Gal Gadot and Rachel Zegler were seen posing for photos together at the scaled-back “Snow White” premiere at El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood, Calif., on Saturday.
The two co-stars, who are reportedly “not friends” and clash over politics, wrapped their arms around each other as they stood between their cast members to promote the live-action remake of the Disney classic, per a fan video shared on X.
Zegler, who plays the film’s titular character, walked the carpet in a light pink, strapless gown and accessorized her look with a sparkling, silver necklace and matching earrings.
The 23-year-old’s makeup consisted of mascara, smoky eyeshadow, a warm blush on her cheekbones and a glossy nude lip.
Gadot, who plays the Evil Queen, wore a black dress with spaghetti straps. The 39-year-old also slicked her hair back and modeled a long necklace.
Both ladies flashed cheerful smiles as they walked the carpet, but a recent report claimed they’re not too fond of each other.
A source told People Friday that they have “nothing in common,” especially since Gadot is “a mom of four kids.”
Their “huge age gap” doesn’t help either, the insider said. They have “very different political views,” which adds “to the tension” that was already surrounding the film.
Zegler has been an outspoken supporter of Palestine throughout the Israel-Hamas war, while Gadot — who was born in Israel and served in the Israeli army — has been a vocal supporter of her home country following the October 2024 attacks.
The “West Side Story” actress also slammed the original version of the Disney movie, telling Variety in 2022, ““There’s a big focus on her love story with a guy who literally stalks her. Weird. So we didn’t do that this time.”
“I was scared of the original version. I think I watched it once and never picked it up again.”
Zegler’s comments led to criticism that the live-action remake and the movie’s lead star are too “woke.”
Gadot is “annoyed by the movie drama,” a source told People.
Prior to the Saturday, it was reported that Disney planned to scale back the Hollywood premiere. Only photographers and a house crew would be allowed on the red carpet, per Variety. The outlet later confirmed that to be true while sharing details from the event.
“The only interviewers [the cast] encountered were employed by Disney,” Variety said.
