Is Rachel Zegler Really Joining the MCU? Fans React to the Controversial Rumor

There is a new rumor surrounding Snow White actress Rachel Zegler and her potential involvement in the Marvel Cinematic Universe! The rumor originates from scooper MyTimeToShineHello, who took to X to share the news.

Unfortunately for Zegler, the public reaction has been largely negative, with many replying to the tweet to express that they do not want her in the MCU in any role whatsoever. This backlash may stem from the ongoing controversies surrounding her.

Zegler has faced racist backlash since being cast as Snow White, and her comments about her character and the movie have angered many people. More recently, she almost lost her lead role due to controversial remarks about Donald Trump—a situation that led her to retract her statements and apologize.

Zegler already has experience in the superhero genre, having played Anthea in Shazam: Fury of the Gods last year. Despite strong performances, including Zegler’s, the film underperformed at the box office and received significant criticism, unlike its 2019 predecessor. This even prompted the lead actor, Zachary Levi, to question his future involvement in the franchise.

Zegler is not the only actress recently rumored to join the Marvel Cinematic Universe. MyTimeToShineHello also reported that Wednesday star Jenna Ortega is in talks to join the MCU—a rumor that was received more favorably, with fans eagerly sharing their suggestions.

Joining the MCU could offer Zegler a fresh start in the superhero genre, but she may need more than just a role to regain the public’s favor.
