Rachel Zegler sparks controversy about movie ‘Snow White’

Rachel Zegler, the ‘Snow White’ in Disney’s upcoming ‘Snow White’, is facing criticism for her remarks made duringthe movie’s promotional campaign.

Recently resurfacedinterview clips reveal Zegler making multiple indicationsthat she is not particularly fond of how the Disney princess was originally depicted.

In another interview with Variety, the actor was asked what she truly meant when she said that she wanted to bring amodern edge to the character.

“I just mean that it’s no longer 1937,” Zegler had responded. “She’s not going to be saved by the prince, and she’s not goingto be dreaming about true love – she’s dreaming about becoming the leader she knows she can be and the leader that her late father told her that she could be if she was fearless, fair, brave, and true.”

These statements stirred quite a controversy among the TikTok community. Some even said that her statements have been condescendingtowards women.

“She made us sound like women only matter if they are hateful of love, hateful of any kind of romance, and we only exist to thrive and be a leader,” said another user. -Agencies
