🇺🇸 SHAZAM STAR BUILDING $100M “NON-WOKE” FILM STUDIO IN TEXAS
Zachary Levi is raising $40 million to build Wyldwood Studios, a 75-acre film campus in Bastrop, Texas, just 35 miles from Austin.
The ‘Chuck’ and ‘Shazam!’ star compared his project to Charlie Chaplin’s United Artists, positioning it as a creative rebellion against Hollywood’s “crumbling” system.
The studio will feature traditional production facilities, housing, amphitheaters, and office space along the Colorado River.
The studio will aim to foster “organic, human-made content” as an alternative to woke Hollywood productions.
His timing couldn’t be better: Texas just approved $2.5 billion in media production incentives while Trump threatens 100% tariffs on overseas productions.
California’s loss is Texas’ gain.
As film productions flee high taxes and political correctness, Levi’s betting audiences want entertainment, not lectures.
With Elon Musk nearby and state backing, Bastrop could become Hollywood’s conservative alternative.
Sometimes the best way to fix a broken system is to build a better one next door.
