Recent Updates?

The trailer for the upcoming non-DCEU Shazam! movie is rumoured to be heading to Comic Con even though it doesn't release until early 2019 and Aquaman hasn't even had one yet.

The film is very much in its final stages, with Zachary Levi showing off his in-costume look fairly recently and much more information expected from Hall H this summer. But we do know that it will have a wildly different tone to the DCEU and the synopsis definitely reiterates that:

"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)."

Will It Happen?

It definitely is.
