Asher Angel appears to have arrived on the set of DC's upcoming standalone
Shazam! film. The young actor, who
will star in the film as Billy Batson, a teenager who has the ability to transform into an adult superhero with one simple word, took to social media and shared two images on his Instagram story.
The first photo appears to be from a photo shoot on a soundstage, perhaps possibly from a promotional shoot. The actor commented "#Shazam" with two lightning belts. The other forward is much less revealing, only showcasing the DC logo alongside a sticky note that has "Films" written on it.
Of course, Asher Angel is only one half of the film's starring duo, playing Billy Batson. Once he speaks the magic word "Shazam!," he becomes an adult superhero who
will be played by Zachary Levi. Given that Shazam is the one with the cool suit and powers, it can be assumed he was also present on this shoot. If that turns out to be the case, it hopefully won't be long now before we get some sort of look at the film's two stars, and perhaps even a costume reveal.
Shazam! is set to hit theaters in 2019.
