daughter of Atlas, and, considering the official title for the sequel is Shazam! Fury of the Gods, we can guess that the duo will create a formidable challenge for Billy and co. – though, in the new images, Hesper𓃲a appears to be sitting down to eat with Billy.
Director David F. Sandberg recently unveiled the first official look ღat the Shazཧam family in their new costumes and revealed that Grace Fulton will now play both the regular and superhero versions of her character Mary. The suits are fairly similar to those from the first Shazam movie, but have some key changes: they're more textured, the shape of the ligh♌tning bolts are slightly different, and the capes are longer.
Sandberg has also said that Black Adam, who will be played by Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson in the DCEU, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:will not appear in the movie, as he has his own s🍃olo film in the works. Black Adam is slated for release in 2022 and will introduce the Justice Society of America to the big screen.
