Estimated time: 3 minutes
This time, the muscular man who eats spinach will appear in a live-action movie. This is rarely the first time he’s addressed Popeye the sailor in live-action. Robin Williams played the character in the 1980 film Popeye. This movie was not well earned, and sometimes it is still considered a failure. Williams left the character as part of his comedy routines and nothing more. It was much more effective in those routines than in a movie.
