In a newly emerging controversy surrounding Disney’s upcoming “Snow White,” tensions between lead actress Rachel Zegler and co-star Gal Gadot have escalated dramatically. The film, which has reportedly incurred a staggering budget exceeding $350 million, is already being labeled a box office disaster even before its release.

Recent reports indicate that during a photo shoot for the Disney Plus digital cover of “Snow White,” Zegler expressed her frustration towards Gadot, calling her one of the most incompetent co-stars she has ever worked with. This exchange reportedly stemmed from Zegler’s dissatisfaction with Gadot’s requests for multiple retakes, which delayed the photo shoot. Tensions flared further when Zegler urged Gadot to refrain from discussing her political views, particularly her support for Israel, during promotional activities.

Sources reveal that the atmosphere on set became so charged that the production team struggled to capture usable images, leading to significant editing work needing to be done post-shoot. Gadot, who was heavily made up for her role as the Evil Queen, reportedly left the set due to the negative energy, after being blamed by Zegler for the film’s backlash and poor reception.

Zegler’s comments have sparked outrage, particularly as she has previously engaged in political discourse herself, which adds a layer of hypocrisy to the situation. Critics are now questioning whether the film’s impending failure is a result of internal conflicts, poor writing, and Zegler’s public behavior rather than the political views of its cast.

As Disney navigates this public relations nightmare, the future of “Snow White” looks increasingly uncertain, with many industry experts suggesting that the film may be rushed to Disney Plus sooner than anticipated. The ongoing feud between Zegler and Gadot serves as a stark reminder of the challenges facing Hollywood productions, where on-set dynamics can significantly impact a film’s success.
