“So, like two years ago, more or less, I was working in a movie in New Orleans, when my agents called me to say that I was going to get a [video] call from Ryan Coogler…  And no one knew anything about that call. They didn’t even tell any of us what was going on.
Obviously, you must sign up all the confidentiality agreements first. When Ryan called me, he began to explain to me the story of a character, which they were going to re write to adapt certain things, about the story of Namor. And then he spoke of warriors, of a shaman, and a lot of other stuff and suddenly… the video crashed! It was like that for about three or four minutes!
And then he’s back again and asks, ‘So, what do you think?’ And I was like… ‘Hell yeah! Yes sir, I’m all about it. Then he asked me, ‘Can you swim?’ And I was like, ‘Well, I’ve never drowned, right?’ he laughed.
Then my agents called me back, to ask about how it went. I told them that he mentioned warriors and a shaman, so I guessed he was asking me to be the shaman, right? They told me they were going to ask for more details, ‘It must be an important character if the director himself called you’, so they asked them and when they called me back once again they were like ‘Hey, you fool! They’re offering you one of the leads! Not a shaman or anything like that!’ ‘The video call crashed!’ I explained to them.
And then they too asked me, ‘But, you can swim, right?’ ‘Well, yes, I’ve never drowned.’” After that, the producer called me, Nate, and he explained to me the whole story. Once more they asked, ‘Can you swim?’ I kept saying: ‘I’ve never drowned’ He laughed too. My agent and my team insisted, ‘Seriously, can you swim?’, ‘I’ve never drowned’" We’re serious.’ ‘I’m serious too, I’ve never drowned. I can’t swim but I’ve never drowned. I mean, I can survive’. ‘MF! Why you didn’t say it anything?! You must say these things!’ [Laughs].“
So, I took intensive swimming lessons. I didn’t know what I was getting myself into. I only said, ‘yes, sir’. Like Francisco Villa used to say: ‘Shoot, You’ll figure it out later on.’” And that’s what I did, I figured it out later: what the hell was going on, or if I could or couldn’t’ swim.
For two years that’s what I did.“ Since two years ago, it was all about waiting for the right conditions, waiting for a script, for the things that needed to be worked on. And afterwards, all the preparation. Since January or February from last year, approximately, I was totally immersed and working 100% on this project. And that’s about it. Look, here it is. Here it is at last. Finally I can talk about it without being sued by Mr. Marvel.”

captain marvel/shazam family is literally um. every member thinks they’re worse than the other. billy’s like mary and freddy have their lives together and are so much more competent than me. i wish i could be as good as them bc i am falling apart and i can do this all by myself but im too selfish bc i want them with me and that makes me a horrible person. and mary’s like billy thinks so highly of me im going to disappoint him im never going to be the sister he envisions. when he looks at me he can see something else overlaid on me like a filter and it’s heavy and im doing my duties but is it enough is it ever enough… and freddy’s like i can see right through mary n she’s just a person but she’s handling this better than any of us and billy’s so good, so stubbornly impossibly good, like a myth instead of a boy. and im just the angry little kid who was supposed to die still trying to prove that i was worth saving. even though im not meant for this. but let me smile and wave at the cameras and make sure that mary and billy never have to do any of the dirty work, so that nothing bad could ever touch them..

MARY BROMFIELD in THE NEW CHAMPION OF SHAZAM! (2022) #1

Look, I tried to turn this down. Not because of the reasons I shouted at Hoppy in the middle of freshmen orientation… but because I wanted to be free. Free to figure out who I was away from my family. Free to become who I was supposed to be. To strip away all the outside influences, and get to the true core of myself. And maybe, maybe, part of me was just scared I’d mess it up.
