Shazam 2: Did you spot the Annabelle doll in the DC movie trailer?

The trailer for “Shazam! The Rage of the Gods,” released this Saturday, July 23, at Comic-Con in San Diego and then online, contains an Easter egg that didn’t go unnoticed: a cameo by the evil doll Annabelle.

Is Annabelle the hidden star of the DC movies? After appearing in Aquaman and the first Shazam!, the famously evil puppet from the Conjuring-verse will return for a cameo in the sequel. And we didn’t have to wait until the feature film “Wrath of the Gods” hits our theaters on December 21, as it reveals itself from the trailer when the hero discovers that he is not a shrink, but a pediatrician. whose table contains several toys.

Therefore, among them is Annabelle, who seems to be looking at the figure of Batman. The doll seen at the bottom of the sea in Aquaman was pawned in the first part of the hero’s adventures, played by Asher Angel and Zachary Levy. So we have to believe that she has caught the eye of a pediatrician (PJ Byrne) who is clearly unaware of all the trouble she is causing.

Aside from rights issues, the films are all produced and distributed by Warner, Annabelle’s existence can also be explained by the filmography of the directors who produced her: before taking the plunge with Aquaman, James Wan had the first scene in The Conjuring, which gave rise to the spinoff Annabelle. And the second opus, Creation of Evil, signed David F. Sandberg, to whom we owe two Shazams ever since.

It remains to be seen if Annabelle will appear in Aquaman 2, subtitled The Lost Kingdom, which is still being directed by James Wan and is now slated for release on March 15, 2023.
