Zachary Levi has taken to Instagram to give the world a sneak peek of his take on Shazam. Levi posted an image from the Licensing Expo in Las Vegas, showing an advertisement for the live action film. "This! This is what dreams are made of," Levi captioned the photo of himself next to the banner. "Complete and total wish fulfillment, plus a beverage!"
The image certainly seems to convey the lightheartedness of the character, the ripped, adult-sized superhero alter ego of Billy Baston, a streetwise 14-year-old foster kid. Levi stars as Shazam, with Asher Angel as Billy. Main baddy Doctor Sivana is played by Mark Strong (see “ICv2: 'Black Panther: The Album,' 'Captain Marvel,' 'Venom,' 'Shazam!,' 'SpongeBob 3'”). Shazam! bows on April 5, 2019 (see “Best in Shows--Q2 2019”).
