BvS If the Rock were cast as Captain Marvel, who would you cast as young Billy Batson?

Rohand Chand may be a bit too young, but he was decent in Lone Survivor
 
Noah Gray Cabey?

He's 18 now though, they'll probably go younger.

It'll be some kid we've never heard of though

I hate to be that guy, but is this the right place for this discussion? There's a Shazam thread in the DC comics films section.
 
We have another Shazam thread in here for The Rock but not one considering the younger acting side. Meh
 
Even that Shazam thread doesn't belong in this section. We already have a section for Shazam.
 
LOL! Thanks :D I figured 2 years to go people would let a thread like this slide. HA!

I hope they ask Snyder some advice... Sprayberry and the little Clark were superb.

I think in mind of The Rock, Chand could be a good choice.

How would this work in future films? Would they use the same child actor getting older or change actors as he ages from childhood on? Interesting ways they could handle his aging from childhood to adulthood.
 
If rather get an unknown for young Billy Batson, bottom line is....we have no idea when the movie is coming out. All we have going for us is 2 big rumours (1. It will come out in 2016. 2. the Rock will be SHAZAM) so the best move at this exact point is not to look for a known young actor cause simply put....from the rest who's been cast.....none of us are going to get it right lol.
 
What about the child or the young guy of the life of pi?
 
I can see a resemblance. I still haven't seen that movie, was he decent in it?

I think the Sprayberry's age on MOS would be ideal.

The young guy had more screen time. But I don't think he will be the ideal for the role. The little kid didn't have much screen time.

One thing for sure is... that Billy needs to have some presence, charisma and acting on screen. Maybe they'll go to the unknown route.

This guy looks the part... anyone knows his acting?
 
That's the thing... we don't know if they are gonna put a teenager (which this guy looks good) or a kid.
