Disney reportedly hired more security guards for “Snow White” star Gal Gadot after she received death threats over her pro-Israeli stance amid the Israel-Hamas war.

On Tuesday, Variety reported that the actress received an influx of hate once her co-star Rachel Zegler publicly voiced her support for Palestine while promoting the live-action musical last year.

“[Zegler] didn’t understand the repercussions of her actions as far as what that meant for the film, for Gal, for anyone,” an insider told the outlet.

In August 2024, Zegler, 23, took to X to thank fans for helping the first “Snow White” promo reach 120 million views within 24 hours.

She signed off her post, writing, “and always remember, free palestine.”

The “West Side Story” star’s post reached 8.9 views and while some critics slammed the actress for promoting the Disney film alongside her political beliefs, others allegedly spoke out against Gadot, 39.

In October 2023, the Israeli actress voiced her support for her home country after Hamas launched a deadly attack at the Nova Music Festival.

“I stand with Israel you should too,” the “Red Notice” star wrote on Instagram at the time. “The world cannot sit on the fence when these horrific acts of terror are happening!”

Reps for Gadot weren’t immediately available to Page Six for comment.

Earlier this month, Gadot defended her decision to stand with Israel after protestors interrupted her Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony.

“There is a challenge for people to speak on social media because there is so much hate going on and so many bots and so many angry people that are looking for a cause,” she told Variety.

“After October 7th, [2023], I don’t talk politics — because who cares about the celebrity talking about politics? I’m an artist. I want to entertain people. I want to bring hope and be a beacon of light whenever I say anything about the world.

“But on October 7th, when people were abducted from their homes, from their beds, men, women, children, elderly, Holocaust survivors, were going through the horrors of what happened that day, I could not be silent.”

Gadot admitted she was “shocked by the amount of hate” she received and “by the amount of how much people think they know when they actually have no idea.”

The “Wonder Woman” star received more backlash at her Walk of Fame ceremony on March 18.

Pro-Palestinian demonstrators arrived outside the event with signs that read “No Other Land Won Oscar” and “Heros [sic] Fight Like Palestinians.”
