Criticized By Netizens For Playing Snow White, Rachel Zegler Responds Casually
JAKARTA - Rachel Zegler received various criticisms from netizens after it was announced that she would play Snow White in the new version of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Instead of responding to negative comments about this, the West Side Story (2021) actress responded wisely.
In an interview on Actors to Actors with Andrew Garfield, Rachel revealed that criticism of her has been trending on Twitter for two days. That happened because many did not agree that he became Snow White because he had Latin blood.
"After (the role as Snow White) was announced, the impact was huge because everyone was angry that it was trending on Twitter," Rachel said.
"Those people need to be educated. We have to keep loving them the right way. In the end I have a job to do and am excited to do it, because I will be a Latina princess," she added.
As an actress who has starred in various film genres, criticism is certainly not something new for this American and Colombian mulatto actress. Therefore he prefers to stay focused on the role entrusted to him so that the public can judge the results later.
"At some point I have to stop and think. I'm not going to read the bad or the good and start doing something out there," he said.
The new version of Snow White is planned to be released in 2023. Besides Rachel Zegler, Gal Gadot and Andrew Burnap are also participating in the project. (Alit/VOI)
