“Shazam!” star Zachary Levi torched an entertainment outlet that attacked him for his support of President-elect Donald Trump following Vice President Kamala Harris’ defeat in the election.

In a lengthy X post on Wednesday, the 44-year-old actor hit back against the Hollywood entertainment outlet Showbiz 411 — run by Roger Friedman — after it said the “only consolation” in Trump’s victory is that Levi “will never be part of mainstream Hollywood after this. You can make movies with Mel Gibson and Dennis Quaid.”

Oh, it’s all gravy, Roger!” the actor replied. “My goal has always been to leave it at some point anyway, and build a better system that actually values and compensates the artists more than enriching far too many executives that, by and large, compromise the creative integrity of the art whilst taking the lion share of the proceeds, which they don’t deserve.”

“In addition, I plan on creating a studio that protects and promotes certified organic, human-made content, while mainstream Hollywood continues to replace all of its workforce with AI, simply to maximize their dwindling profits,” he added. “Enjoy reporting on the sidelines of the Hollywood apocalypse!”

Speaking on “The Megyn Kelly Show,” the actor said he hadn’t voted for Trump in the last two elections, but noted that the former president did a “good job” — despite what Trump’s opponents said.

“For four years, the world didn’t blow up,” Levi said. “He didn’t turn into the Nazi fascist that everybody [said] he was going to be the first time around. We entered no more wars. Our economy was better. Our border was better.”

“Even if I don’t like all of his Trumpiness,” Levi said, that doesn’t change the fact that Vice President Kamala Harris “is not qualified in any way shape or form to be the Commander in Chief, the leader of the free world. Absolutely not.”

Levi said he wasn’t just voting for Trump — rather, he was “voting for Donald Trump, Bobby Kennedy, Tulsi Gabbard, Vivek Ramaswamy, Elon Musk, JD Vance, and everyone else that they’re going to bring in this team, this Avengers.”

“They’re going to get in there and actually do what Donald Trump said he was going to do the first time, which was drain the swamp,” he added.

Levi made headlines in September when he became one of the rare voices in Hollywood to endorse Trump, saying he believed the former president would “take back this country” and “make it great again,” as The Daily Wire reported.
