harmonise to contract bridge detail obtained byTMZ , Jack Dylan Grazer will take in a hefty payment of $ 150k for his use inShazam ! . The contract bridge also reveals that Grazer could take in an additional $ 200k in box - office fillip and could invite a undercut of the plastic film ’s merchandise tax income . Perhaps even more surprising , Grazer ’s wage is expect to double in the possible sequel toShazam!and will continue to double over for every entry in the enfranchisement that Grazer star in . If dead on target , it appears that Warner Bros. might be planning to keep Freddy Freeman a prominent part of their potential new film series .
Grazer ’s character Freddy eventually becomes a hero himself in the comic strip , conk by the name Captain Marvel Jr. , one of many children who make up the “ Marvel Family ” by metamorphose into adult heroes in the style that Billy Batson does . While several player have been retch as the untried versions of the Marvel Family , none of the kid have been confirm to become superheroes themselves in the movie . However , supposition is enceinte that severalactors attached to the film in unnamed roles will in fact be toy Shazam ’s team of heroes . It ’s also highly likely that if the Marvel Family is in the moving-picture show , that they ’ll be known by a unlike name , for obvious reason .
While the DCEU seems to be rethinking its direction after every motion-picture show , Justice Leaguewas quite apparently the weakest entry in the continuity thus far . Its vital and commercial-grade failureended up cost Warner Bros. millions , due mostly in part to the creative tug - of - warfare that occurred between Zack Snyder and the studio . Hopefully , though , DC has learned their object lesson , and will allowShazam!and its eclectic cast the opportunity to do the Marvel Family justice in their own fashion .
