Gal Gadot clarified her remarks about how celebrities being pressured to speak against Israel played a role in “Snow White” flopping at the box office.
“I was honored to join an extraordinary interview with inspiring interviewers, whose questions go straight to the heart,” the Israeli actress shared via her Instagram Stories Sunday.
“Sometimes we respond to questions from an emotional place. When the film came out, I felt that those who are against Israel criticized me in a very personal, almost visceral way,” she added.
“They saw me, first and foremost, as an Israeli, not as an actress. That’s the perspective I spoke from when I answered the question.”
Gadot, 40, wrote that the live-action Disney remake didn’t “fail solely because of external pressures.”
“There are many factors that determine why a film succeeds or fails, and success is never guaranteed!” she concluded.
During a recent appearance on Israeli TV show “The A Talks,” the “Wonder Woman” actress revealed why she believed “Snow White” was considered a “major flop.
