Zachary Levi          

American Actor, Director & Singer Known for "Chuck," "Tangled" & "Thor: The Dark World;" Founder of The Nerd Machine -- To Spread the "Nerd" Culture

Zachary Levi first appeared in the FX television movie, "Big Shot: Confessions of a Campus Bookie." He played Kipp Steadman on the ABC sitcom, "Less Than Perfect."

He landed the starring role in "Chuck" in 2007. Levi and his Chuck co-star, Yvonne Strahovski, were both nominated for Best Action Actor and Actress Choice TV Series for the Teen Choice Awards 2010 where they both won and presented. In the summer of 2008, Levi was named one of Entertainment Weekly's Top Thirty People Under Thirty. He starred in the 2010 Disney-animated feature film "Tangled," which is based on the popular fairy tale, "Rapunzel." He voiced Flynn Rider, a bandit who finds refuge in Rapunzel's tower. He provided narration in the 2011 film Under the Boardwalk: The Monopoly Story, a documentary about the game of Monopoly. Levi also hosted the 2011 Spike Video Game Awards.

Levi hosted the web documentaries, "Tomb Raider The Final Hours," going behind the scenes of the new Tomb Raider game. He was originally to portray Fandral in "Thor," but had to drop out due to scheduling conflicts with Chuck. He did play the role in the sequel, "Thor: The Dark World," after original actor Josh Dallas had scheduling conflicts of his own. Levi made his Broadway debut in a production of the musical comedy, "First Date," in August 2013.

He is an avid gamer, having first played Super Mario Bros., and has come to appreciate video games for their ability to provide interactive stories.

In September 2010, Levi started his own company, The Nerd Machine, online community website to spread the "nerd" culture. Since July 2011, Zachary Levi and the Nerd Machine have partnered with Break media to create a series of videos and events at the 2011 Comic-Con International Convention. At "Nerd HQ", various celebrity supporters of The Nerd Machine, such as Nathan Fillion, Scott Bakula and Jared Padalecki, talk in small panels answering questions that the audience pose to them. The idea to create this event came from Levi's "Chuck" co-star, Adam Baldwin.
