Brothers Grimm’s classic tale inspired many adaptations in the past—including Snow White and the Huntsman starring Kristen Stewart and Charlize Theron and Mirror Mirror starring Lily Collins and Julia Roberts. These projects haven’t been affiliated with Disney and their live adaptation will draw inspiration from the classic 1937 animated movie.

Marc Webb, best known for his work on The Amazing Spider-Man movies, has been tapped as the director. Production is expected to start in 2022, and Gadot will be joined by Rachel Zegler, the star of Steven Spielberg’s upcoming West Side Story, in the role of Snow White.

Gadot is best known for her work on the Wonder Woman movies, but she’s been trying to make a shift to more versatile roles. She most recently appeared in Netflix’s action flick Red Notice alongside Dwayne Johnson and Ryan Reynolds, and she’s set to play the lead role in Patty Jenkins’ Cleopatra biopic.

Director Marc Webb confirmed the news to Deadline, saying that Zegler’s “strength, intelligence, and optimism will become an integral part of rediscovering the joy in this classic Disney fairytale.”

Zegler also shared her excitement about the casting in a series of social media posts.  

Rachel Zegler still hasn’t made her official movie debut. She stars as the lead in Steven Spielberg’s West Side Story, but the feature won’t be out until later this year. She got the role of Maria back in 2018, responding to an open casting call and beating 30,000 other applicants.

Previously, Zegler was known for her YouTube channel, which she started in 2015. She previously uploaded covers of popular songs on it, but now mostly does vlogs and clips about her life in Hollywood.

Besides Snow White and the Seven Dwarves and West Side Story, Zegler will also be part of DC’s superhero movie Shazam! Fury of the Gods. She will “play a mysterious key role” in the latter one, but exact details remain unknown.
