Disney hires more security for Gal Gadot over safety threats
The star has received threats.
Gal Gadot will reportedly have a beefed-up security team provided by Disney after she received death threats over her pro-Israel stance amid the Israel-Hamas war.
The Israeli actress, 39, stars as the Evil Queen in the upcoming Disney movie Snow White and has faced calls for a boycott from pro-Palestinian activists who have criticised her casting.
The Wonder Woman star has publicly advocated for Israel over the years, while co-star Rachel Zegler has made her support for Palestine clear.
While directly promoting the film as she thanked fans for their ‘love’ in response to the trailer in the summer, before adding on X: ‘And always remember, free Palestine.’
This tweet from Zegler allegedly led to a spike in hate towards Gadot.
It has now been reported that Gadot is facing death threats from fans because of her beliefs, and reports have suggested Disney has upped her security after concerns for the star.
