Gal Gadot will play the Evil Queen in Disney’s upcoming live-action remake of #SnowWhite. bit.ly/3wfPrOf Image
Gadot will star opposite #WestSideStory star @rachelzegler, who was cast as the classic princess earlier this year. bit.ly/3wfPrOf ImageImage
Since Gadot is primarily known for her heroic work in DC’s #WonderWoman franchise, her turn as the Evil Queen will give the actor a chance to show a more wicked side to her oeuvre. bit.ly/3wfPrOf Image
In the timeless fairytale, the Evil Queen attempts to trick Snow White into eating a poisoned apple after becoming jealous of her beauty. The Disney villain also speaks the famous line: “Mirror, mirror on the wall, who is the fairest of them all?” bit.ly/3wfPrOf Image
Marc Webb, who is best known for helming the #TheAmazingSpiderMan films starring Andrew Garfield and #500DaysOfSummer, is set to direct the adaptation. bit.ly/3wfPrOf

Jennifer Hudson is pitching a new daytime talk show to be produced by the team from “The Ellen DeGeneres Show.” bit.ly/3wfXwlY
Although not technically an “Ellen” replacement — her show wouldn’t be a continuation of the “Ellen” deals and is being shopped as a new series — it would be positioned as Warner Bros. TV’s new flagship daytime talk show now that “Ellen” is ending its run. bit.ly/3wfXwlY
“Ellen” executive producers Andy Lassner and Mary Connelly also served as show runners on Hudson’s test show, which was recently shot on the “Ellen” stage and is now being used as part of the pitch to station groups. bit.ly/3wfXwlY

.@Isabella_Gomez, who returns to screens today with @hbomax’s #HeadOfTheClass, spoke to Variety about her latest project, what she learned from #OneDayAtATime star @TheRitaMoreno and why #HannahMontana is her dream reboot project. bit.ly/3bGbNyC
“I didn’t feel like, ‘Oh, I’m doing another reboot’” @Isabella_Gomez says of #HeadOfTheClass. “Right now, we need so much joy and so much laughter after the couple of years we’ve had as humans that I was really excited to sign on board.” bit.ly/3bGbNyC
On #ODAAT, Gomez starred as a high school student. As Alicia Gomez on #HeadOfTheClass, she stands on the other side of the lectern: “I was like, ‘Really, they want me to play the teacher?’ … It was also just fun in that I have a baby face.” bit.ly/3bGbNyC

Dwayne @TheRock Johnson is pledging to stop using real firearms on all projects produced by his company, @SevenBucksProd: “We're going to switch over to rubber guns, and we're going to take care of it in post... We won't worry about what it costs.” bit.ly/3wdjEgC Image
Johnson's pledge comes after the tragic death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins: "We lost a life. My heart goes out to her family and everybody on set." bit.ly/3wdjEgC Image
Johnson says he will only use rubber guns on his sets, and will enforce that rule with any studio he is working with: “Any movie we do that Seven Bucks does with any studio, the rule is we're not going to use real guns.” bit.ly/3wdjEgC
