I think this article shows that you really can’t win when it comes to the public but also the executives. In different situations people will harp on you for different things, at one moment your heritage is an issue while the next your lack of outwards heritage (in the visual sense ) is another issue .While I do know that the whole point of Snow White was her Snow White skin, I think that in the modern age that part of her character shouldn’t really matter that much in the grand scheme of things and isn’t that import but I can see why people would argue for that point however it is extremely unacceptable to harass Zegler for accepting the role since she is a more than qualified actress who has an incredible singing talent, there was no reason why she shouldn’t accept the role and I don’t think anyone should shame her for her performance on Snow White since it was actually pretty great and I like the the way she acted out the character
