Jackson Leonard Bostwick, Jr. (born October 23, 1943) is an American actor who is best known for having acted out the role of Captain Marvel in the first season of the ''Shazam!'' television series in 1974-75. Bostwick was dismissed from the cast of ''Shazam!'' two installments into the second season and replaced in the role by actor John Davey. Bostwick had not shown up for a day's shooting, and the producers, Louis Scheimer and Norman Prescott, accused him of holding out for a higher salary. Bostwick explained that he had sustained an injury during the previous day's filming and had gone to seek medical treatment. He successfully litigated against Filmation Associates, which was forced to pay him for the remainder of his contract, plus residuals, including the entire second season. Bostwick was born in Carlisle, Pennsylvania. Bostwick's father, Dr. Jackson Leonard Bostwick Sr. M.D., was a well-known neurosurgeon who was licensed, was based, and practiced in Montgomery, Alabama. In the late 1980s, Bostwick's father suddenly died. Bostwick had briefly returned to Montgomery before this and had taught theater at Auburn University at Montgomery, where he directed several plays, including ''The Ballad of the Sad Cafe.'' He also became the founder of the L.A. (Lower Alabama) Film Group and the MIT ((mostly) In Tennessee ) Film Group, two independent "off-Hollywood" motion-picture and television production companies. Bostwick met his wife, Elizabeth, in Los Angeles, where she was working as an actress. He is trained in jeet kune do and Wing-Chun Kung-Fu. ==External links== * *(Official site ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jackson Bostwick」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
