After the disastrous Snow White adaptation, which ignited a whirlwind of controversy and rumors, Rachel Zegler is making a surprising return to the screen in She Gets It From Me, a dramatic comedy. The actress, whose name has been all over headlines for months, now lands a complex new role, signaling a potential career pivot.
According to Variety, Zegler plays the daughter of a former punk rocker, whose engagement has completely unraveled. As she embarks on a chaotic search to find her troubled mother, who is battling addiction, Zegler’s character uncovers a web of family drama that will culminate in a heart-wrenching reunion.
The film’s foundation is rooted in a real story, with a bold premise:
"YouTube is filled with heartwarming family reunions, but no one films the aftermath." A glimpse of the emotional and raw exploration of relationships that we don't often see on screen.
While Zegler had already been the subject of much debate for her outspoken nature prior to Snow White, her time on set only fueled the fire. A public rift with another cast member over political disagreements became one of the many stories feeding the gossip mill.
As Zegler moves on from the scandal, She Gets It From Me promises a powerful new chapter in her career. Will this film be the redemption she’s searching for, or yet another layer of controversy, time will show.
