— The Hashtag Show podcast, movie website “We Got This Covered,” reports that John Cena and Joshua Sasse are the early front-runners for the lead role in the “Shazam!” movie from DC Comics. The film is scheduled to start filming early next year for an April 2019 release date.

The first synopsis for the movie reads like this:

“Based on the DC Comics character “Shazam!” Billy Batson becomes Captain Marvel, the world’s mightiest mortal, when he says the magic word “Shazam! The name is an acronym for six gods and heroes of the ancient world as well as their attributes. The wisdom of Solomon, strength of Hercules, stamina of Atlas, power of Zeus, courage of Achilles and speed of Mercury.”

— WWE has announced that new episodes of the “Story Time” animated series will be coming to the WWE Network later this month. As of this writing, there’s still no word yet on when the second season will premiere.
