UPDATE: Shazam! director David F. Sanberg has confirmed on Twitter that we won’t be seeing a trailer for the movie today. In fact he’s not sure where we got that news from…
No. I don’t know where this info came from. https://t.co/IEeUIz5fsE

ORIGINAL STORY: We got a short, extended teaser at the weekend but now we’re hearing rumours the second Shazam! trailer will premiere today.
DanielRPK of Super Bro Movies has been a reliable source for trailer scoop of late. He’s been able to confirm dates for all the recent Marvel trailers ahead of their release so we have every reason to believe this latest info is credible.
In a tweet overnight he has confirmed the second Shazam! trailer will drop today around 09:00 EST / 12:00 PT / 17:00 GMT. Keep it locked to GYCO and we’ll bring you the trailer as soon as it (hopefully) arrives!
Second for Shazam should drop tomorrow at 9am PST.

Whilst you wait you can find all our coverage of the movie over at our Shazam! hub.
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.
