SHAZAM!: Get Your First Official Look At Asher Angel As Billy Batson In This Latest Image
Yet another official still from David Sandberg's Shazam! has been released online, and this one gives us our first glimpse of Asher Angel as young Billy Batson, hanging out with his pal Freddy Freeman...
We've seen a couple of official (and a lot of unofficial) photos of Zachary Levi as The Big Red Cheese, but this latest image from the Shazam! movie gives us a look at the hero's teenage alter-ego, Billy Batson (Asher Angel).
The still features Batson hanging out with his best friend Freddy (Jack Dylan Grazer), but what's visible in the background of the pic may turn out to be of greater interest!
The Superman and Batman memorabilia may lead you to conclude that Shazam! exists outside of regular DCEU continuity, but to the right of Billy we can see a Daily Planet newspaper clipping with the headline "Superman is Back," which obviously suggests that this film takes place in the same universe as Justice League.
Head on over to EW to hear from the DC movie's young stars, and be sure to keep an eye on CBM for more Shazam! goodies as we head towards San Diego Comic-Con this weekend.
