Black Adam was supposed to have a post-credits scene featuring Zachary Levi's Shazam, rather than Henry Cavill's Superman.

The Wrap reports that Dwayne Johnson "privately vetoed" a planned post-credits scene in Black Adam which would have seen Shazam recruited for the Justice Society of America – this is the scene we instead see in the mid-credits of Shazam! Fury of the Gods, albeit with different DC characters doing the recruiting. In fact, Shazam 2 director David F. Sandberg has said the Justice Society were supposed to appear in the scene, but it all "fell apart" a few days before filming.

 The Black Adam post-credits scene instead sees Henry Cavill's Superman come out of the mist and tell Johnson's titular hero that the two "should talk."
