EXCLUSIVE: Although her upcoming breakout role as Maria in Steven Spielberg’s new retelling of West Side Story doesn’t bow till this winter, Rachel Zegler looks to have already found her next big role. Sources tell Deadline that Zegler is set to star as Snow White in Disney’s live-action adaptation of the film that started it all for the studio’s legendary slate of animated features. Marc Webb will direct, with Marc Platt producing. Production is expected to start in 2022.

quote:


“Rachel’s extraordinary vocal abilities are just the beginning of her gifts. Her strength, intelligence and optimism will become an integral part of rediscovering the joy in this classic Disney fairytale,” Webb said.

She is whiter than I thought but the character is called Snow White because her skin is white as snow. So, yeah….

Wonder if they will cast Scarlett Johansson for Tiana if they ever do a live action Princess and the Frog movie?

They can give her pale face but once they do, I never want to hear another word about black face.

Snow White is almost 100 years old and one of the worst Disney movies outside of the Dwarves.

It is interesting that the same actress will play Maria in WestSide and Snow White in the same year.

And It’ll be funny to see if they actually have dwarves or not.

20 years ago if you announced that Snow White was going to be played by a half Polish half Puerto Rican actress, no one would've batted an eye.

Now it's a reason for folded arms and shaking heads.

It's a god damn work of art. Every Disney animated feature was less and less beautiful, until they got to the computer age.
