Rachel Zegler is set to become a live-action Disney princess with the upcoming film Snow White. Now, however, Rachel Zegler could be making yet another appearance in a different Disney-owned brand: the Marvel Cinematic Universe aka MCU.
As of this writing, there’s nothing set in stone – this is only a rumor and it should be treated as such. Nevertheless, since the Snow White star has been on good terms with the studio, it wouldn’t be much of a shock if Rachel Zegler had the opportunity to work within the MCU.
The rumor regarding Zegler and her possible Marvel role was shared by insider @MyTimeToShineH on X. Here’s what they shared on the social media platform:

It’s worth noting that not only is this a rumor, but @MyTimeToShineH merely adds that “Marvel Studios wants Rachel Zegler for a role.” This does not indicate that she has had any official talks with the studio, much less that there could be any actual deals in place. But it does seem like a reasonable conversation that the execs at Marvel Studios have had at some point, and so it does beg repeating the question, what role would she play?
As for that question, there is no answer. There are numerous Marvel characters that the franchise could not only adapt, but other characters that could be reinvented with new variants, so there are certainly no limits on which character Rachel Zegler could play. Perhaps it all depends on how the Snow White movie performs and whether or not Disney would like to keep her involved with their company.
Ultimately, we’ll just have to see what happens. For now, however, fans can expect to see Rachel Zegler appear as Snow White before we have any chance of seeing her in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Stay tuned to ScreenGeek for any additional updates as we have them.
