Laura Benanti Criticizes Zachary Levi's Behavior and Vaccine Comments

The Broadway star voiced her disapproval of her former co-star's on-set conduct and his controversial statements about Gavin Creel's death.

Laura Benanti revealed her longstanding dislike for Zachary Levi, citing his behavior during their 2016 Broadway run of 'She Loves Me.'
She accused Levi of 'mansplaining' cast members' roles and hosting unwanted pre-show dance parties, which she found disruptive.
Benanti expressed outrage over Levi's October Instagram Live, where he suggested their late co-star Gavin Creel's death was linked to COVID-19 vaccines.
Gavin Creel, who passed away in September from a rare form of cancer, was described by Benanti as someone Levi was not genuinely close to despite his claims.
Broadway figures, including Norbert Leo Butz, also criticized Levi for politicizing Creel's death to promote anti-vaccine rhetoric.
