‘Shazam!’ star Zachary Levi endorses Trump, says move could mean ‘career suicide’

“Shazam!” star Zachary Levi formally endorsed former President Trump at an event Saturday in Michigan, saying that doing so could mean “career suicide.”

Levi, who has been outspoken in his support for former independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s 2024 bid, announced the endorsement ahead of a panel discussion he was moderating with Kennedy and former Democratic Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (Hawaii).

Levi credited the two public officials with inspiring his own support for Trump, painting the 2024 race as a choice between two options.

“I stand with Bobby, and I stand with Tulsi, and I stand with everyone else who is standing with President Trump,” the Hollywood actor said.

“Because I do believe, of the two choices that we have — and we only have two — Donald Trump, President Trump, is the man that can get us there,” Levi continued. “And he’s going to get us there because he’s going to have the backing and the support and the wisdom and the knowledge and the fight that exists in Robert Kennedy Jr. and former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard.”

Levi, who stars in the title role of the superhero movies, recognized he is among a small group of Hollywood actors who have supported the Republican nominee.

“When I came out and I said I was endorsing President Trump through my endorsement of Tulsi and Bobby, the messages that I received … 90 percent have actually been quite lovely and supportive, and I’ve really appreciated that,” Levi said at the end of the panel discussion.

“But I will say, though,” Levi added, “within my industry, as you can probably imagine, Hollywood is a very, very liberal town, and this very well could constitute career suicide.”
