Overview

Radical Love is the debut memoir from actor Zachary Levi (Shazam!, American Underdog, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Chuck), which shares his emotional journey through a lifetime of crippling anxiety and depression to find joy, gratitude, and ultimate purpose.

Facing the scars of childhood trauma and the voices in his head that told him he would never be enough, Zac recounts the raw yet honest behind-the-scenes story of:

  • his family life,
  • career successes,
  • and personal disappointments.

This all led Zac to rock bottom and landed him in a therapy center, where he learned to address the underlying issues that preceded his downward spiral. With vulnerability and humor, Zac relates the valuable lessons and insights he’s learned so that you can rise from the ashes of trauma and pursue a meaningful life of gratitude.

Radical Love combines witty, touching, and powerful commentary with relatable illustrations to help you on your own path toward mental wellness.

About the Author

About The Author
Zachary Levi has proven himself a triple threat. He is an accomplished actor, singer, and dancer who displayed this with his Tony-nominated performance for “Best Leading Actor in a Musical” in the critically praised Broadway production, She Loves Me.

In March 2023, Levi reprised his role as Shazam! in the Warner Bros. DC franchise, Shazam! Fury of the Gods. Directed by David F. Sandberg, this was the follow-up to the first installment, Shazam! which held the #1 spot at the box office for weeks following its April 2019 release.

In a fan favorite recurring role, Levi took home a SAG Award for “Best Ensemble in a Comedy Series” for season two and three of Amazon Studios’ Emmy winning series, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. The first season of the show won six Primetime Emmys, two Golden Globes, as well as a Peabody Award and two Critics’ Choice Awards. The second season won one Golden Globe, three Screen Actor Guild Awards, one PGA Award, two Broadcast Film Critics Association Awards, one Critics Choice TV Award, and TV Program of the Year at the AFI Awards.

Levi is best known for his fan favorite performance as Chuck Bartowski in the hit NBC series, Chuck.

In June 2022, Levi made his author debut with his memoir, Radical Love: Learning to Accept Yourself and Others, which shares his emotional journey through a lifetime of crippling anxiety and depression to find joy, gratitude, and ultimate purpose.

Up next, Zachary will star in Harold & the Purple Crayon for Sony, based on the wildly popular children’s book written by Crockett Johnson. The film is slated for an August 2024 release in theaters.

Levi currently serves as an Ambassador to Active Minds, a nonprofit organization dedicated to raising mental health awareness among college students, via peer-to-peer dialogue, and interaction.
