  • Following the ethnicity-oriented criticism, Zegler set tongues wagging when she hit out at movie bosses who worked on the original 1937 cartoon. Interviewed on the red carpet of Disney's D23 Expo in 2022, she also took aim at the way the animated flick has aged.

Rachel Zegler, cast as Snow White in Disney's upcoming live-action remake, has stirred controversy with her comments on the original 1937 animated film. Zegler described the classic as dated, particularly criticizing the prince's behavior towards Snow White as "weird" and suggesting that the new film would focus more on Snow White's leadership qualities rather than her need for a prince's rescue. Her remarks, along with changes to the story like the removal of the seven dwarfs, have led to backlash from fans who feel the essence of the original tale is being altered too drastically. This has resulted in a significant online debate about the modernization of fairy tales, with some accusing Zegler and the film's direction of disrespecting the source material. Despite the controversy, Zegler has also received support for her fresh take on the character, highlighting the ongoing tension between tradition and contemporary values in film adaptations.
