Just as Doctor Strange foresaw in the climax of Infinity War, the Endgame is now here. If 2008's Iron Man served as the Genesis of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, then Avengers: Infinity War is its Apocalypse and Avengers: Endgame is the final judgement.

Cinema Spotlight V - David F. Sandberg (Part 3): "Shazam!"

James Wan and David F. Sandberg got their start with a popular horror short. They adapted it into a feature film, premiered with positive results, and commenced their frightening filmography. One of their films, included a creepy doll from a horror franchise that earned them more recognition. Their partnership with Warner Bros. added to that, and with the DC Extended Universe trying to recuperate, both were brought on board. James Wan's Aquaman became a success but could Sandberg deliver the same results?

Cinema Spotlight V - David F. Sandberg (Part 2): "Annabelle: Creation"
Impressed by his work on Lights Out, James Wan offered David F. Sandberg his next movie that would set in the Conjuring Universe. An offer, Sandberg was hesitant to accept seeing the bad reputation of Horror sequels. It didn't help that the proposed project would be another Anabelle movie, with the last one to star the demented doll being widely despised. But when told that it would be a standalone prequel and have little to no connection to its predecessors, he accepted.
