Inside Disney’s ‘Snow White’ Fiasco: Death Threats, Beefed-Up Security and a Social Media Guru for Rachel Zegler
From beefing up security for Gal Gadot to hiring a social media guru for Rachel Zegler, go inside the fiasco that is Disney's "Snow White" remake.variety.com
Gadot hasn’t publicly commented on her costar at all. She had to get security; Zegler had to get a social media watcher. And you think this suggests Gadot is the irresponsible one here? She’s worked on countless large casts over the last 15 or so years and there’s never been a problem like this coming out from her cast mates.
I suspect her future will be largely in theater where talent is more important than public image, I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s her choice also, her movie career can’t have been very fun for her. If I were her I’d enjoy a couple years of being praised for singing and acting rather than scrutinized over every word spoken.
I would agree with this in general, however I suspect she'll be up for more movie roles in the near future. As external "drama" for this single movie aside, she is still fairly well praised in this movie and the several others she's been in.
Cool. Please let us know when this materializes.
No disagreement here. Marc Webb should never be given a big budget again. Whoever did the SFX should be run out like Victoria Alonzo. Whoever greenlit the entire concept of the movie should be gone (I think he is). And maybe whoever thought it was a good idea that a screenwriter whose biggest claim to fame was Secretary should write a Disney Princess film should also be shown the door. But in keeping with the times, Zegler has her own agency and chose to make numerous public pronouncements that adversely affected the marketing for this film in a very calculable way, and that should also not be excused.
I'm not her Agent, nor am I responsible for tracking her career.
Disney did a horrible job. It doesn’t excuse Zegler taking a flamethrower to the project.
Oh come on now. Not even Disney could have brought that character to life!
Mr Confirmation Bias strikes again
Now someone will mention The Hunger Games, which made approximately half of what the last Jennifer Lawrence Hunger Games movie did.
NO star has box office pull anymore. None. Tom Cruise seemed to be the sole exception, but that’s fading fast.
It depends on what you consider "big screen" movies, not all movies on the "big screen" are $200M budget movies. There are lots of small and mid budget films where an actor can get work and still be released to the box office.
Ah yes, I’m the only guy here subject to confirmation bias.
Tom can't even do it anymore, at least not like he use to. So that fading fast has already faded in my opinion.
Now is that her fault or is that a lack of JLaw and franchise fatigue? But I'm sure you'll only blame her and not any of the other reasons.
