With the announcement that Zachary Levi would be portraying the World’s Mightiest Mortal in his very own standalone film, plenty of people have voiced their concerns about him being able to stand toe-to-toe (eventually) with The Rock, who was cast as Black Adam.

Shazam!, being directed by David F. Sandberg, is set to begin filming next year for a 2019 release.
