Arrow Shazam

Have to say not really a fan of the character but it looks like he may get a movie.

This is awesome news. A great pick for a CBM as the character is very unique and "can" have widespread appeal if done right. SHAZAM has always had the potential of being a character vehemently embraced by children. I hope that they keep his innocence and downtrodden status. Reading between the lines I truly feel that Harry Potters humble, if not miserable, surroundings and upbringing is what part of the far reaching appeal of that character is/was.

This could be really great. I always thought this would make a good movie. Hopefully they get a good director and writer behind this.

Agree 1000%. That's why I can't believe that nothing's been done past the TV show.

I've seen this guy come up on forums and such when discussing a possible Shazam movie. He definitely looks the part:
