'Shazam' Will Be A 'Big' Comic Book Movie

    August 29, 2007
Source: moviesblog.mtv.com

Screenwriter John August told MTV Movies Blog that his vision for 'Shazam' is very different from, "the other flying people in tights movies. It's not 'Spider-Man' plus jokes. There's really good comic potential there." Aside from the comic book roots, the writer admitted that there's definite influence from the hit movie 'Big', which starred Tom Hanks as a boy who is magically transformed into a man."Yeah, I avoid saying that because that incenses certain people," August said. "But the people that are going to go see this movie opening weekend are going to be excited to see [action and comedy] together."August has likely turned in his draft of 'Shazam' to the studio.
