DC's 'Shazam!' to Star Zachary Levi

quote:

Zachary Levi is going to be Earth's mightiest mortal. The actor will star in the DC comic book adaptation Shazam!, which follows a boy named Billy Batson, who can transform into an adult superhero by uttering the magic word "Shazam!" 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.

He'll be good for the comedic tone, but he'll need to bulk up to look the part.

Could be solid, but he needs to live in the gym for while.

Especially if they plan on putting him up against the Rock as Black Adam at any point.

Guessing he's on the phone with Chris Pratt's trainer as we speak.

Though it's better if he's beefy and not cut.

Nice casting, but yeah he has a lot of gym time ahead of him.

I guess there are worse things to be paid to do.

Batfleck is a naturally big guy, by Hollywood standards. Go back to Dazed and Confused and see how much bigger than the rest of the cast he was. As he got older it wouldn't be difficult for him to get jacked with a little help from the lab.

That is awesome news. Love that dude. He went for the Starlord role and lost it to Pratt so I'm sure he's ready to do what it takes to blow this out the water.

Levi would have to be jacked like Henry Cavill was for Superman to pull this off, which may not be that far fetched.

He’s a big nerd and has struck out for a few roles so I’m glad for him. Like Pratt and Chris Evans he seems like a genuinely good dude.

Didn't he get pretty big for his role in Thor?

ETA: doesn't look like it

His last name is Pugh, he's from Lake Charles and a very devout Christian...but don't let ignorance stop you.

Not a cheese fest when you’re 8 years old. Plus, ISIS was hot.
