Zachary Levi seems to prefer that a member of the Justice League will get out of their way to make an appearance in his upcoming movie "Shazam," as the main actor hopes that Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot) will be available for the movie.

In an interview with ET Online, Levi enthused that he would like to see the Amazon warrior princess in the movie upcoming DC movie. Apparently, Levi is already playing the part of Shazam despite being off the set. Fans will recall that Shazam is supposed to be an omnipotent superhero like Superman but with the imagination and the mannerisms of a child, his alter ego Billy Batson to be precise.

"I think getting a cameo from anybody would be super cool, but I just think Gal Gadot is so effervescent. She has such a charm. And she seems like a really cool broad. Like, she was in the Israeli army. She's a mom. And I'm like, 'You seem like you're grounded and cool, and you're Wonder Woman, and you rock,' and I think it would be really funny to have the 14-year-old Billy Batson inside of Shazam that's really awkward around this beautiful Amazonian. I just think that would be really awesome," said Levi in the interview.

Fans might want to hold their excitement, however, as the prospect might not become a reality yet, despite Levi's whims for the movie. Most of Shazam and Batson's run-ins with Justice League members was with Superman in the recent comic books since the two were somewhat equal in strength but with the former needing mentorship from an adult since he is basically just a kid with superpowers.

So far, details for "Shazam" are still being kept scarce, and no exact word of which among the DC universe superheroes will appear in the movie as a cameo. More will be found out once "Shazam" premieres on April 5, 2019.
