Israeli actress Gal Gadot, 40, attributed the box-action box office failure “Snow White” to political issues. In an interview in Hebrew to The A Talks podcast from The Jerusalem Post, she said the pressure on celebrities to position themselves against Israel directly impacted the performance of the feature.
“First of all, I must say that I really enjoyed making this movie. I even enjoyed working with Rachel Zegler. We laughed, we talked and it was fun. I was sure it would be a big hit,” he said. Snow White Interpreter, Zegler often publishes pro-Palestine messages in the Middle East conflict.
According to Gadot, the scenario changed after attacks on October 7, 2023. “What is happening in several industries, including Hollywood, is that there is a lot of pressure for celebrities to speak out against Israel. I was disappointed because the film was very affected by it and did not do well at the boxes,” he added.
Born in Tel Aviv, the actress served the Israeli army in youth and has been publicly positioned since the beginning of the Israel-Hamas War in 2023. At the time, she wrote: “I am on Israel’s side, and you should be. The world cannot stay on the wall when these horrible terror acts are happening.”
Launched in March this year, “Snow White” raised $ 205.6 million around the world, but had an estimated cost of $ 410 million (about $ 2.2 billion) for Disney.
