Rachel Zegler Faces Backlash for Comments on Social Media
News summary

Rachel Zegler, the actress starring in Disney's upcoming live-action remake of Snow White, has sparked controversy after posting 'Free Palestine' on social media while promoting the film's trailer. This remark has drawn backlash, particularly as it comes in the context of her co-star Gal Gadot, an Israeli actress, leading some to accuse Zegler of trolling. The film, set for a March 2025 release, has already faced delays and negative attention due to Zegler's previous disparaging comments about the original animated film and the portrayal of its characters. Critics argue that Zegler's behavior is damaging to both her career and Disney's reputation, which has been struggling financially amid cultural controversies. Disney CEO Bob Iger has expressed a desire to steer the company away from political disputes that have impacted its bottom line. The film's production challenges and Zegler's actions contribute to a growing perception of a public relations nightmare for the studio.
