Ever since the release of the first teaser back in July fans have been clamouring for more Shazam! footage. That first teaser debuted alongside the first trailer for Aquaman. That movie has since released a second, extended look and a new behind-the-scenes featurette.
With Shazam! back in Toronto for reshoots the movie is back in the forefront of fans minds. Many on social media have asked director David F. Sanberg when we can expect the next trailer for the movie. Last night Sanberg responded to one fan with a perfect explanation which you can read below.
Never!!!
Or when it’s ready. One of the two.
Vfx takes time and while trailers never have finished vfx the internet has a tendency to not be forgiving. https://t.co/8s17r9n0PT

Just to tide you over here’s a refresher of that first trailer…
We all have a superhero inside us, it just takes a bit of magic to bring it out. In Billy Batson’s (Angel) case, by shouting out one word—SHAZAM!—this streetwise 14-year-old foster kid can turn into the adult Super Hero Shazam (Levi), courtesy of an ancient wizard.Still a kid at heart—inside a ripped, godlike body—Shazam revels in this adult version of himself by doing what any teen would do with superpowers: have fun with them! Can he fly? Does he have X-ray vision? Can he shoot lightning out of his hands? Can he skip his social studies test? Shazam sets out to test the limits of his abilities with the joyful recklessness of a child. But he’ll need to master these powers quickly in order to fight the deadly forces of evil controlled by Dr. Thaddeus Sivana (Strong).
Shazam! also stars Jack Dylan Grazer (“IT”) as Billy’s best friend and ultimate superhero enthusiast, Freddy, part of the foster family that includes Mary, played by Grace Fulton (“Annabelle: Creation”); Darla, played by Faithe Herman (TV’s “This is Us”); Eugene, played by Ian Chen (TV’s “Fresh Off the Boat”); and Pedro, played by Jovan Armand (TV’s “Hawaii Five-O”). Cooper Andrews (TV’s “The Walking Dead”) and Marta Milans (TV’s “Killer Women”) play foster parents Victor and Rosa Vasquez, with Ron Cephas Jones (“This is Us”) as the Wizard.
Christopher Godsick, Jeffrey Chernov, Dwayne Johnson, Dany Garcia and Hiram Garcia are serving as executive producers.
