She’s a bad apple.
Megyn Kelly branded Rachel Zegler “a pig” after the star of Disney’s “Snow White” reboot nastily said she wished supporters of President-elect Donald Trump would “never know peace.”
The conservative firebrand gave Zegler, 23, and Disney a piece of her mind during her SiriusXM show Thursday — calling out the media giant for hypocrisy and the young starlet for her poorly articulated political takes.

“Hello, Disney! You’re gonna have to redo your film again, because this woman is a pig, and you fired Gina Carano for far less than this nonsense.”
“There’s something wrong with this person,” Kelly said of Zegler.
Carano was fired from Disney’s hit “The Mandalorian” in 2021 after she compared the treatment of conservatives in contemporary America to the treatment of Jews in Nazi Germany.

Zegler plays the eponymous Disney character “Snow White” in the upcoming live-action remake of the classic cartoon.
The Gen Z star took to Instagram in the wake of the presidential election, calling out Trump supporters for “leaning” the country in a negative direction.
“I find myself speechless in the midst of this,” she wrote in an Instagram Story. “Another four years of hatred, leaning us towards a world I do not want to live in. Leaning us towards a world that will be hard to raise my daughter in.
“There is a deep sickness in this country … shown in the sheer amount of people who showed up for this man who threatens our democracy,” she continued.

“May Trump supporters and Trump voters and Trump himself never know peace,” the young starlet concluded.
Zegler, who wrote that she feared for “her daughter,” is not married and has no children.
Last year, Disney decided to postpone the release of the live-action “Snow White” — which has a budget of $209 million — after fans mocked the film’s depiction of the seven dwarves.
The woke production had replaced the traditionally fraternally similar seven dwarves with an inclusive cast that was diverse in both race and size.
Producers sent the project back to the drawing board, where they substituted CGI dwarves for the original miscast actors.
Zegler made headlines earlier this year when she revealed her illiterate interpretation of the fairy tale first written by the Brothers Grimm in the 19th century.
“I just mean that it’s no longer 1937,” Zegler said in a resurfaced 2022 interview at the Disney D23 Expo. “She’s not going to be saved by the prince, and she’s not going to be dreaming about true love.”
She is also quoted as saying original parts of the film were “weird” and that the prince in the story “literally stalks” Snow White.

Zegler received massive blowback for the woke commentary on the classic narrative at the time.
She also stirred controversy in August, when she posted “free Palestine” on X after the first “Snow White” trailer was released online.
Zegler recently celebrated opening night on Broadway as Juliet in Shakespeare’s “Romeo and Juliet.”
“Snow White” is set to hit theaters in 2025 after three years of production. The film was written by “Barbie” director Greta Gerwig and is directed by Marc Webb.
