In a recent post, Shazam! director David F. Sandberg trolled a fan asking for behind the scenes footage of the film.
The post in question had a fan claim that he was at the Shazam! panel for CCXP but somehow missed the behind the scenes video that was showed. The director responded by sending the fan a clip that was unlisted on his YouTube channel. It simply shows Sandberg in a harness, taking off like Superman with blue screens all around him.

From the look of things, the Sandberg has an odd way of joking with people.
What did you all make of this joke? Did it make you chuckle or was the director trying a little to hard with this one? Let us know what you think in the comments below!
Here is synopsis for Shazam!:
We all have a superhero inside us, it just takes a bit of magic to bring it out. In Billy Batson’s (Angel) case, by shouting out one word—SHAZAM!—this streetwise 14-year-old foster kid can turn into the adult Super Hero Shazam (Levi), courtesy of an ancient wizard. Still a kid at heart—inside a ripped, godlike body—Shazam revels in this adult version of himself by doing what any teen would do with superpowers: have fun with them! Can he fly? Does he have X-ray vision? Can he shoot lightning out of his hands? Can he skip his social studies test? Shazam sets out to test the limits of his abilities with the joyful recklessness of a child. But he’ll need to master these powers quickly in order to fight the deadly forces of evil controlled by Dr. Thaddeus Sivana (Strong).
Directed by David F. Sandberg, Shazam! stars Zachary Levi, Asher Angel, Mark Strong, Jack Dylan Grazer, Grace Fulton, Faithe Herman, Ian Chen, Jovan Armand, Cooper Andrews, Marta Milans, and Djimon Honsou.
Shazam! will be released in theaters on April 5, 2019.
