Check out the brand-new official trailer for "Shazam!," the eagerly-anticipated DC superhero comedy about an ordinary 15-year-old kid named Billy Batson (Asher Angel) who is given super powers by a mysterious ancient wizard (Djimon Hounsou). Now Billy is able to physically transform himself into an adult superhero (played here by Zachary Levi) by shouting out the name ... Shazam! We all have a superhero inside us, it just takes a bit of magic to bring it out. In Billy Batson's (Asher Angel) case, by shouting out one word -- SHAZAM! -- this streetwise 14-year-old foster kid can turn into the adult Super Hero Shazam (Zachary Levi), courtesy of an ancient wizard. Still a kid at heart -- inside a ripped, godlike body -- Shazam revels in this adult version of himself by doing what any teen would do with superpowers: have fun with them! Can he fly? Does he have X-ray vision? Can he shoot lightning out of his hands? Can he skip his social studies test? Shazam sets out to test the limits of his abilities with the joyful recklessness of a child. But he’ll need to master these powers quickly in order to fight the deadly forces of evil controlled by Dr. Thaddeus Sivana (Mark Strong). Shazam! stars Zachary Levi, Jack Dylan Grazer, Asher Angel, Mark Strong, Djimon Hounsou, Ross Butler, Adam Brody, Cooper Andrews Release: April 5th, 2019

It feels as if every month, we are reading about a DC superhero movie being developed or a DC superhero movie being canned. Forbes contributor Mark Hughes has taken a look at the future of DC Films such as Aquaman, The Flash, Suicide Squad, Birds Of Prey, Batgirl, Superman and Shazam! Warner Bros. have announced they are cashing in on Aquaman and have hired David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick to write the script for the sequel. The sequel is being produced by director James Wan and Peter Safran and have made over $328 million in North America and $784 million internationally. DC has discussed making The Flash movie based on the popularity of the TV show, but has been repeatedly delayed in the past, and recently once again slowed down and pushed back the expected start of production. This project may never get out of first gear. The Suicide Squad sequel is looking to take a whole new direction with having a new cast of characters and avoid direct tie-in to the first film's events. Harley Quinn is not expected to return, and James Gunn's script will be a new approach and rethinking of the property. The Mad Love-type Joker and Harley Quinn film has also fallen by the wayside, as has the solo Joker project for Jared Leto's version of the character from Suicide Squad. For the record, Birds of Prey and Batgirl will not be tied together, for those who mistakenly believed the rumors that Barbara Gordon would have a continuing arc through both films. And there is not a Gotham City Sirens project crossing over with Birds of Prey, despite rumors to the contrary. Hughes wanted to point out after discussing the Superman movies that Henry Cavill is not on the verge of making another Superman picture and did not film a secret cameo for Shazam!

Entertainment Weekly has revealed an official first look at Zachary Levi and Jack Dylan Grazer in DC’s Shazam! movie. In the image, we see orphaned 14-year-old Billy Batson, who can transform into a grown-up superhero with an array of powers by saying the magic word. Billy is shown on a soda run with fellow orphan Freddy Freeman. For the re-designed costume, Director David Sandberg took certain items throughout the character’s appearances in comics and animated shows. “I wanted to keep the shorter cape as a throwback to the original because that’s something that sets him apart from Superman or Batman,” the director tells sources. “It makes him feel a bit more Golden Age superhero, which is the vibe I’m going for." Shazam has a hood from DC’s 2011 “New 52” relaunch, a glowing lightning bolt that can appear across his chest and wears the gold gauntlets from one of Shazam’s animated movie appearances.
