“Shazam! Fury of the Gods” seemingly confused a lot of moviegoers with its surprise cameo featuring the return of Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman. The character appears as a deus ex mach…

. The character appears as a deus ex machina toward the end of the film, as Wonder Woman arrives on the scene to resurrect Billy Batson/Shazam from death as she is the only person left with godly powers to do so. Some shaky VFX work led to rumors that Gadot’s face was put on another actor’s body using deepfake technology, but “Shazam” director David F. Sandberg says otherwise.

Gadot can be clearly seen on one of Sandberg’s computer monitors as he directs the cameo, so that should end any speculation she was edited into the movie using deepfake technology. The rumor was fueled by “Shazam 2” set photos that featured Wonder Woman body double Taylor Cahill on the set. The images led many to believe it was Cahill that acted in the scene and not Gadot, but Sandberg also debunked that rumor.
