Shazam movie independent from DC's Cinematic Universe: Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson

One of the Warner Bros. / DC movies slated to be released in the coming years, is Shazam, with Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson starring as Black Adam. Since the film's announcement, fans have been wondering if it will be a part of the DC Cinematic Universe. It now appears as if that is not the case.

The Rock recently responded to a question from a fan on Twitter about whether or not Shazam will be a film that is serious in tone or fun for the whole family. Johnson responded by saying that the film will be bad-ass and fun, then he hash-tagged 'Independence.'
