'West Side Story' Star Rachel Zegler's Tweets About the Trailer Premiering Will Make You Emotional!
Rachel Zegler has been waiting for this moment for a long time and it has finally arrived!
The 19-year-old newcomer is playing the lead role of Maria in Steven Spielberg‘s remake of West Side Story and the first trailer is debuting tonight during the Oscars.
Rachel landed the role in January 2019 and the movie was filmed in the summer of that year. The film was supposed to be released in theaters in December 2020, but it was delayed because of the pandemic and will now hit theaters on December 10, 2021.
While we’ve seen some official photos from the film, the trailer will mark the first time we’re seeing any footage of the cast in action. Rachel is so excited for the world to see the trailer and her tweets about it will definitely make you emotional.
“currently sobbing in bed because life is about to get Real tomorrow. thank you for sharing these past few years of in-between with me,” Rachel wrote on Saturday night.
