I was actually willing to give this movie a chance… until I saw who was cast. Rachel Zegler is completely miscast as Snow White — not just in looks, but in attitude. Her off-screen comments were arrogant and dismissive, showing zero respect for the original story or fans. It’s hard to enjoy a film when the lead actress acts like she’s above the role. Disney seriously needs to reconsider who they let represent their legacy characters.
Zegler’s performance felt less like Snow White and more like Snow “Whatever, I Deserve Better.” It’s hard to root for a character when the actress looks like she’d rather be anywhere else, preferably on a stage giving a TED Talk about how she’s above it all. She acts like she’s doing the audience a favor by showing up?
