Detailed SHAZAM! Trailer #2 Description Surfaces Ahead Of Its Debut Later This Month
The second trailer for Shazam! is expected to debut later this month and a lengthy description of the footage has now been revealed which sheds even more light on what to expect from the DC Comics movie.
Our first look at Shazam! arrived unexpectedly during last year's Comic-Con and while we all expected/hoped that another would be attached to Aquaman, it's now been said that the second trailer will be with us on January 19th (or at least sometime this month).
For now, though, we have a lengthy trailer description which reveals a lot more about what's to come in the DC Comics adaptation which looks set to put the DCEU on a more Marvel-lous path than ever before. It sounds like the focus will definitely be put on the action in this sneak peek but there are plenty of intriguing plot details as well.
With any luck, we'll have the actual trailer for you shortly, but this is definitely a must-read!
So, to take a look at this description, all you guys have to do is click on the "View List" button.
Apparently, the trailer kicks off with Billy Batson eating dinner with his foster family when Cooper Andrews' Victor Vazquez (his foster father) points out that a costumed superhero has appeared in Philadelphia. A montage of clips from the first trailer is then shown before we get to the new stuff.
Returning to dinner, young Darla Dudley and Pedro Pena make fun of Shazam's costume (much to Billy's disgust) before we head to the Wizard's lair and see Billy acquiring his newfound abilities.
Billy and Freddy are then shown brainstorming hero names before we see Shazam attempt to fly through the clouds. Unfortunately, he quickly begins to fall but after channelling a certain Man of Steel, he manages to catch himself before crashing into the ground below and comes to the realisation that, yes, he can indeed fly now!
Mark Strong's Dr. Sivana then makes an appearance and a battle between the villain and Shazam is show in mid-air before the action cuts to a kid playing with Batman and Superman action figures. The two collide at the same time the toys do and this child is actually humming the classic Superman theme while all of this is happening.
Shazam and Freddy are then shown at a real estate office where they are trying to find a "lair." While castles are preferable, they'd also like something overlooking water. The trailer then wraps up with Billy's fellow foster kids confronting him about being a superhero before more action scenes are shown of him in action.
Before the logo hits, Sivana asks Shazam how old he is and Billy replies, "Basically 15." It's then that we get the money shot of the hero jumping off a building as he shouts "Shazam!" and transforms into his alter-ego.
As for the stinger, it kicks off with Sivana throwing Shazam into a toy store. The hero throws a Batman toy at the villain (which misses) before ending up on a large scale piano in a pretty obvious homage to Big.
