5 min readThe Snow White actress who turned a $270 million movie into a career-ending disaster
Rachel Zegler had every reason to believe Snow White would be the role that made her a star. Instead, it became the role that destroyed her career.

The original sin: arrogance and a closed mouth
The trouble started long before the movie's release. In 2020, Zegler called Jeremy Renner a "racist, sexist, transphobic, garbage monster" based on allegations that were never proven and that Renner has consistently denied. When a user told her to learn the facts before speaking, she replied: "Better catch my mouth cause she running." The hosts find this level of dismissiveness staggering for someone early in their career. "This is some shit that I would... this is like talk to the hand," Asmongold says, comparing it to something a fourth-grader would say.

- 4 (09:12) **The Fatal Mistake: Calling the Original "Weird"** - Zegler's comments about the original 1937 Snow White, calling its love story "weird" and saying the prince "literally stalks her," are identified as a major self-inflicted wound.
- 5 (12:22) **Joking About Her Co-Star's Scenes Being Cut** - Zegler is shown oddly excited about the possibility that her co-star Andrew Burnap's scenes could be cut, a statement the hosts interpret as incredibly bitchy and unprofessional.
