Rachel Zegler Says Ariana Grande 'Reached Out to Me' to Offer Support Ahead of Snow White's Release: 'She Is So Deeply Kind'

Rachel Zegler said in a new interview that 'Wicked' star Ariana Grande 'reached out to me' said she was here if Zegler needed anything as the 'Snow White' actress prepares for her big screen adaptation to hit theaters on Friday, March 21.

Zegler, 23, told Allure magazine in a cover story published online Tuesday, March 18 that Grande, 31, is among those who have lent their support to her in recent weeks. In addition to Grande, whose big screen role as Glinda in Wicked put her in the spotlight for the last several months, Zegler also said that The Good Place star Jameela Jamil was "like a big sister to me" while she discussed her experiences working in Hollywood and racist fan backlash that erupted after Disney cast a Latina woman to portray the fairy tale's title character. Zegler, who shares the screen with Gal Gadot in Disney's live-action adaptation of its animated 1937 classic, also spoke against the idea that women in Hollywood and entertainment should feel competitive against each other.
