SHAZAM! 2 Star Rachel Zegler Explains Why SNOW WHITE Remake Ditches "Stalker" Prince Love Story

@jst5 - I think she has poor PR skills. I think she tries to say one thing but it comes across badly.

@bobevanz - she's saying he's gay

Disney HATES you (The paying Customer).

She's been told to say all of this intentionally to piss people off for conversation/clicks and is repeating what Disney have told her to say. There's photos of her on her social media as a child dressed up in a Snow White costume so she's definitely liked it as a kid - she's been told to say she only saw it once, she's been told to say the prince is a stalker, etc...

@Forthas - why is she even commenting on this movie? I thought she was striking because of the poor working conditions of having to wear a dress for part of the day.

@Beer85 -

@AzorAhai - ...the movie's plot is literally resolved by true love's kiss.

Also, how is she standing up for what's right? The whole plot is her running away from an evil queen trying to kill her. You think a criminal would just accept dying there?

@Origame - The huntsman (who appears more than your beloved prince) stood for what is right.

Sorry if I offended your offended stance. You are free to champion for love stories where there is no real relationship until the minimum -screentime guy appears and kisses the dead girl.

@Origame - The prince is by no means a main character in the original. The queen, Snow White, the seven dwarves and probably the mirror have more screen time than him. He's secondary at most (weird when he's like the 9th character in order of screen time on a movie with like 10 characters). He's background in my book.

Dude has no name. Appears at the beginning to sing about how in love he is with a girl he just saw. Leaves. Appears at the end to kiss her. Doesn't even fight or have scenes with the villain.

For me, that's a lousy love story. Honestly, interaction, relationship and chemistry with the main character are zero. And the true love's kiss plot sucks. I am not going to say it's childish or anything like that, it is after all an old kid's movie. But, story wise, is so weak and not elaborated upon, taken out of the writer's arse. Honestly, plot wise, Martha twist from Zack Snyder makes better sense.

But again, I'm not here to yuck your yum. You can glorify the original that being "destroyed" here all you like. Heck, you can go rewatch it right now to cleanse the spur taste from this girl's comments.

@Origame - 1) I am not so sure of that, but the fact that it's a close match is already bad sign on itself for the prince's relevance.

2) He comes only to solve the aftermath and do nothing else. Background characters, cameos, or even objects (not characters) can solve a climax. That doesn't make them relevant by themselves. Climax and plot are different by the way. Plot was the queen hunting Snow White. The aftermath was Snow White poisoned, which he solved. He had no hand in actually stopping the queen or the plot of the movie. The queen was already dealt with by then. There was no danger anymore.

3) The whole thing was resolved by the prince? Go rewatch the movie yourself. The queen was dealt with by then. Also, "love" here is just a label, since there was nothing pointing to love except for a kids that came out of nowhere. The writer could have made Snow White return by getting a true friendship handshake and the story wouldn't have changed at all.

4) Again he resolved the aftermath. The plot, the queen and the themes of the story had already been resolved by the time lazy-arse Prince arrived. I would argue that the prince was someone that be cut in the original with minimum changes and no impact to the whole point of the story.

But again you are free to fawn about the love story you see in the original. Campaign for others to feel as strongly about it as you do. I myself think it was acceptable for its time and target audience, but it would be stupid and lazy to adapt it to the T today.

@Origame - 1) That's like 10 min more than what the Prince had in Snow White. And yes. Hannibal Lecter is relevant to the story. The prince is background to Snow White Story.

2) Text book of any story ( if you knew about storytelling) is more than "Here is the character. Oops he is gone for the whole movie. Oh he's back for the payoff". At the beginning of the story he just appeared, sang, didn't cross more than 2 actual words with Snow White. You might see that as love, but I don't.

3) If Snow White dies the vanity teams of the evil queen and the unexpected friendship of the dwarves themes would have already got to their conclusion. It would have been a tragedy. But still delivered the story. The prince was literally just there to have the strong man save the day. But he really didn't even know the queen was a problem, and he didn't even developed any love story besides being bookends to appease happy ending guys. He was just there.

4) And again, if she succeeded, if her senseless evil killed them both... The story would still be a complete story. Same thing if you had any other way of resurrecting Snow White. Getting rid of the prince in this particular story would be very easy and would still have a complete story.


Honestly, Snow White could have been brought back to life by Dopey and the story would have been as good as the original.

@Origame - Tony Stark had way more screen time and a story before the snap.


In truth, while I've seen you like to engage in the minor arguments all day. I've spent my daily dose a few minutes ago. You are free to continue your rant. I may go see this movie, which might suck or not, only time will tell. And the world will move on.

@Origame - I am not trying to change opinions. Pointing out that the prince didn't have a lot going on for him in the original either.

You can not see this new version though. Stick to the masterpiece you think the original to be. Type as hard as you can on your Internet rants trying to convince people to not see this movie. I probably will see it regardless.

Have a nice day.

@Origame - in the original grimm brothers story...snow white was 7...by all means, lets do the actual story...pedophilia sells...at least that's what a large unfortunate block of knuckleheads on this site believe

@MarkCassidy - id say it's funnier how journalists side with Hollywood insulting classic films while expecting to capitalize on said films.

I wonder if I can find any examples...
