How Gal Gadot’s Shocking Death Threat Ordeal After Rachel Zegler’s Palestine Post Turned a Disney Fairytale into a Real-Life Nightmare

In a twist wilder than any Disney plot, Gal Gadot’s starring role in Snow White has morphed from a fairytale dream into a chilling saga of death threats and beefed-up security—all sparked by co-star Rachel Zegler’s explosive pro-Palestine tweet! The Israeli actress, famed for Wonder Woman, found herself in the crosshairs after Zegler’s August 2024 post, “and always remember, free Palestine,” racked up 8.9 million views, igniting a firestorm. What started as a promotional push for Disney’s $270 million live-action remake has spiraled into a jaw-dropping clash of politics, passion, and peril that’s left fans reeling—and cheering Gadot’s resilience!

The drama unfolded when Zegler, 23, dropped her bombshell alongside the Snow White trailer, a move insiders say blindsided Disney execs. Variety reports that producer Marc Platt jetted to New York, pleading with Zegler to delete it, but she stood firm. The fallout? A “spike” in death threats against Gadot, 39, a proud Israeli and ex-IDF soldier who’s vocally backed her homeland since Hamas’s October 7, 2023, attack. Disney didn’t flinch—hiring extra security to shield the mother of four, turning her promo tour into a fortress. “She didn’t grasp what this meant for Gal, the film, anyone,” an insider fumed, pinning the chaos on Zegler’s naivety.

But here’s the shock: this nightmare’s flipped the script! Gadot’s not crumbling—she’s soaring. Fans on X are hailing her grit, with posts like, “Gal’s a warrior, threats won’t stop her!” Her Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony in March 2025, despite pro-Palestine pickets, cemented her as a defiant icon. Meanwhile, Zegler’s defiance has split the crowd—some laud her “bravery,” others blame her for tanking the film’s $43 million opening, a flop against its $370 million budget. Critics rave about Zegler’s Snow White but slam Gadot’s “dull” Evil Queen, yet the real story’s off-screen: a clash of ideals in a polarized world.

Disney’s scrambling—scaled-back premieres, a “social media guru” for Zegler—shows the stakes. Gadot’s Instagram, flooded with Palestinian flags, and Zegler’s with Zionist jabs, reveal a fanbase at war. Yet, amid the hate, a silver lining emerges: Gadot’s unshaken, her star power unshattered. “I’m Jewish, and we’ve had enough of Jew-hatred,” she declared at an ADL event, turning pain into purpose.

This isn’t just a Hollywood spat—it’s a wake-up call. Public figures wield words like weapons, and the fallout can be deadly. As Snow White fades at the box office, Gadot’s real-life heroism steals the show, proving she’s more than a princess or queen—she’s a survivor. The question lingers: can Tinseltown handle this much reality?
