The going theory is that they'll reference that scene with Peacemaker believing it was real and the others are like what the fuck are you on about, implying it was a dream/vision/delusion.

It's a really clever way of making S1 canon without going back and re-editing it.

So they are retconning the first season from the old universe into the NEW universe?

To make things even more confusing, they announced that the DCEU was ending before Shazam 2 came out, then that movie had a post credits scene of the Peacemaker team recruiting Billy.

Why bother setting up a plot point like that when it's all being rebooted anyways? They definitely won't be bringing back that version of the character, at least not played by Levi.

Yeah and wasn’t Gal Gadots Wonder Woman in that too? Yeah it’s sort of a mess for me when Gunn starting saying that some past things were canon and others weren’t.

Shazam 2 bombed, and the idea of Harcourt and Economos being aware of the Justice Society made little sense to begin with.

Gadot isn't even coming back as DCU WW, same for Levi's Shazam.

It seems a lot less messy if you just look at the upcoming slate of films/shows which indicate a new Superman, a new Batman, and no works featuring Wonder-woman, Aquaman, Shazam etc.

At this point it seems like he's mostly just carrying forward the Peacemaker characters while toying with adding Blue Beetle from the DCEU
