I think they released more footage because the audience wasn’t sold off the first trailer.

Some have even gone as far as to say that they will not be watching Shazam 2 as they feel that the trailer has already revealed everything they need to know.
Welp, I feel like I just watched the whole movie. When I don't go to see it, I watch the action scenes, and I feel like I also watched all those as well.
