Zachary Levi says Shazam would be “the fun one” in Justice League 2

September 3, 2019 by Samuel Brace

If Justice League 2 happens, Zachary Levi says that Shazam would definitely be the “fun one”, standing apart from the other serious characters.

Will Justice League 2 ever happen? At this point, it doesn’t look likely considering the original’s poor reception and the subsequent great success DC has found making more standalone adventures.

If Warner Bros. does decide to pull the trigger on a sequel, however, Zachary Levi definitely wants his Shazam to be apart of it and believes he would be the “fun one”. Speaking at a fan Q&A at DragonCon (via ComicBook.com), the actor said:

“I hope so. I mean, I hope there’s a Justice League 2, and I hope that Shazam is in the Justice League 2…I think that would be so much fun. The fact that I get to play a 14-year-old with superpowers is just like the coolest f—-ing job ever, and if I got to be a 14-year-old with superpowers who got to hang out with Wonder Woman and Batman, are you crazy? That’s the stupidest — it’s amazing! I would be having all the fun… It’s so fun, it’s so fun, but that’s the funnest part of it is I get to be the fun one. Everybody else is actually sexy and cool and adults and I’m like, ‘What’s going on? Are we going to save the world?’ I think Billy Batson and Peter Parker are the two closest… there’s an optimism as a youth there, a stokedness if that’s a word… to be a hero. And it’s not that it’s not dangerous or hard or whatever, but you’re like genuinely stoked to be doing it and I would, me and the Flash would be having a ball, dicking around, slapping each other and running around.”
