In a new interview, "Snow White" star Gal Gadot argued the film was hurt at the box office by pressure on celebrities to speak out against Israel.

  • Gal Gadot suggested that political pressure on celebrities to speak out against Israel contributed to Disney’s Snow White underperforming at the box office, though she acknowledged other factors played a role.

  • The film, starring Gadot and Rachel Zegler, earned $87 million domestically compared to higher-performing Disney remakes; Zegler faced criticism for her pro-Palestine stance during promotion.

  • Gadot emphasized she enjoyed working with Zegler, said her “conscience is clean” regarding support for Israel, and expressed hope for peace and safety for all people.

    She is an occupation and a genocide supporter because she was proud of joining the occupation and genocidal force.

      That’s what I said! I don’t know why you’re arguing with me. It’s bad because she was proud of it. It isn’t bad just because she had to.

      Don’t hold it against people who are against it just because they served. That doesn’t define them. Their choices do. If they serve in the IDF and then work against it, they’re allies. If they don’t serve and work with them, they’re still enemies even though they didn’t serve. To say it a different way, the service isn’t the issue; their choices are.
