Snow White (Live-Action)

[Disney's Divinity]

I don't think the cast or their opinions/likeability had much if anything to do with it. The film is based off an old property which already meant it had limited potential--only Alice and TJB have managed to get to the billion mark of all their remakes of pre-90s titles (Alice likely because it was seen as a Tim Burton film, not "a remake")--and they started the film up with the impression they were going to change everything via race bends, song cuts, cut characters, etc. Then they tried to reverse course midway after they'd learned from both Mulan and TLM massively underperforming that audiences don't like their severe changing of films in a supposed "remake," but the die had already been cast at that point.

“Honestly, I’m a duck,” she says today of criticism. “It rolls right off my back these days.” Her candour hasn’t been dented — this is a woman who clearly feels and cares deeply about the world. Zegler still thinks it’s important for actors to speak freely. “We just need to normalise our hearts’ not having boundaries,” she explains. “I think that there’s this idea that we as public figures can’t have thoughts or feelings because we are like paper dolls to a majority of the public.”

For the audacity of having opinions while being good at her job, she’s been branded “controversial” by tabloids. What keeps her grounded, despite all the noise? “My love for the work. I am the one who showed up and did my work every day. Nobody can ever take that away from me. I made lifelong friends on that job,” she says of her experience of Snow White. “That kind of family doesn’t get dissipated by online discourse.”

Every experience I’ve had so far has been such a wonderful lesson learned. I loved working on [Snow White], and I love that film. I’ve seen it a few times, and it [became] number one on streaming on Disney+, so I know that it’s celebrated. It was one of those experiences of sometimes negativity being louder than positivity. What I took away from it is just to really, really soak in when it feels good and understand that it’s possible when it feels bad. The beautiful thing about Evita for me – beyond all of the wonderful people I met and all of the wonderful work we’re doing – is that I never thought I would be a part of something so celebrated, because of the way that I’ve been conditioned to believe that I wouldn’t be.

I read somewhere that Gal Gadot wants to back as an Evil Queen for spinoff of sequel of SW la

[Disney's Divinity]

I could tell the Queen's "death" left an opening for a sequel (much like Magnifico being imprisoned at the end of Wish left an opening for possible sequels if the original did well). Gadot's Queen was my favorite thing about this, so of course I'd love it, but a sequel would just be burning money at this point. Would it even have value in streams?

Here's what she said exactly.

The Wonder Woman actress, 40, told Us Weekly exclusively that she’d “love” to reprise her role as the Evil Queen in a potential spinoff film seven months after the release of the fantasy musical. “I would love to do that. Yes,” Gadot said at the Women’s Guild Cedars-Sinai Snow Ball Gala, where she was honored with the Hollywood Icon Award, in Beverly Hills on Thursday. “Tell [Disney CEO] Bob [Iger]. Bob, I’ll do that.”

I don't think they will make her wish come true

[Disney's Divinity]

The Dwarfs, Bandits, and Zegler were probably the weakest parts for me. Well, it was more a hodgepodge of strengths and weaknesses with all the cast members really, but Gadot is really the only part that drove me to buy the film on 4K and see it in theaters. Without her, I probably would've passed. I do wish they had had a dub singer for the song though.
