A delicate situation has been worrying the production of the film “Snow White”, which is due to be released in March 2025. The protagonists and castmates Rachel Zegler and Gal Gadot have been taking shots at each other on social media due to their different ideologies.
Actress Rachel Zegler, who will play Snow White in the film, often posts pro-Palestine messages about the Middle East conflict. On the other hand, Gal Gadot, who is Israeli, obviously thinks otherwise. In the Disney film, she will play the Evil Queen.
This issue, which has not yet been publicly addressed by Disney and has been speculated by international media such as Fox News, could hinder the launch of Marc Webb’s project. It is unlikely that the two actresses will appear together in the same place.
Gadot has been using social media to express her support for Israeli attacks on the Palestinian state in the Israel-Hamas war. In a recent Instagram post, the actress known for playing Wonder Woman in the movies reproduced a quote from Martin Luther King with the caption: “Only love can truly save the world.”
Zegler used the trailer for “Snow White” to address the issue of war. “Thank you for the love and 120 million views of our trailer in just 24 hours,” she wrote, before adding the phrase: “And never forget, free Palestine.”
Zegler’s post provoked a wave of reactions on social media, and many people have linked the messages as indirect messages to their castmate.
Last year, Gal Gadot said she supported Israel “and so should you.” “The world cannot sit on the fence while terrorist attacks happen,” she wrote on Instagram. Other pro-Israel figures include Amy Schumer, Ashley Tisdale, Jamie Lee Curtis and Natalie Portman, singer Madonna, actor Mark Hamill and socialite Kris Jenner.
Already in favor of Palestine in the war are influencer Mia Khalifa —she celebrated Hamas attacks in Israel on her social network—, and supermodel sisters Gigi Hadid and Bella Hadid.
