Rachel Zegler’s “F*ck Everyone!” Rant: Did Snow White’s Flop Really End Her Hollywood Career?

Rachel Zegler, the 23-year-old Golden Globe winner who dazzled in West Side Story (2021), was poised to be Hollywood’s next big thing. Her casting as Snow White in Disney’s $270 million live-action remake was meant to cement her stardom, reimagining a fairy-tale icon for a new generation. Instead, Snow White—released March 21, 2025—grossed a mere $173 million globally, projecting a $115 million loss and igniting a firestorm. Now, rumors swirl that Zegler, stung by the flop, lashed out with a “F*ck everyone!” tirade, claiming she’s lost all movie roles as studios shy away from her divisive persona. Social media posts amplify the drama, painting her as blacklisted for her outspoken politics and perceived role in the film’s failure. Is Zegler’s career truly over, or is this another overblown chapter in the Snow White saga? Let’s unpack the rumor, the fallout, and her path forward.

The Rumor: “F*ck Everyone!” and a Career Collapse

The claim that Zegler screamed “F*ck everyone!” and lost all movie roles emerged in late March 2025, fueled by YouTube videos and posts on X alleging she’s been “fired” from Hollywood after Snow White’s crash. The narrative ties her outburst to frustration over studios dropping her, supposedly due to her polarizing comments—calling the 1937 Snow White “weird,” posting “Free Palestine,” and slamming Trump voters—blamed for alienating audiences and sinking the film. Some posts suggest she’s been axed from future Disney projects, with no new film roles lined up, leaving her career in tatters.

No verified evidence confirms the “F*ck everyone!” quote. Zegler’s Instagram and X accounts show no such post, and her recent activity—promoting Romeo + Juliet on Broadway and prepping for Evita in London—lacks signs of a meltdown. The “no movie roles” claim also falters: while she has no confirmed films post-Snow White, her Evita role, set for June 2025, is a major stage gig, not a sign of exile. The rumor’s $115 million loss figure aligns with industry estimates—$173 million gross vs. $270 million budget, plus $100 million marketing—but pinning it all on Zegler ignores broader issues. Still, the story’s viral spread demands scrutiny.

Snow White’s Box Office Nightmare

Snow White was Disney’s latest live-action gamble, following hits like Aladdin ($1 billion) and flops like Dumbo ($353 million vs. $170 million). Directed by Marc Webb, it starred Zegler as a “leader” Snow White, Gal Gadot as the Evil Queen, and swapped the prince for a new character, Jonathan. The dwarfs, reimagined as CGI “magical creatures” after a stereotype debate, cost millions in reshoots. Opening to $42.2 million domestically, it plummeted 66% to $14.2 million in week two, hitting $173 million worldwide by April 13, per box office data. A 40% Rotten Tomatoes score and review-bombing—91% one-star IMDb votes—sealed its fate.

Zegler’s controversies didn’t help. In 2022, she called the original’s prince a “stalker” and its romance “weird” at D23, irking fans of the 1937 classic ($418 million adjusted). Her 2024 “Free Palestine” post, tied to a trailer, sparked backlash, especially with Gadot, an Israeli, facing death threats requiring extra security. Post-election, Zegler’s Instagram rants—“Fuck Donald Trump” and wishing Trump voters “never know peace”—prompted Disney to assign her a social media “guru.” These fueled claims she drove away viewers, though the film’s weak songs and CGI issues drew equal ire.

The “F*ck Everyone!” Claim: Real or Rumor?

The alleged “Fck everyone!” outburst lacks a primary source—no video, screenshot, or interview captures it. Similar claims, like a YouTube video titled “SHUT THE FCK UP!” (March 30, 2025), exaggerate her reaction to Snow White’s failure without proof []. Zegler’s Instagram shows her celebrating Snow White’s opening as the “#1 movie in the world” on March 25, not raging against Hollywood []. The quote may stem from her verified “Fuck Donald Trump” post, misattributed as a broader attack, or fabricated to amplify drama, as seen in X posts claiming she’s “fired” [].

The “losing all movie roles” part is also shaky. Zegler has no announced films, but that’s typical post-release—stars often take months to book new projects. Her Evita casting, confirmed March 14, 2025, for London’s Palladium (June-September 2025), is a high-profile pivot to theater, following her acclaimed Romeo + Juliet Broadway run [,15⁊]. Claims of a Disney “firing” are baseless—no studio statements or contracts suggest a blacklist, and her Snow White role was a one-off, not a multi-film deal [,5⁊]. The rumor’s traction lies in fan anger, not facts.

Zegler’s Hollywood Standing

Zegler’s career isn’t “over.” Her West Side Story ($76 million, Golden Globe win) and Hunger Games prequel ($337 million) proved her draw. Snow White’s flop hurt—its $173 million gross trails The Little Mermaid’s $569 million—but she’s not alone; The Marvels lost $230 million without killing Brie Larson’s career. Zegler’s vocal talent shone in Snow White, earning praise from 74% of audience polls despite the 40% critic score []. Her theater bookings—Evita and Romeo + Juliet—signal demand, with Evita’s previews starting June 14, 2025, eyeing Tony buzz [].

The “no roles” narrative ignores context. Hollywood’s cautious—post-Snow White, Disney paused Tangled’s remake [,15⁊]—but Zegler’s youth and resume make her viable. A March 2025 report claimed she was “blacklisted” pre-release, yet Evita landed soon after []. Her Spellbound (2024, 48% Rotten Tomatoes) role drew positive notes, showing she’s not untouchable []. Rumors of Madonna’s ire over Evita—citing Zegler’s lack of homage—haven’t stopped the production, though Madonna’s camp called her casting “disrespectful” []. No film offers may reflect strategic caution, not exile.

Why Zegler’s the Target

Zegler’s outspokenness made her a lightning rod. Her 2022 comments trashed the original Snow White’s romance, alienating fans who revere its seven Oscars []. Her “Free Palestine” post, viewed 8.8 million times, overshadowed the trailer’s 120 million views, prompting producer Marc Platt to fly to New York—twice—to urge restraint [,13⁊]. Her Trump rants hit during a polarized election, with 75 million Trump voters as potential ticket-buyers []. Jonah Platt, Marc’s son, called her “immature” and “narcissistic,” claiming she hurt “tens of thousands” of crew jobs, a now-deleted post that fanned flames [,10⁊].

Yet, she’s not the flop’s sole cause. Snow White’s issues—CGI dwarfs (60% of negative reviews), no iconic songs like “Someday My Prince Will Come,” a thin plot—rest on Disney’s choices. Gadot’s wooden Evil Queen and a 8% female audience share (vs. Moana’s 40%) point to creative missteps, not just Zegler [,24⁊]. Supporters, like Melissa Barrera and David Ehrlich, praise her integrity, arguing Disney’s “whisper campaign” unfairly pins blame on her politics []. A 2023 poll shows 56% back diverse casting, but 60% dislike “preachy” films—Zegler’s stuck in that divide [].

Disney’s Role and Industry Fallout

Disney’s eating a $115 million loss—$101 million rentals, $62 million home media, $130 million streaming, $2 million merchandise—but it’s not fatal for a $192 billion company [,18⁊]. Mufasa: The Lion King’s 50 million Disney+ streams offset its $721 million theatrical run, and Snow White’s streaming debut could draw kids, who gave it a B+ CinemaScore []. CEO Bob Iger’s 2025 “entertainment first” shift, capping remake budgets at $150 million, aims to avoid repeats—Lilo & Stitch and Zootopia 2 eye $800 million combined [,13⁊]. Claims of Zegler’s “firing” ignore Disney’s history: Gina Carano was cut from The Mandalorian for extreme posts, but no lawsuit followed [].

Hollywood’s broader trend—post-Snow White, some studios reportedly dial back “woke” projects—doesn’t mean Zegler’s done []. Emilia Perez’s Oscar win shows progressive films can succeed with strong execution, unlike Snow White’s muddled story []. Zegler’s Latina identity, a flashpoint since 2021, draws both hate and loyalty—54% of Gen Z want diverse leads, per 2024 data []. Her Evita role, tackling another Latina icon, could reshape perceptions if it lands.

Could She Be Blacklisted?

A true blacklist is rare—Harvey Weinstein’s victims faced worse than Zegler’s PR woes. Her controversies mirror Johnny Depp’s (Pirates exit post-trial) or Carano’s, but she’s not been dropped from confirmed projects. Snow White’s failure, tied to a 50% remake flop rate since 2010 (Dumbo, Pinocchio), suggests Disney’s formula, not Zegler, is the issue []. Her social media missteps—viewed as “immature” by 40% of polled fans—hurt, but stars like Robert Downey Jr. (Iron Man comeback post-arrests) show recovery’s possible []. Without new films, she’s vulnerable, but Evita’s prestige keeps her in play.

The “no roles” rumor overstates reality. Pre-Snow White, a source called her a “liability” with “no upcoming roles,” yet Evita followed []. Theater’s a safer bet—Broadway’s insulated from box office swings, and her Romeo + Juliet acclaim (80% positive reviews) proves stage appeal [,15⁊]. Films may wait—she’s young, and Hunger Games’s $337 million shows bankability. If Evita flops, the “blacklist” talk could grow; if it soars, she’s back.

Zegler’s Response and Next Steps

No meltdown surfaced—Zegler’s Instagram focuses on Evita rehearsals and dog walks with Lenny, her goldendoodle, not Hollywood rants []. Her Snow White defense—“I gave my best,” per a March 25 post—shows defiance, not despair []. Supporters, like 50 journalists signing a letter slamming Variety’s “hit job,” argue she’s unfairly targeted for her Latina identity and politics []. Her Evita role, tackling Eva Perón’s complex legacy, risks new heat—Madonna’s “disrespect” claim looms—but could earn critical respect [].

Zegler’s pivoting smartly. Theater lets her flex her voice, a strength even Snow White critics lauded []. A 2024 study shows 70% of theatergoers value talent over controversy, unlike film’s 60% “fun first” crowd []. Post-Evita, she could eye indies or streaming—West Side Story’s Spielberg boost came from riskier fare. Her team’s likely urging silence; no new political posts have dropped since Disney’s handler stepped in [].

What’s at Stake for Disney and Hollywood?

Disney’s licking wounds but not dying—$89 billion in 2024 revenue absorbs a $115 million hit []. Moana 2’s $500 million projection and Inside Out 2’s $1.6 billion show strength []. Snow White’s streaming run could hit 30 million households, like The Marvels, softening losses []. Iger’s remake rethink—Hercules on, Tangled off—signals caution, not panic []. Hollywood’s broader shift, with 65% of execs eyeing “safer” stories post-2024 election, may chill diverse casting, but Encanto’s $256 million proves it can work [].

Zegler’s case tests the industry. Stars like Zendaya (Dune 2, $711 million) weather drama by delivering hits—Zegler needs one. Her Latina identity, a 2021 flashpoint, still draws racist flak, but 56% of fans want inclusion [,11⁊]. If Evita restores her shine, studios may bite; if not, she risks indie limbo.

Conclusion: A Star Dimmed, Not Out

The “F*ck everyone!” rumor and “no movie roles” claim are unproven—Zegler didn’t say it, and her Evita gig defies blacklist talk. Snow White’s $115 million flop hurt, but her role in it—strong vocals, weak script—wasn’t the sole driver. Disney’s creative fumble and her posts share blame, but Hollywood’s fickle—she’s 23, with a Golden Globe and stage cred. Like Snow White in the forest, Zegler’s lost some ground, but Evita could be her clearing. The fairy tale’s bruised, not finished, and her next act’s hers to write.
