Rachel Zegler Reaffirms Support for Snow White After Disney+ No. 1 Showing

Overview

• In a new Glamour interview, Rachel Zegler says she loved making the film and frames the backlash as negativity drowning out praise.
• She highlights that the movie later reached the top spot on Disney+, which she takes as evidence of audience interest.
• The film earned about $205 million worldwide against an estimated $270–$300 million budget, with analysts pegging potential losses at $115–$200 million.
• Disney delayed release to conduct reshoots that restored elements from the original story, a move that raised costs even as U.K. incentives are expected to soften the hit.
• Casting choices and the initial replacement of the seven dwarfs with 'magical creatures' drew public criticism, and Zegler’s past remarks about the 1937 film and her separate political comments—later apologized for—kept her in the spotlight.
