Rachel Zegler's breakout: Disney's Snow white under fire
Disney's "Snow White," an adaptation of one of the best-known fairy tales, will debut in cinemas in 2025. It's worth following Rachel Zegler's career, for whom this significant title will likely serve as a springboard to the upper echelons of Hollywood.

Rachel Ziegler began her Hollywood journey at 17 when the legendary director Steven Spielberg chose her for the lead role in the "West Side Story" remake alongside Ansel Elgort and Mike Faist. Since then, her career has gained momentum — she has appeared in "Shazam! Fury of the Gods," "The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes," and voiced a character in "Spellbound."
Her latest film project is Disney's "Snow White," an adaptation of one of the most famous fairy tales by the Brothers Grimm from the early 19th century. Regrettably, the film has already been targeted by racist and misogynistic attacks online. It may be hard to believe, but some are outraged that Zegler's skin isn't "white enough."
Rachel Zegler is having her moment now
The actress, now 23 years old, graces the latest "Variety" magazine cover. At an event to celebrate this, she wore a striking ensemble. Her outfit, which subtly emphasised her figure with a black bra and high-waisted briefs, garnered considerable attention on the red carpet. The actress's hair was styled naturally, beautifully framing her delicate facial features, and subtle makeup accentuated her natural beauty. She chose elegant black heels and silver jewellery, including rings and earrings, to complete the look.
