The upcoming Shazam! movie might be introducing more than one superpowered youngster.

Omega Underground recently uncovered an audition tape for the upcoming DC Comics film. The tape shows actor Brendan Heard (Odd Squad, Orphan Black) auditioning for the role of 'Frank', a "disabled foster kid" with a sarcastic sense of humor.

Fans of the Shazam family will recognize those character traits as belonging to Freddy Freeman, also known as Shazam Jr. In the comics, Freddy is severely injured due to a fight between Shazam and Captain Nazi, causing Billy to transfer some of his powers to the young boy. Freddy then becomes Shazam Jr., and is taken into Billy's foster family.

The dialogue in Heard's audition tape seems to suggest a different origin for Freddy, with him already being disabled, and introducing Billy into the foster home. Another scene hints that Freddy is well aware of Billy's powers, and almost jealous of them, as he talks to an adult Shazam after he saves a bus full of people.

Of course, this could just be stock dialogue used for auditions, with the scenario being a little different within the actual film. But if bits of it do end up being true, it hints at a pretty interesting sidekick for the film's titular hero.
