Pretty sure the open call was for publicity. Sounds like Rachel was scouted out before they even started the open call. So they had clear front runners before they opened the role to the 30k people she was supposedly “up against”.

For anyone saying there’s no way 30,000 people auditioned: I was one of them! It was an open casting call and anyone slightly resembling the description signed onto any agency got the opportunity to turn in a self-taped audition. You could choose to audition as either Anita or Maria, had to sing a song and everything. I was just a girl in High School and I got to turn one in from South America, so I don’t doubt that everyone else who got the casting call turned in their self tapes too. Now obviously not all tapes even made it anywhere near the directors, but I wouldn’t doubt that 30,000 if not more people auditioned.

These latest comments are so miserable. She's a talented actress and singer and all people care about is how she "disrespected" Snow White, as if they even cared about Snow White before that. They're just jumping on the hate wagon because there was a new, young, beautiful, poc actress to hate on. When men are the ones hating on the movie/show they're on, you're all like "he's so relatable!", "he's so real for that". She just didn't sugar coat her words for you and you got upset. I get being jealous of her if you're a teenager but, most of yall are adults bullying someone more successful than you. That's genuinely one of the most miserable thing to do. Grow up. She has a lot of potential to be an A-List actress and I'm looking forward to see her in future projects.

@ekspatriat 4 ай бұрын

Hope she fails. She brought it on herself. Her SnowWhite interviews are so cringy and her 'Weird Weird' statement will haunt her. Why do you think Disney has put a huge delay on the movie? Eh Eh? Because she dissed Disney and the customers and the original animated movie. Her later appearances are so different because Disney gave her a damn good Ass Kicking! They may even replace her for that...the cow.

@melindamercier6811 3 ай бұрын

Agreed. Honestly, Disney disrespected Snow White, she was just egging them on. As did Gal Gadot might I add, who didn’t even get a lick of hate directed at her. People just chose to dump on the young one. She is very talented and will hopefully go far. There are plenty of actors/actresses that don’t deserve a platform anymore and need to go away bc they say AND DO horrendous things directed at others. This girl gives an opinion and she’s hated worldwide? Make it make sense. Walking PR disaster? Sure. Worthy of cancelling? Not so much.

@@allysongonzalez8659 People have always been like this because it's a necessity. People need to hate and trash others. It's an outlet, something to absorb all the pain and misery that they feel. They do it to make themselves feel better, but it's extremely temporary. Two minutes later and you're back to feeling sad again. People need someone to hate on, because it helps them deal with all the dysfunction in their lives. It's always been this way. But sometimes there's celebrities who deserve it. She currently fits into that category. She can change and be better, but it's either too late or she just needs to chill for a while.

I don't doubt that Rachel Zegler got the role of Maria in the film over thousands of others. There was an open call for the film and thousands of people made tapes. Only the most promising and most suitable candidates would have got to do further tests for the film. Likely that only a small percentage of those thousands would have got a callback, there would have been no point doing further tests for the film with them if they weren't at all suitable and didn't have the skills and talent required. Rachel delivered and it's not surprising she has been cast in a number of other Hollywood films since then.

She’s not lying… I don’t know the actual numbers obviously but I made an audition tape for west side story too, and I was just a girl from south america who had just gotten signed onto an Agency. It was an open Casting call so anyone slightly fitting the description (and I mean slightly cause I don’t look Latino at all) got the opportunity to turn in a self tape audition and the script given was either the one from Maria or Anita. If i did it from South America, imagine how many others from all over the world turned in their auditions too. This was back in 2016 yet the movie didn’t come out till years later, so they did take their time to pick and choose the actors.

@@Guess_Whos_Depressed Are YOU serious? At what point in the interview did she say “they watched all 30 000 and chose me out of all of them”? The point she’s making is that out of all 30 000 auditions that were sent in she was lucky enough to be one of the ones that were seen… and ended up being the one they chose, really not that hard to understand
