“Shazam!” star Zachary Levi predicted that his career would collapse if he supported Donald Trump as a presidential candidate.
Levi did the same.
Wake up. Please go bankrupt. backpedal. That's Hollywood's new mantra.
So far, he hasn't been pitchforked out of Tinseltown, but it's still a possibility. “Club Random” host Bill Maher warned actors last week that Hollywood could continue to punish them for getting the wrong idea during a friendly conversation.
Now, Levi is under personal attack from variety film critic Peter DeBrugge for the craziest reason. Critics named Levi's 2024 film “Harold and the Purple Crayon” as one of the worst films of the year.
To be fair, neither critics nor audiences were kind to this children's film. De Bruges went one step further.:
“Sony is bringing the comic book character into the 'real world,' replacing the lovable Harold with Zachary Levi, who is allergic to eyes, and has been reused in everything from Sonic to The Smurfs.” You're repeating well-worn ideas.”
Do you have eye allergies? It could be said that Levi's looks lean more towards the powerful than the critic in question. More importantly, what a terrible thing to say about any actor, let alone a traditionally handsome actor like the “Chuck” alum.
Do you think Trump's support has anything to do with that unprofessional joke? Just ask Maher or anyone with a functional frontal cortex…

“Evil” is good
Everyone hated the Joker musical sequel, but the opposite is true for Wicked.
The film hit theaters last month and has already grossed $361 million (and counting) in the US. That's despite hiding the fact that the film is the first in a two-part series. It’s not “Wicked: Part I,” it’s just “Wicked.”
I was deceived!
We now know that the second and final film will be released in theaters in November 2025 and will be titled Wicked: The Good. Someone in the marketing department is a Red Sox fan, right?

Who said God has no sense of humor?
Justin Timberlake had a front row seat to the most famous 'wardrobe malfunction' of all time. He watched Janet Jackson demonstrate more than her singing ability during the 2004 Super Bowl halftime show.
Jackson's career took a nosedive, but the NSYNC alum went in a different direction.
Timberlake suffered some sort of “breakdown” during a concert in Nashville last week. The singer performed in a harness for safety reasons, but the device pulled up his shirt, exposing his still uncovered crotch. He tried to pull his shirt up to hide his bulge, which made this clip even more appealing to social media types.
Unsurprisingly, this snippet went viral. It's called digital karma…
