Zachary Levi is an experienced actor best known for his appearances in Chuck and the DC blockbuster Shazam! Additionally, he has appeared as Fandral, one of the Warriors Three, in two Thor sequels and has voiced characters in animated films like “Tangled.” Throughout Lewi’s long career, he’s done it all. “The Unbreakable Boy,” Levi’s most recent picture that isn’t based on a comic book, keeps on the tradition.
According to Deadline, Levi’s involvement in “The Unbreakable Boy” was confirmed back in 2020. Levi will play the child’s father in a drama about a boy with brittle-bone illness and autism. The movie is based on Scott LeRette’s book “The Unbreakable Boy: A Father’s Fear, Son’s Courage, and a Story of Unconditional Love,” which is based on a true storey. While Levi is no stranger to serious roles, “The Unbreakable Boy” will definitely be a departure for the comic performer.
Details on Release Date
Despite commencing production in early 2021, “The Unbreakable Boy” did not have a set release date for a long time. Deadline, on the other hand, claims that the movie will be released on March 18th, 2022. A little adjustment in release dates for “The Unbreakable Boy” is likely, given how frequently studios have shifted their plans owing to the continuing pandemic outbreak.
Even yet, given that “The Unbreakable Boy” is a family drama, this release date may make sense. An uplifting dramatic adventure may be the solution to something like that for those who are tired of comic book extravaganza. Whatever the case may be, distributor Lionsgate has chosen March as the release date for the film.
Details on Casting Members
Even though Levi is the star of “The Unbreakable Boy,” the rest of the ensemble is as impressive. According to Deadline, “The Unbreakable Boy” will also include Meghann Fahy, Drew Powell, Jacob Laval, Gavin Warren, and Patricia Heaton. “The Unbreakable Boy” will feature Laval as Austin, the lead character. While the remainder of the cast has yet to be announced, we can expect to learn more about them when a trailer is released.
Fahy has a long history in television, having been in shows like “The Good Wife” and “Chicago Fire,” as well as the serial opera “One Life to Live.” She’s been in a few little film parts before, but this appears to be her most significant.
Powell is perhaps most remembered for his role as Butch Gilzean/Solomon Grundy on “Gotham.” Warren is a young actor with minimal experience, but he’s perhaps most known for his part in “First Man.” Known for her roles in comedies like “Everybody Loves Raymond” and “Debra Barone,” Heaton is one of the cast’s most known members.
Details on Storyline
According to Deadline, the storyline of “The Unbreakable Boy” revolves around Austin (Laval), a boy born with autism and brittle bone disease, and his father Scott (Levi). According to “The Unbreakable Boy,” Austin is a role model for everybody who meets him. Finally, Scott’s image of his son changes from broken to one of someone with a “indestructible spirit,” as he puts it.
While “The Unbreakable Boy” may sound like a typical family-friendly inspiring film, it’s actually a great choice for a night out on the town. As of yet, nothing is known about the plot of the film, nor is it clear how closely it will resemble its inspiration or the real-life circumstances that led to it. This has every potential of being a smash with its target demographic thanks to director Jon Gunn, who is known for films like “The Case for Christ” and other inspiring family fare.
