Zachary Levi Moves to Texas After Hollywood Backlash

Zachary Levi, known for his roles in 'Chuck' and 'Shazam!', has faced professional backlash in Hollywood after publicly supporting Donald Trump and expressing skepticism about COVID-19 vaccines. Levi revealed in a Variety interview that some industry colleagues now avoid working with him due to his opinions, though he anticipated and accepted this consequence. Despite strained relationships in Hollywood, he has received private support from others and increased interest from conservative figures. Levi is shifting his focus to Texas, where he is building Wyldwood Studios in Austin to foster a new creative community outside of what he describes as a 'crumbling' Hollywood. His remarks, especially those linking the vaccine to the death of Broadway co-star Gavin Creel, have drawn criticism from former colleagues. Levi insists he does not blindly support Trump but values speaking his mind despite potential professional risks.
