Rachel Anne Zegler (/ˈzɛɡlər/ ZEG-lər; born May 3, 2001) is an American actress and singer. Zegler gained wide recognition for her performance as María in Steven Spielberg's film adaptation West Side Story (2021), winning the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress in a Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy.

She has since portrayed Anthea in the superhero action film Shazam! Fury of the Gods (2023), Lucy Gray Baird in the teen dystopian drama The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes (2023), and the titular character in the musical fantasy Snow White (2025). The lattermost generated significant controversy and was considered to be a box-office bomb. Zegler made her Broadway debut playing Juliet in Romeo and Juliet (2024) and her West End debut as the titular character in the musical Evita (2025), for which she was nominated for the Laurence Olivier Award for Best Actress in a Musical.
