Rachel Zegler is likely one of the many actors to have a notable movie launched as a part of the 2025 film schedule. Earlier this 12 months, she marked the discharge of Disney’s Snow White, the most recent live-action remake from the Home of Mouse. It might seem that at this level, the movie hasn’t hit the heights of a few of its predecessors. All of the whereas, Zegler remains to be making waves inside the Hollywood panorama. On that notice, she simply landed her follow-up flick, and it’ll pair her with a beloved Oscar winner.
The 23-year-old singer and actress is becoming a member of the dramedy movie She Will get It From Me. Per Selection, the movie will see Rachel Zegler workforce up with Marisa Tomei, because the pair will play mom and daughter. Julia von Heinz is ready to direct the movie, which is predicated on a real story. It tells the story of an engaged lady named Nicky (Zegler), who finds herself thrust right into a state of affairs the place she finds and reconnects along with her beginning mom. A short synopsis reads, “YouTube is filled with tearful household reunions, however no one movies the messy aftermath.”
Preliminary plot particulars counsel that Marisa Tomei’s character, Charlotte, is kind of a pistol. Not solely is she apparently a former rocker, however she additionally apparently has a behavior of popping drugs. Tomei is not any stranger to taking up roles which can be a little bit over-the-top in addition to mother characters (which she has regrets about). Based mostly on the little data we have now on Julia von Heinz’s movie up to now, I’m getting vibes of 2015’s Ricki and the Flash. That movie has its charms, and I’m hopeful that this upcoming one does as nicely.
What’ll actually be intriguing to see, after all, is how the My Cousin Vinny star mixes it up with Rachel Zegler on display screen. I’m undecided they’re the primary two actresses as peg as portraying a mother-daughter duo. Nevertheless, I do just like the notion of it, and it may very well be enjoyable to see them bounce off one another, particularly in what may very well be a humorous and emotionally messy movie.
It goes with out saying that Rachel Zegler has been gaining some severe notoriety over the previous a number of years. She burst onto the cinematic scene in a giant approach by means of her function as Maria in Steven Spielberg’s West Aspect Story, which additionally marked a significant occasion of Latina illustration. Additionally amongst her live-action credit are The Starvation Video games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes (which she almost turned down) and the horror comedy Y2K. She even dipped her toes into the superhero style with Shazam! Fury of the Gods and, even lately, Zegler’s been fancasted for Marvel roles.
A lot has been mentioned concerning the New Jersey native’s function in Snow White, as some took subject along with her casting. She additionally drew backlash for making feedback concerning the OG movie, saying that she felt some facets of it had been outdated and that the remake would treatment them. In the end, the Marc Webb directed-film opened to lukewarm critiques and, whereas it topped the field workplace in its opening weekend, the film has since underperformed.
Nonetheless, it doesn’t appear as if Rachel Zegler is being hampered by the live-action Disney flick’s efficiency. Not solely that, however critics who reviewed Snow White singled out her efficiency as a spotlight of the movie. I used to be already curious as to what Zegler would do subsequent however, now, I’m particularly pumped to see her share the display screen with the good Marisa Tomei in She Will get It From Me.
