The name is an acronym of the ancient world gods and historical figures Solomon, Hercules, Atlas, Zeus, Achilles and Mercury, from which the big Batson derives his heroic attributes when in adult form.


Black Adam also gets his powers from the word Shazam, except in his case, it's from the Egyptian Gods.

This casting news is great as well. Strong can actually make Sivana a less laughable villain. Somewhere along the lines of the Kingdom Come version would be great. I still love the Kingdom Come Luthor as well. It will all be in the tone though- but the casting has my hopes up.

But it's

Wisdom strength stamina power courage speed.

I don't care how much WWIII gets maligned seeing Black Adam cut loose was great.

Cautiously optimistic. Though the supposed casting of Mark Strong as Sivana is a bit of a miss for me. As good an actor as he is he is too large and physical to be Dr Sivana. Sivana is more of a stereotypical weakling mad scientist geek. Strong is a 6'2 jacked dude with a booming voice would would be much better suited to playing a character like Captain Nazi or Ibac. He could probably do killer voice work as Mr Mind as well.

Latest press release from New Line Cinema:
quote:

"We all have a superhero inside us, it just takes a bit of magic to bring it out. In Billy Batson’s (Angel) case, by shouting out one word - Shazam! - this streetwise 14-year-old foster kid can turn into the adult Super Hero Shazam (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 (Strong)."
quote:

the adult Super Hero Shazam
As predicted, it looks like they will not be using the Captain Marvel name. With all of the changes with Freddy and Mary in the comics, no telling what they'd be called.

inside a ripped, godlike body
Not too much pressure on Levi.
