I'm highly offended because there is simply no reason other than jealousy for you all to hate on Latinas for everything they do just like when Camila Cabello got hated on big time for doing Cinderella just because she's a beautiful Latina and how much hate Selena Gomez gets is ridiculous I don't care if Snow White is German everyone should embrace people of color and stop hating on Latinas, at this point I feel like all Latinas should be kept somewhere on a safe beautiful island away from haters and sadly the haters are half the world.

No one is hating on the movie "just" for that reason. But let's talk about that while we're at it. Quite simply, it's not in keeping with the original story and there was no reason to change it. There is nothing wrong with criticizing that decision.
But even so, at this point, Rachel Zegler's race is the least of Disney's problems with the live-action Snow White. From her own words, they've completely remade the substance of the story. It's no longer a fairy tale, but a story of female empowerment. Gal Gadot, with great enthusiasm and excitement, said in an interview that Snow White "is not going to be saved by the prince", as if everyone else is as enthusiastic and excited as Disney is paying her to be. In the same interview, Zegler says it's about Snow White "becoming the leader she knows she can be". That is not a Snow White story or a fairy tale.
On that same note, Rachel Zegler absolutely and openly hates the 1937 original film and is incredibly melodramatic and condescending about it. That right there is turning a ton of people off. That and her "I deserve to be paid for every hour that it streams" childish self-entitlement is also not doing the film any favors.
There's a much bigger picture here. No one is hating on Latinas.

It’s not logical to hate someone for their skin color. Seems ignorant
its called Snow White for a reason. It literally says “skin as light as snow.” It isn’t called snow brown by any means and no offense by that.
She is also entitled. She said she never was a fan of Snow White. This role should have went to a white woman not a brown woman. Make your own Disney movies. Don’t try to steal ours.
Everyone’s hating on her bcs she’s an entitled brat. She trash talks the original Snow White film, appears to be condescending in interviews, and talks down on her male co-star.

I think she's getting hate because she basically insulting fans and self sabotaging. Plus all the woke nonsense of the film creates a backlash. I think she let her fame go to her head.
Hollywood needs to stop remaking the same movies over and over again, and trying to rewrite them with an updated woke feminist agenda or set in modern times as it's been done to death especially Cinderella. There must be something like 30 Cinderella movies in the last 20 years. Even the Disney live action remakes like beauty & the beast and Cinderella the only bits I actually watched and rewatched was the dress scenes and dancing scenes.
Snow White is the same. There are 50 movies already made and some of them have a modern spin and to be fair it's been 10 years since mirror mirror and snow white and the huntsman. My favourite snowhite movie was Snow White: The Fairest of Them All from 2001 with Asian American actress Kristen kruek.
It's not about Her being a Latina, and it's not really about Her for the most part. The problem is that we are bombarded with "redesigned" version of classic stories, and the redesign goes against the original idea. A Latina simply cannot play a canonical Snow White. It's not Her fault, but when criticism hits a certain phenomenon in our reality, in this example in cinematography, those who exemplify the problem will sometimes be hit as well, even it's not really their fault.
She's not getting hate because she's Latina she's getting hate because she's a bad Feminist
