March 26, 2019

While many fans took advantage of Fandango’s preview screenings this weekend, the rest of us have to wait until April 5 to watch Shazam! for ourselves. Now, New Line and Warner Bros. have released a new Shazam poster that features Billy and his superhero alter ego. “Just say the word,” reads the film’s tagline, while the lightning bolt logo silhouettes on Philadelphia’s skyline at sunset. Check it out in the gallery below!

We all have a superhero inside us, it just takes a bit of magic to bring it out. In Billy Batson’s (Asher Angel) case, by shouting out one word–SHAZAM!–this streetwise 14-year-old foster kid can turn into the adult Super Hero Shazam (Zachary Levi), courtesy of an ancient wizard. Still a kid at heart–inside a ripped, godlike body–Shazam revels in this adult version of himself by doing what any teen would do with superpowers: have fun with them! Can he fly? Does he have X-ray vision? Can he shoot lightning out of his hands? Can he skip his social studies test? Shazam sets out to test the limits of his abilities with the joyful recklessness of a child. But he’ll need to master these powers quickly in order to fight the deadly forces of evil controlled by Dr. Thaddeus Sivana (Mark Strong).

Shazam! flies into theaters on April 5. You can check the new Shazam poster out below. Then let us know what you think about it in the comment section below!
