Andrew Burnap has broken his silence amid the escalating drama surrounding Rachel Zegler and Disney’s troubled “Snow White” remake, a film that has spiraled into one of Hollywood’s most public fiascos. What began as a promising reimagining of a beloved classic has devolved into a chaotic narrative of failed expectations and behind-the-scenes tensions.
Zegler, the new face of Snow White, sparked outrage with her controversial comments dismissing the original 1937 film as outdated, even labeling its iconic prince a “stalker.” Her outspoken nature, initially seen as refreshing, quickly turned into fodder for relentless backlash, with social media erupting in mockery and disdain. The film’s box office performance mirrored the controversy, plummeting to a staggering 66% drop in ticket sales after its opening weekend.
As the drama unfolded, tensions between Zegler and her co-star Burnap became palpable. Insiders claim Zegler’s insecurity led her to undermine Burnap’s role, as she sought to dominate the narrative around her character. This rift, compounded by Zegler’s outspoken political views, including her controversial stance on the Israel-Palestine conflict, has further alienated audiences and strained her relationships with co-stars.
In a shocking twist, whispers suggest Zegler may have actively sought to sabotage Burnap’s career, feeling betrayed by his silence amidst the chaos. While he remains tight-lipped, his absence from promotional events and cryptic social media posts hint at a growing resentment toward Zegler’s actions.
As Disney scrambles to salvage its reputation, rethinking its live-action strategy, the fallout from “Snow White” continues to unravel. With Zegler facing an uncertain future and Burnap quietly seething, the question remains: will this disastrous chapter redefine how Hollywood approaches beloved classics, or will it be just another cautionary tale lost in the annals of film history? The stakes couldn’t be higher as the industry watches closely.
