Only the second movie on as Fandral. First film was Prince Charming from Once whom I thought was better IMO. I'm wondering about this choice but often in the comic movies the questionable ones lead to cool results. I'm WAY behind on this DC cinematic run but Rock being in it means I won't skip it. Last I heard they were hmming and hawing about Rock being in it instead of being in a solo Black Adam movie instead... Oh I just assumed Rock was in this one, I forgot about the solo project.

What?!!? Josh Dallas was in Thor 1? How did I miss that? Now on one hand, Gal Gadot was called too small and she did all right. On the other hand is Topher Grace, Brandon Routh...

I'm not familiar with him, but here's hopin. But yeah, he definitely has to start hitting the weights. He was Fandral of the Warriors 3 in Thor. and Chuck from... Chuck Weren't there two Fandrals? Unfamiliar with Chuck.

No comment on his casting as Captain Marvel, but I did like Josh Dallas better as Fandral.

I like Fandral as a character, but honestly in the movies neither guy made an impression on me, so I can't say if he'd make a good Big Red Cheese or not.

I know its been said and I also know why it sounds stupid but Super Cena as the big red cheese could work really well. He could easily embody all the child like wonder that should be expected for when a child billy becomes earths mightiest mortal. Unless they're doing the stupid Billy and Captain Marvel swap places thing because I hate that

Never forget though that Michael Keaton is still the best Batman there ever was.
Ya never know how these things are gonna go.

He can bulk up. Being able to believably play the character is most important, and I think Zachary Levi will be phenomenal in that role. He's very charismatic and likeable, and basically already played a big kid on Chuck.

I will say in the above photos that facially he definitely looks the part with the grin and whatnot. I see Cap bein a smiler.

Zach just seems wrong build wise for this type of character. Eh his look alike and similar counterpart John Kransiski bulked up recently. Or Bradley Cooper another guy similar to his build has bulked up. Chris Hemsworth, Chris Evans, and Henry Cavill would qualify for 205 Live. It's easier to convert mass (fat) into mass (muscle) like Pratt but there's plenty of Hollywood Trainers, money, diets, movie lighting, and turning the gym into a full time job in Hollywood.

yeah I'll allow it. he can bulk up and actually has the acting chops to pull the big red cheese aspects off. a lot more goes into these decisions than "welll he looks like the exaggerated comic character". if people took that tack with these casting decisions we would've gotten Brock Lesnar as Venom and Triple H as Thor, which both would've been horrible (don't lie to yourself, it would've been).

Guess he is playing the Billy Batson parts My mate texted me earlier about the news and this was the exact same joke I made ha......that and he better him the gym I hope physically he can do it. It’s one thing to get muscular but going from how he is current to Shazam is another thing entirely I loved the dude in Chuck, so here’s hoping

Honestly I'm actually shocked on how many of the big jacked actors are actually pretty small 205lb and under dudes. All that movie lightning and shooting the shirtless scenes where the actor is purposely dehydrated with a pump making them look like heavy weights. Like most of the fit skinny actors are just guys who eat healthy and do plenty of cardio and some light weight work. When they get jacked it's just a shit ton of clean eating, powders, and lifting heavier weights doing heavier exercises. The diets and exercises are just more exagerated because have to put on tons of weight in a small amount of time and lose it for the next movie role. Like Zachary Taylor getting jacked like Chris Evans or Hemsworth in a shirt period of time is easy, getting big like The Rock or Arnie is flatout impossible unless you have god tier genetics and roids.
