Captain Marvel 的真身是一個叫 Billy Batson的小孩
年幼的Billy 因為父母雙亡, 要叔叔照顧,還要和妹妹分開
可惜佢叔叔唔係好人,強佔左福利金之外,仲趕左Billy 出街
流落街頭的Billy ,只有賣報紙維持生計生活在車站出入口附近
某下雨天,一個雨樓陌生人出現在Billy 眼前,並帶Billy 去搭地鐵
上了一卡無人駕駛的列車,到達了Shazam 巫師的山洞
Shazam 巫師選擇了Billy 成為維護善良的"strongest and mightiest man in the world — Captain Marvel!"
而Shazam 一詞包括6位神名縮寫 S- for the wisdom of Solomon H - for the strength of Hercules A - for the stamina of Atlas Z - for the power of Zeus A - for the courage of Achilles M - for the speed of Mercury

Zachary Levi is going to be Earth's mightiest mortal.
The actor will star in the DC comic book adaptation Shazam!, which follows a boy named Billy Batson, who can transform into an adult superhero by uttering the magic word "Shazam!" The name is an acronym of the ancient world gods and historical figures Solomon, Hercules, Atlas, Zeus, Achilles and Mercury, from which the big Batson derives his heroic attributes when in adult form.
David F. Sandberg is directing Shazam! for New Line. The studio is high on Sandberg and sees him as a homegrown talent after putting out his first feature Lights Out in 2016, and releasing the director's Annabelle: Creation, the latest installment of The Conjuring universe. The $15 million horror sequel has earned a big $303 million worldwide since opening in August.
Sandberg is directing Shazam! from a screenplay by Henry Gayden and Darren Lemke. Annabelle: Creation producer Peter Safran is reuniting with Sandberg for the film, and is also producing DC's Aquaman for Warner Bros.
This is a big move for New Line and Levi, who is known for comedic roles, and starred in NBC's hit spy-comedy series Chuck from 2007-2012. He also has superhero credentials and can be seen next week in Marvel Studios' Thor: Ragnarok as Fandral, one of Thor's companions. He also recently appeared in NBC's Heroes Reborn and the network's Eva Longoria comedy Telenovela.
Other actors in the mix for the role in the last few months have included John Cena, who met with the director, and more recently Derek Theler (star of ABC Family's Baby Daddy), Zane Holtz (From Dusk Til Dawn: The Series), Billy Magnussen, and Jake McDorman, the star of TV's Limitless.
Heat Vision first reported in July that Shazam! will be the next DC Cinematic Universe movie to film, ahead of the Flashpoint, Joss Whedon's Batgirl and the Suicide Squad sequel, which recently attached Accountant director Gavin O’Connor. No release date for Shazam! is set but New Line is eying a February 2018 start in Toronto.
The film is being developed concurrently with a film focusing on Shazam villain Black Adam to star Dwayne Johnson.

After months of seeing Zachary Levi as Shazam in set photos and promotional banners, Warner Bros. has finally released an official still photo from the movie. Entertainment Weekly revealed the photo and spoke to Shazam director David Sandberg about the costume.
“I wanted to keep the shorter cape as a throwback to the original because that’s something that sets him apart from Superman or Batman,” Sandberg said. “It makes him feel a bit more Golden Age superhero, which is the vibe I’m going for.”
Shazam hits theaters on April 5, 2019. We should be seeing more from the movie next week at San Diego Comic-Con.
What do you think of the Shazam costume now that we have an official look? Let me know in the comments below.
