Rachel Zegler stands with manicured hands in a deep plum at her hips with a slight smile on her face as she looks at the camera. Her dark hair is half pulled back with a large black bow partially visible. She wears a sleeveless, bodice-style rust-colored dress with one glossy black rose below the hip at right. The background is a teal green with specks of gold scattered throughout. The copy reads: “Disney twenty-three” at top. With “Rachel Zegler Exclusive cover for Disney Snow White” at lower left.

Rachel Zegler Shares Iconic Moments from the Making of Disney’s Snow White

Taking on the lead role in Disney’s Snow White—the live-action reimagining of the animated classic—was a dream come true for lifelong Disney fan Rachel Zegler. “We had the most incredible time making this movie. It was so magical,” Zegler told Disney twenty-three at D23.

Gal Gadot stands facing the camera with both arms outstretched and pressed against a dark teal wall and a determined expression. She wears a black fully open blazer with a black midriff-baring bandeau top and long black leather skirt. The background is a teal green with specks of gold scattered throughout. The copy reads: “Disney twenty-three” at top. With “Gal Gadot Exclusive cover for Disney Snow White” at lower left.

Gal Gadot on Her Dual Transformation in Disney’s Snow White

The opportunity to play the Evil Queen in the new live-action musical Disney’s Snow White was—like the poison apple that tempted the first Disney Princess—too delicious to pass up for Gal Gadot.

The back cover and front cover of the Disney twenty-three publication for Spring 2025 are shown side by side. The back cover, on the left, depicts Sam Wilson in his Captain America garb, seen from the right side, his head bowed and the Captain America shield on his right arm. Red Hulk is reflected in the shield, and the red and white stripes of the American flag appear to be fluttering in the background. The front cover, on the right, depicts two characters from the live-action reimagining of Snow White. The Evil Queen, portrayed by Gal Gadot, is on the left in her blue and crimson crown and deep blue robe with a high collar. She is smiling slightly at the viewer. On the right is Rachel Zegler as Snow White, in her iconic gown with puffy red and blue Sleeves. She is glancing to the left, in the direction of the Evil Queen, and holding a shiny red apple in her right hand, neck high, as if about to take a bite. Both characters are seen from the chest up. Behind the queen is a dark forest. Behind Snow White is a bright forest scene with cute animals and the entrance to a cottage.
