Rachel Zegler is booked and busy. The Romeo + Juliet star visited Late Night with Seth Meyers on Thursday to discuss her many current and upcoming projects, which include the animated musical Spellbound, the disaster comedy Y2K, and more. West Side Story co-star Rita Moreno was also on the show last evening and the two performers were able to reunite backstage.
“I haven’t seen her since The Oscars in 2022 and she wrote this beautiful piece for me for Time100 Next and I haven’t gotten to thank her in person for it,” Zegler explained. The performer was included on the prestigious list in 2023.
During the interview, Zegler also revealed how playing Maria in West Side Story prepared her for playing Juliet on Broadway, what it was like meeting Spellbound co-stars Nicole Kidman and Javier Bardem, and being asked by Alan Menken to record scratch vocals for Spellbound. Watch the interview now!
