But as I signed off with a heartfelt “and always remember, free palestine,” it seems there was some stir about that message.

Initially shared widely, the last update stirred conversations as Variety disclosed Disney insiders being taken aback by Zegler’s decision to express political views. The report indicates that Disney promptly contacted her and Platt, the film producer, traveled to New York for a face-to-face meeting, yet Zegler remained firm in keeping her post up without retracting it.
