so zachary levi has also been let go from playing his dc character. this is happening with pretty much every dceu actor, cavill lost superman, momoa lost aquaman, gadot lost wonderwoman.
i'm guessing asher is also most likely no longer playing billy batson either

Not even most likely. He's gone, 100% just like the rest of them.
A shame, Shazam was the only role where I actually seen Asher show he can act, I guess he is back to Disney/Nickelodeon type of shows movies

To be fair, he had likely aged out of the role anyway.

All DCEU IPs are being reworked, there will likely be more movies of all the characters, just not with the current cast.
I figured there would have been at least one more Shazam movie with the current cast.
meh. It sucks that WB and DC was so inept they didn't know what to do in the first place.
I'm not exactly sure they'll get it right this time no matter how good Gunn is. Can that CEO be hands off? Unlikely.

- Zi19,
not saying I doubt you, I agree that this is very likely. But I haven't seen this news confirmed anywhere. The only one who's been confirmed to be replaced is Cavill. Do you have any sources for Levi, Momoa, and Gadot?
They are doing a full reboot, which will setup a new DC universe using the Flash movie. You'll hear more next year, as the last slate of old DCEU movies gets released. There is some chance they won't cut everyone and everything... Shazam may survive as it hasn't really connected to the DCEU at all, except for a faceless Superman cameo. It is very likely Peacemaker will continue in the new DC universe too.
Since James Gunn is cancelling everything but his own shit yeah its pretty much certain shazam is over lol
the new guys in charge of the dceu want a full reboot. no one is surviving. doesn't mean they won't still end up in the dceu, but they're not gonna be playing the characters we know. there's rumors they want momoa to play lobo.
shazam might come back, but it won't be with levi, and likely not with asher either, it'll be different actors.
basically, the characters are likely to stay, and more characters are likely to be added, but the actors are the ones changing.
i think batman is the only one not affected by this because robert pattinson's batman isn't connected to the dceu.
so he's the only one that's assumed to be safe. everyone else, full reboot. which likely means another series of origin story movies to introduce the new actors playing those characters

TBH, it really depends on how Shazam does when finally released. Regardless of everything else, if the movie does well, they will find a way to continue the story.
