Ever since Zachary Levi tweeted about his interest in the Chuck movie, fans have been buzzing. But does he know anything more than what’s on the surface? We took a closer look at whether or not this is actually happening, and here’s what we found.
Zachary Levi says the Chuck movie is “close” to happening. It has been a long running rumor that Zachary Levi will be starring in the movie, but no official news has been released yet.
Shazam! Zachary Levi, actor of Fury of the Gods, has long wished for a Chuck film, and it now seems that his wish may be coming true. Levi gave an update on a movie continuation of the fan-favorite television series during a recent interview on Michael Rosenbaum’s Inside of You podcast, saying that he believes they’re “near” to making anything happen in that regard—though nothing is official just yet.
Levi began by stating that he had been attempting to do a Chuck film since before the television series ended, and that the Zoom reunion had provided as a “wonderful reminder” to everyone involved about how fantastic the program was.
“Since before we even ended the show, I’ve been wanting to do a Chuck movie,” Levi stated. “I was always thinking, we were practically shooting a tiny action movie every week anyhow, with absolutely no money budget and no time. So, if we had a little more money and time, we could produce some really great little Chuck movies and post them on the internet or anything. Since 2012, I’ve been attempting to do this. And, wow, I feel like the end is near. Yes, I’ve had some really excellent, hopeful talks with Josh Schwartz and Chris Fedak, the developers. We had a great day catching up and catching up.”
He went on to praise followers for their patience and stated that he believes they are on the verge of doing something.
“I’m not sure whether this is an official statement or not, but I will tell you that I have not stopped trying and will not stop trying for all of you who have been patient. We’ll do it one day, even if I’m a geriatric Chuck, I’ve joked… But I believe we’re on the verge of doing something, which I’m quite pleased about. And I think it’s ideal because, you know, it’s a Warner Bros. program, and it’s owned by Warner Bros., with I believe with all the streamers now and HBO Max, we could simply start developing movies and putting them there.”
This isn’t the first time Levi has spoken about the idea of making multiple Chuck movies for a streamer. In 2018, he told fans at Heroes & Villains Fan Fest San Jose that he wanted to do a Chuck movie every two years for Netflix, movies he described as one-off installments. And Levi isn’t the only Chuck star who would be down for some sort of revival of the series. Matt Bomer, who played Bryce Larkin in the first two seasons of the series, told last year he’d consider a return—though admittedly given his character’s fate in the series it would be a bit of a challenge.
Chuck premiered on NBC in 2007 and ran for five seasons, following computer whiz Chuck Bartowski (Levi), who receives an encoded e-mail from an old college friend working for the CIA, which sends the only remaining copy of a program containing the United States’ greatest spy secrets into Chuck’s brain. Chuck is sent on top-secret missions with CIA Agent Sarah Walker (Yvonne Strahovski), NSA Agent Colonel John Casey (Adam Baldwin), and his goofy best pal Morgan Grimes (Joshua Gomez).
