E! Online talks with Brandon Molale who is apparently rumored to be a contender for the lead role in 'Shazam!'
There's a lot going on. My name and The Rock are the two names. I had people contact me over a year ago about this. So I said, Hey, you know what, look. If there's any DC or Marvel character that I look like, it's this guy. The similarities are ridiculous. I said I would love to do it.Molale welcomes the opportunity, should it come his way, citing Brandon Routh's 'Superman' as similar casting of an unknown in a major role. However, he said things are still in the consideration stages.
The script hasn't even been written yet. But I'm just flattered that they're even considering me. I was shocked. They're making every comic-book movie as it is, and it's like, you know, I know my abilities as an actor. I'm a good actor. I just need someone to give me something I can sink my teeth into.He's also discussed the possibilities with the other contender: The Rock:
You know, he works out in my gym, and I've known Dwayne for years. I was in 'The Rundown' with him. So, it's, like, he's a great guy.There's a character named Black Adam in the Captain Marvel world. And he's actually evil. And [The Rock] looks a lot more like Black Adam than he does Captain Marvel. So, I would love to see him play the bad guy. You don't ever see Dwayne play the bad guy...and who doesn't want to be the villain?!Lots more!
