The discussion followed her appearance in the 2025 live-action adaptation of Snow White, a film that was intended to bring new life to the classic 1937 animated story. In this remake, Gal Gadot starred alongside Rachel Zegler, but differences in the political views of the leading actors led to noticeable controversy surrounding the project.
Box Office Struggles and Critical Reaction
Despite the high-profile cast, the Snow White remake struggled to connect with audiences and reportedly did not recoup its production budget, resulting in what many have described as a box office failure. The film faced tough criticism from reviewers as well, earning a low 39% Rotten score on Rotten Tomatoes. Critics voiced a range of opinions about the film’s shortcomings and the creative decisions involved.
Future Prospects for the Evil Queen Character
Although the film faced major hurdles, Gadot’s willingness to revisit the Evil Queen has left open the possibility of a sequel or spinoff, at least from her perspective. However, the combination of box office disappointment and controversy makes it unlikely that Disney will revisit this version of the classic anytime soon. Nonetheless, Gadot’s enthusiasm and openness to reprising her role could keep discussions about a Gal Gadot Disney return alive among fans and industry watchers.
