NextImg:WATCH: Disney Actress Does Full-180 On ‘Snow White’ After Backlash For Feminist Comments Criticizing Original

Controversial Disney actress Rachel Zegler, a vocal far-Left activist, is singing a different tune about the 1937 animated film “Snow White,” as she faces mounting backlash over her past jarring feminist comments complaining about the Disney classic.

During an interview for Variety with fellow Disney actress Halle Bailey, Zegler gushed over the original “Snow White” as “a monumental moment in film history.”

“The cartoon is so beloved — it’s like a monumental moment in film history. It’s the first feature-length cartoon movie, to the point where it won honorary Oscars, and all these amazing things that happened for that film are the reason that you and I get to sit here today, because it made Disney what it is,” Zegler told Bailey, who starred as Ariel in the live-action version of Disney’s “The Little Mermaid.”

The actress went on to veer away from her past comment, saying she “loves everything the Disney company has put out” since its inception.

Before the Variety interview, Zegler claimed she had only watched the original “Snow White” once as a kid and found it off-putting. “I think I watched it once and never picked it up again. I’m being so serious,” she said.

The 22-year-old also made clear in past interviews that the new “Snow White” flick will not need a man or “true love.”

“It’s no longer 1937, and we absolutely wrote a ‘Snow White’ — she’s not going to be saved by a prince! And she’s not gonna be dreaming about true love,” Zegler said. “She’ll be dreaming about becoming a leader she knows she can be.”

In another example, the actress quipped that Disney could cut out all of Prince Charming’s scenes from the remake, emphasizing how apparently unimportant he is to the story. And perhaps most notably, Zegler said Prince Charming in the original fairytale “stalks” Snow White.

“I mean, you know, the original cartoon came out in 1937 and very evidently so. There’s a big focus on her love story with a guy who literally stalks her. Weird! Weird,” the actress said.

Zegler’s newfound praise for “Snow White” comes on the heels of The Daily Wire/Bentkey’s announcement for its own take on the classic, “Snow White and the Evil Queen,” which is set to be released in 2024 and star actress and Daily Wire host Brett Cooper. Additionally, after the Daily Wire announcement, Disney has pushed back its remark’s release date by a full year.

Following the Disney announcement in October, Daily Wire co-founder Jeremy Boreing said the ongoing actors’ strike in Hollywood would be used as an excuse for the film’s delayed release, but guessed Disney is likely scrambling to reshoot large parts of the film.

“My guess is the SAG strike excuse is just cover and that they are actually reshooting large parts of the movie to make it a more faithful adaptation of their own classic film,” Boreing posted to X, formerly Twitter. “Will be interesting to see how Rachel Zegler and Gal Gadot walk back their previous denouncements and insistence that this movie will be different…”
