Mama Rosa has her hands complete In Shazam! Fury of the gods. The devoted adoptive mother not only cares for her young children, but also for their superhero counterparts. HollywoodLife spoke EXCLUSIVELY with Marta Milans what to expect in the highly anticipated sequel.
“She is definitely ready for a lot more than the first. She gets to know a lot more of what’s going on in the story, which is also hilarious because she finds out a lot of things she didn’t know about her kids,” Marta said. HollywoodLife. “It’s amazing. It’s wonderful. It’s funnier. I can have my one-liner, which is even more hilarious because Mama Rosa isn’t supposed to be funny.
She also revealed that Mama Rosa had what she calls the “most heartfelt moment in the sequel and the most beautiful things being said about family, home, and found family.” Mama Rosa manages to say them in a heartbreaking moment. I’m just lucky to be able to play it again and to be able to say those beautiful words. I am truly blessed.
Mama Rosa is the emotional core of the Shazam! children. Marta pointed out that even when the children grow up, they “all come back to her. She is the link that brings everyone together.
She added, “I feel like in these very confusing times, very complicated times where people feel more isolated than ever, and what social media and the current state of the world has done is the opposite of bringing people together. To be able to play a character that brings people together, which is so necessary in today’s society, and so necessary for children and young adults to feel united. It’s so clearly demonstrated in the movies through Mama Rosa that it brings me joy because I feel now more than ever, we need to reiterate the importance of family, the importance of unity, the importance to come together, where to base, and not feel lost in a world and Shazam! is it that.”
Rosa’s character had a lasting impact on Marta “in so many different ways”.

But what can I say, it’s that I’ve always been into kids all my life, and I think that’s part of why I got this role because of the connection I have with kids. eu, so I bonded so much with that character. I was also inspired by my mother, who is a Mama Rose on steroids.
Marta called her own mother a “kid whisperer” and the kids “always gravitate towards her”. The actress noted that she was “trying to emulate that as best I could, and I think Mama Rosa does that in this movie. I’m proud of that because I think people believe that she is the mother of many children. Although she is not a biological mother, she is a loving adoptive mother. You see that on screen in the first film, and I think you will see it in the sequel as well I’m proud of my work for this reason because it resonates with so many people and continues to inspire me. I think these roles resonate in people’s hearts and stay with you. If I can doing that to people is a job well done.
Looking to the future, Marta is determined to “keep telling great stories”. She will go behind the camera and make her first short film this summer in Spain. “I just want to keep inspiring people with important stories and important characters that people can relate to and be inspired by anything,” she said.
