‘Shazam!’: Zachary Levi Breaks Down Why Batman Is Cooler Than Superman

Shazam! star Zachary Levi and director David F. Sandberg explain what makes Batman cooler than Superman.

Batman and Superman are two of the most iconic comic book heroes of all time. Due to the fact that they are different in so many ways, and have clashed multiple times because of this, fans over the years have debated which of the heroes is better than the other. Shazam! hits theaters next month and star Zachary Levi recently teamed up with director David F. Sandberg to make the case for why Batman is cooler than Superman.

Zachary Levi and David F. Sandberg were recently talking to Fandango and were asked why Batman was cooler than Superman. David F. Sandberg began by explaining why he feels the Dark Knight is the coolest of the two.

“He’s just more moodier and cooler.”

Zachary Levi then jumped in and explained why he feels the Caped Crusader is cooler than Superman.

“Yeah, like a playboy. The whole Bruce Wayne thing is really cool and he’s a billionaire. Yeah, he’s got issues. I mean, Superman’s got issues too but Superman is the ultimate boy scout.

He will always choose good and he also has that almost like Spock meets boy scout. Because he’s an alien so he sees things much more logically and less emotionally than humans do. But, that also kinda makes you a bit of a square, right?”

We’ll be sure to keep you updated on all news regarding Shazam! as soon as more information becomes available. Do you agree with Zachary Levi and his take on the iconic DC heroes? Do you prefer Batman to Superman as well? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below!

Directed by David F. Sandberg, Shazam! stars Zachary Levi, Asher Angel, Mark Strong, Jack Dylan Grazer, Grace Fulton, Faithe Herman, Ian Chen, Jovan Armand, Cooper Andrews, Marta Milans, and Djimon Hounsou.

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! will be released in theaters on April 5, 2019.
