It’s almost July, which means that it’s almost time forSan Diego Comic-Con. Although it’s not very far away, people are still counting the days.Shazam!directorDavid F. Sandbergappears to be just as excited as everybody else after his latest post on social media, which has led to rumors that the very first footage of the movie will debut that weekend. There have been unconfirmed reports about the first trailer forShazam!dropping at Comic-Con over the last few weeks, and now Sandberg’s latest post is prompting many to believe that those reports are true.
David F. Sandberg took to Twitter to post a doodle of himself impatiently waiting for San DiegoComic-Con. We know thatWarner Bros. and DC Filmsare going to premiere the very firstAquamantrailer that weekend and aComic-Condebut fromShazam!doesn’t seem too far off. If that does happen, it’s more than likely that it will remain exclusive for those lucky enough to be in attendance. However, at the very least, we could get a good look at Zachary Levi in the suit shared online for the first time.
In addition toAquaman, Gal Gadot is expected to make an appearance to promoteWonder Woman 1984as well. The actress is reportedly bringing a “surprise” to Comic-Con this year, which could be some very early footage from the highly anticipated sequel, or perhaps our first look at Kristen Wiig as Cheetah. The latter seems to be the most plausible since production has just started onWonder Woman 2. On the other hand,Shazam!wrapped production in the beginning of May, giving plenty of time to put together some footage to bring to Comic-Con.
Shazam!fans have been anxiously waiting to see star Zachary Levi in live-action ever since the project was announced. Leaked set photos hinted at the costume, but we weren’t able to get a decent look. And then there was the teaser poster that was shown at CinemaCon in Las Vegas back in April, but it also just gave a tiny bit of a peek. Basically, David F. Sandberg could come down to San Diego Comic-Con and show the first image of Levi in full costume and fans would probably be just as happy as seeing any footage fromShazam!
Things are starting to fire up for DC andShazam!is at the forefront at this time. David F. Sandberg’s work onAnnabelle: Creationhave many curious to see what he was able to pull off for the DC superhero. Plus, DC fans as a whole are waiting to see if Henry Cavill shows up asSupermanin the film. The actor has done a bit of teasing about the appearance over the last several months, but that obviously wouldn’t get announced at Comic-Con. If Cavill ends up having a cameo inShazam!it’ll be huge news. While we wait to see what San Diego Comic-Con has in store for everybody, you’re able to see impatient tweet below, thanks toDavid F. Sandberg’s Twitteraccount.
