Shazam!<\/b><\/i> is a 2019 American superhero film<\/a> based on the DC Comics<\/a> character of the same name<\/a>. Produced by New Line Cinema<\/a> and distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures<\/a>, it is the seventh installment in the DC Extended Universe<\/a> (DCEU). Directed by David F. Sandberg<\/a> from a screenplay by Henry Gayden, and a story by Gayden and Darren Lemke<\/a>, the film stars Asher Angel<\/a> as Billy Batson, a teenage boy who can transform into an adult superhero, played by Zachary Levi<\/a>. Mark Strong<\/a>, Jack Dylan Grazer<\/a>, and Djimon Hounsou<\/a> also star. It is the first live-action film version of the character since the 1941 serial Adventures of Captain Marvel<\/a><\/i> (the character’s original name). Development of a live-action Shazam!<\/i> film began at New Line in the early 2000s, but was delayed for many years. The film went into pre-production in 2008 with director Peter Segal<\/a> and writer John August<\/a>, and Dwayne Johnson<\/a> considered to star as the villain Black Adam<\/a>,[5]<\/a><\/sup>[6]<\/a><\/sup> but the project fell through. William Goldman<\/a>, Alec Sokolow<\/a>, Joel Cohen<\/a>, Bill Birch, and Geoff Johns<\/a>, among others, were all attached to the project as writers at various points. The film was officially announced in 2014, with Johnson attached to star as either Shazam or Black Adam.[7]<\/a><\/sup> He would later be cast in January 2017 to lead a solo Black Adam<\/i> development project.[8]<\/a><\/sup> Sandberg signed on to direct Shazam!<\/i> in February 2017 and Levi was cast that October with Angel joining the following month. Principal photography<\/a> began in Toronto<\/a>, Ontario<\/a>, Canada on January 29, 2018, with most of the film shot at Pinewood Toronto Studios<\/a>, and wrapped<\/a> on May 11, 2018.<\/p>\n

We all have a superhero inside of us — it just takes a bit of magic to bring it out. In 14-year-old Billy Batson’s case, all he needs to do is shout out one word to transform into the adult superhero Shazam. Still a kid at heart, Shazam revels in the new version of himself by doing what any other teen would do — have fun while testing out his newfound powers. But he’ll need to master them quickly before the evil Dr. Thaddeus Sivana can get his hands on Shazam’s magical abilities.<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/span><\/p>\n
