Shazam! director David F. Sandberg has been doing his research in preparing to helm the upcoming DC film. And with this clip he shared on his Instagram, we might see a familiar face in the movie.

The clip begins with an animated scene in which Billy Batson is knocked out, and Batman comes to check on him. When Batson comes to, he says “Shazam!” and Batman is blown back. Immediately, Ben Affleck then wakes up from his nightmare, as footage from Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice is edited in. Could this be a hint? Check out for yourself in the video below.
