Shazam! (2019)

Continuity mistake: Young Billy has brown eyes while teen and adult Billy have blue eyes.

Suggested correction: The "Adult Billy" isn't really an adult Billy, that is how Dr. Savana would've looked if he hadn't tried to take the Deadly Sins Ball. So the adult Billy figure is the default figure for anyone who passes.

All of his brothers and sisters are older versions of themselves (by both gender and ethnicity). It's not like Darla would have looked like Shazam had she been deemed worthy first. I could understand if you meant that they might not have all the characteristics (after all, older Freddy does not need a cane so eye color could be different) then I could buy that but older Billy is not the default for just anyone.

Suggested correction: While I don't think it's expressed in the film, much of the film mirrors Shazam from the comics (mid 80's and up). I didn't see anything in the film to suggest it's what Dr. Sivana would have looked like or a default setting. In the comics, Shazam represents Billy's idealized self, not Billy as an adult. Same for the other kids. In the film, and comics, Billy also retains his adolescent personality to further indicate he's not an older version of himself.

Shazam! (2019)

Correction: While the number certainly isn't massive, I wouldn't say it just a few. There's over 50 actors that have spanned DC and Marvel.

Correction: Anyway, the point is that he has been in both companies.

Generally an actor's resume isn't trivia unless it somehow relates to the movie or character itself. Given that so many actors have done Marvel and DC, there's unique about it and there's nothing to connect the two characters.
