It seems DC and Warner Bros. are finally showing some movement on their future film properties, including their upcoming Green Lantern Corps film. The same can be said of Shazam, which was only known for its involvement of Dwayne The Rock Johnson until recently.

While the film doesn't have an actor cast in the Shazam role just yet, it does now have a writer on board. On Twitter Henry Gayden was asked if he could confirm or deny that he was working on Shazam, and he said: "Confirmed and loving what's to come... :)."

Gayden's previous work includes Earth To Echo, and this will be his first work in the DC Cinematic Universe. The film doesn't yet have a director, but Brad Peyton (San Andreas) is rumored to be on the list of possible choices.

Most of the movement though has come courtesy of The Rock, who has been attached to play Black Adam in the project for some time. He recently met with DC about the movie and its role in the cinematic universe.

"One of the most powerful anti-heroes on the planet is coming. And he is coming in hot. Brace yourself for BLACK ADAM! It's a new dawn. #DCUniverse #SevenBucks #FlynnPictureCo #DreamTeam @therock @hhgarcia41 @danygarciaco @rbpix #GeoffJohns #Repost @therock ・・・ Had a very cool and strategic meeting with the heads of DC about their entire universe. As a hard core DC fan, to get a real sense of the tonal shifts and developments coming in these future movies has me fired up. Something we, as DC fans have all been waiting for for a very long time. Hope, optimism & FUN. Even when talking about the the most ruthless villain/anti-hero of all time finally coming to life. Prepare yourselves DC Universe. #KneelAtHisFeet #OrGetCrushedByHisBoot #BlackAdam⚡️"

Shazam is expected to hit theaters on April 5, 2019.
