First Official Look at Levi as Shazam…Kinda

3919

If you’ve been reading BOF regularly over the last few months, you know I’m awesome.  Besides that, you also know that I’ve been pretty darn critical of Warner Bros. for not releasing a proper image of Zachary Levi as, um, Shazam (He’ll always be Captain Marvel to me dadgummit!) before they started filming on location.  Alas, they did not, and the first — and only to date — images of Levi in costume have come via crappy cell phone pics and video.

Until now…sorta.

Via his official Instagram page, Levi posted a pic of himself standing next to either the first Shazam (Captain Marvel!) poster for SHAZAM!, or a standee for the movie.  This took place at Licensing Expo 2018 in Las Vegas which commences tomorrow.  Check it out…

OK, that’s cool and all, but is Mr. Levi not only the star of the film, but in charge of it’s publicity as well?

It seems that we’re finally going to get the first legit look at SHAZAM! in the next few days, probably…maybe?

Anyway, if you’ve also been reading BOF of late, you know that I’m very, Very, VERY much excited for this film.

And is it just me, or they totally going for a BIG vibe in that pic above?  Talk about it all in the comments section below!  – Bill “Jett” Ramey

Bill “Jett” Ramey isn’t just a Batman fan — he’s one of the founding fathers of the online Batman community. As the creator and Editor-in-Chief of Batman-On-Film.com, the original and longest-running Batman news and commentary site, Jett helped carve the very bedrock of modern fan internet press. If there is a Mount Rushmore of this stuff, his face is already up there — sunglasses on, arms crossed, probably telling someone to calm down. A lifelong Dark Knight disciple, Jett has spent decades championing filmmaker‑driven Batman stories, cutting through fanboy noise with a Texas‑sized dose of honesty, and keeping the conversation smart, civil, and drama‑free. He’s the BOF Godfather — the guy who was here before the hashtags, before the clickbait, before the algorithms… and he’s still here, still talking Batman, still calling it straight. When he steps out of Gotham, Jett is pure Texas. He bleeds Dallas Cowboys blue, blasts Elvis and rock ’n’ roll, and has a deep appreciation for cold beer, dive bars, and Texas Longhorns football. He works out, he cooks, and he can grill like a man who’s earned the right to say “don’t assume” when he tells you he lives in the great state of Texas. He shares that home with his wife — “Announcer Rachel” — and their dogs: Gracelin the Labradoodle and Presley, a rescue pup named after the King himself.
