DC Star Zachary Levi Bitter Shazam Role Didnt Make Him the Next Captain America

Actors often long for the one big role that propels them into superstardom, and, as it turns out, Zachary Levi hoped it would be Shazam! The actor, who endeared himself to nerds everywhere by playing Chuck Bartowski on the cult action-comedy series Chuck, wanted to transition to big screen projects that would likely lead to even bigger big screen projects, and it appeared he was on his way. After appearing in Thor: The Dark World and Thor: Ragnarok, he got to headline the DCEU’s Shazam!, a film that was well received and garnered a decent box office. However, despite the film’s success, Levi didn’t ascend to the next level, and it appears the next level for the actor was to be like Captain America himself, Chris Evans.
