Shazam! Captain Marvel Finds a Director!
Get Smart director Peter Segal will helm the DC comics hero Captain Marvel in a big screen adaption. He and his Callahan Films partner Michael Ewing will also play parts in two more films as part of a three picture deal with Warner Bros. (Part of the deal was to bring Captain Marvel with them…they have been working on it for two years now)
Pic tells the story of teenaged Billy Batson, who transforms into the superhero when he says the word “Shazam!”
This is gonna suck.
