Mega hit in the making. Justin Bieber as Billy Batson and Tim Tebow as Captain Marvel. Should gross over 100 million.

There was a live action series and an animated series.

A younger Brendan Fraser would've made a good Captain Marvel. Jerry O'Connell did a good job voicing the character on the JLU series. He'd have made a good live action version as well.

And The Rock as Black Adam. That's a no-brainer.

Rob Lowe voiced DC Captain Marvel his first 2 appearances on Young Justice, then passed it on to his brother Chad Lowe.

Average Joe Moviegoer isn't going to line up at the theatres for a movie called Shazam.



yeah, sounds too much like this.




I'd rather see a legit Swamp Thing.

because hes a blander version of superman. marvel has cool heroes with unique powers. captain marvel would be a waste




true, but the appeal of Shazam/captain marvel is the aspect that he's actually a little boy.

I think you could include him in a larger DCU, but DC has made a point of neutering that character since they bought him.
