No, you're thinking of Kazaam.

The article is talking about the 2023 film "Shazam! Fury of the Gods", a sequel to the 2019 film based on the DC Comics character.

Unless I'm missing a joke here...

David F. Sandberg got death threats from DC fans after 'Shazam 2', almost quit IP movies: "A lot of that stresses me out so much and it will be nice not having to think about that anymore." (www.gamesradar.com)
 

"I mean, to be honest, fans can get very, very crazy and very angry with you. You can get, like, death threats and everything so after [Shazam! Fury of the Gods], I was like, 'I never wanna do another IP-based movie because it's just not worth it,'" Sandberg continues candidly.

Summary

One year after her sister Melanie mysteriously disappeared, Clover and her friends head into the remote valley where she vanished in search of answers. Exploring an abandoned visitor center, they find themselves stalked by a masked killer and horrifically murdered one by one... only to wake up and find themselves back at the beginning of the same evening. Trapped in the valley, they're forced to relive the night again and again -- only each time the killer threat is different, each more terrifying than the last. Hope dwindling, the group soon realizes they have a limited number of deaths left, and the only way to escape is to survive until dawn.
