Quote:
Get Smart director Peter Segal will helm a film version of DC Comics' Captain Marvel, part of a three-year deal among Warner Brothers, Segal and his Callahan Filmworks partner Michael Ewing, Variety reported.
Warner acquired the John August-scripted Captain Marvel. Segal and Ewing began working on the film two years ago at New Line, but the property has moved over to Warner.
The movie tells the story of teenage Billy Batson, who transforms into the superhero when he says the word "Shazam!"
The deal comes as Segal prepares to direct a sequel to Get Smart for Warner and Village Roadshow Pictures.
