Inside Disney’s ‘Snow White’ Premiere With Rachel Zegler and Gal Gadot
According To The variety When Rachel Zegler stepped onto the red carpet at the world premiere of Disney’s “Snow White” on Saturday afternoon in Hollywood, the newest Disney princess was greeted by a smaller-than-usual assembly of photographers to capture her light pink ballgown and dazzling diamonds. Zegler’s co-star Gal Gadot, who plays the Evil Queen, soon followed, also smiling dutifully for the cameras assembled in the center of the tented venue outside the El Capitan Theatre that hosted the pre-party celebration ahead of the 3:30 p.m. screening. Instead of the usual lineup of dozens of red carpet reporters, the only interviewers they encountered were employed by Disney, like Jodi Benson, who voiced Ariel in the studio’s 1989 animated classic “The Little Mermaid.” Such was the “scaled-back” premiere of “Snow White,” which hits theaters on March 21. Cast members Martin Klebba, Jason Kravits, George Salazar, Andy Grotelueschen, Emilia Faucher, Lorena Andrea, Dujonna Gift, and Idris Kargbo, as well as director Marc Webb, screenwriter Erin Cressida Wilson, producers Marc Platt and Jared LeBoff, songwriters Justin Paul and Benj Pasek, composer Jeff Morrow and cinematographer Mandy Walker also walked the red carpet. Scheduled for the hour and a half before the show began, the pre-party celebration was tucked away behind the El Capitan Theatre. It featured plenty of sponsored activities to keep youngsters (including children from the San Fernando and Malibu chapters of the Boys & Girls Club) occupied while they waited — including a magic mirror nail polish installation from Essie, Joffrey’s Coffee & Tea serving a “Just One Bite” brew and a MiracleGro booth where guests could make a flower bouquet to bring home after the film. Allegra was also part of the co-branded campaign with dwarves Sneezy and Sleepy prominently featured. Guests also sipped on apple-infused drinks — appletinis, sparkling cider and Shirley Temples, a nod to the fact that the legendary kid star presented Walt Disney with an honorary Oscar for the original “Snow White” in 1938. The premiere event continues Zegler and Gadot’s promotional tour for the movie. On March 2, the pair took the stage at the Dolby Theatre (just across Hollywood Blvd.) to present during the Oscars. Then, Zegler jetted off to promote the film internationally with Webb and perform the new single “Waiting on a Wish” — traveling first to Tokyo where she was joined on stage by Sakura Kiryu, who provides the Japanese dubbing voice of Snow White, then to Spain, where she performed the track with the Alcázar of Segovia Castle as a backdrop. (The medieval castle inspired the one that appears in the 1937 animated film.) Gadot made the press round in NYC, including appearances on “The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon,” “Live With Kelly and Mark” and “Good Morning America.” The premiere event continues Zegler and Gadot’s promotional tour for the movie.
