[2] For the score of Shazam, Sandberg and Wallfisch leaned into the territory of old-school fun adventure movies, taking inspiration from the scores of the 1970s and 1980s, specifically that of Superman by John Williams and Back to the Future by Alan Silvestri.

Sandberg noted "that many modern scores have moved away from such traditional music" and as such made the score a fitting homage to the Golden Age of Hollywood.

For the film's villain, Dr. Sivana, Wallfisch opted for a minimalist approach utilising only low male choir, extended bass woodwinds and brass.
