Shazam The Billy Batson/Shazam casting thread

[rogue trooper]

Krasinski and Hammer are so far the best choices, but how about Benjamin Walker?

He's certainly my favorite choice of those three names.

 

[lonewriter]

C.J. Adams - Billy Bateson \ Kellan Lutz - Shazam

 

[Airwings]

CJ Adams - decent choice
But I prefer Isaac

 

[BH/HHH]

I actually think we're he younger Jerry O'Connell would have been a great choice for live action.

 

[BH/HHH]

LOL guys chill...Theler is easily the best choice for the role...he has the size, charisma and charm needed to play Shazam

Who is he?

 

[superboy13]

Except Brandon Molale. He's got big muscles and can def pull off the man-child role.

Isn't he 45 and basically bald now?

 

[Lobo]

I actually think we're he younger Jerry O'Connell would have been a great choice for live action.

He or Fraser in his hay day would have been ideal

 

[BH/HHH]

He or Fraser in his hay day would have been ideal

Brendan Fraser? You know I'm not the biggest fan of him but he would have made a great Shazam/Captain Marvel.

 

[terry78]

Was watching Grimm last night and considered David Giuntoli, but I think I want him as Nathan Drake.

 

[Clark-Kent]

Brendan Fraser? You know I'm not the biggest fan of him but he would have made a great Shazam/Captain Marvel.

That's actually not a bad idea.

 

[Wheels]

He looks old and he's got one of the worst bald spots ever now.

 

[BH/HHH]

Yeah not now but as the original poster said back in his hay day

 

[Zoom]

Not even in his ''best''days. The guy is a terrible actor.

 

[Lobo]

That is incorrect.

 

[Rodrigo90]

In a matter of opinion

 

[HighFivingMF]

He looks old and he's got one of the worst bald spots ever now.

I don't want him to be Shazam. But Hollywood has people who specifically have the job of putting together fake hair for actors.

 

[ernesth100]

Tom Welling is at the top of my wish list...but that's fantasy land

 

[jokesonm3]

 

[sportjames23]

I'm telling you all--Kellan Lutz. He'd be perfect for the role.

 

[Jordacar]

I admit, it'd be amusing to see both of last year's Hercules fight it out.

 

[aNarcHy2day]

But that is where the amusement will end though.

I'll be brutally honest- I don't rate Lutz or, before he is brought up, Alan Ritchson at all. They are invited to prove me wrong nonetheless.

 

[Rodrigo90]

John Krasinski lookin' decent these days...

 

[superboy13]

Krasinski has always been my first choice but, if not him, how about his The Office and 13 Hours co-star David Denman? He's a solid 6'4", has the look and the charm.

 

[ernesth100]

Looks a bit old.

 

[Young Superman]

Derek Theler for Shazam. He's 6′ 5″, buff, and can act.
