Shazam! It was a solid superhero hit for DC so there was no doubt that a sequel would be on the way. The sequel brings pretty solid star power with the likes of Helen Mirren. Lucy Liu and Rachel Zegler join the cast. during the new Shazam! appearance of the sequel at the recent San Diego Comic-Con Mirren was very excited about the super-powered women facing Shazam and said the new film has “vaginal power” and while star Zachary Levi may have a hard time using that phrase, it doesn’t contradict the sentiment.
Helen Mirren was unable to attend the recent SDCC in person, but addressed the crowd gathered on the screen alongside. Shazam: Fury of the gods co-star Rachel Zegler , Mirren commented that she, Zegler and Lucy Liu had become friends during production and commented on the “pussy power” of the film. Talk with yahoo After the panel, Zachery Levi agreed atlas girls brings exactly that into the new movie, saying …
I don’t know if this was the terminology I was putting into my head, just trying to be respectful of course. But I totally agree, since this is her terminology … 100%, this is what she and Lucy bring to the table in spades.
Zachary Levi says he wouldn’t necessarily use the same language as Helen Mirren because he wanted to be respectful. I’m not sure anyone has a problem with that. If Zachary Levi had said the movie had “vaginal power”, people would probably have a problem with that. Helen Mirren, on the other hand, is free to say so. Helen Mirren is free to say what she wants, she is Helen Mirren and the world is lucky to have her.
While hearing Helen Mirren speak like this may have been somewhat surprising to Comic-Con audiences, apparently it shouldn’t have been for the team and launch Shazam: Fury of the gods . Apparently, Mirren had been like this from the moment she walked onto the set. Director David F. Sandberg claims that Mirren even used the exact same phrase when she started filming. Sandberg explained …
This is Helen Mirren’s joy. Because it’s like, ‘Oh, this is Dame Helen Mirren, so you think she’s going to be like the queen or something.’ But then she said the first time she was on set. She and Lucy entered the set and she yelled, “The power of the pussy is here!” Oh ok, great!
Although Dame Helen Mirren has played the queen and a host of other very formal and serious roles, she clearly enjoys being a part of the blockbuster action movie scene. He has become an integral part Fast & Furious franchise specifically after saying how much he wanted to be in those movies. Now Mirren could have done badly in a superhero movie also, as well.
