Nicole Kidman turned the spotlight on Rachel Zegler as she stepped into one of musical theater’s most legendary roles.
The former Disney star stunned audiences with a monumental performance as Argentina’s iconic first lady Eva Peron in Evita.
Directed by Jamie Lloyd, the show began its West End performances on June 14, 2025 at The London Palladium with a three-month run.
Since the show’s debut, several celebrities have praised the production—most recently the Babygirl star herself.
In a recent Instagram Story Kidman congratulated both the director and the 24-year-old actress applauding them for a job well done and a powerful performance.
“Brilliant night at the theater in London. Congratulations, Jamie Lloyd, Rachel Zegler and the whole cast of Evita,” she wrote.

“Love you so so so much, mama,” she said, tagging the actress.
The duo collaborated as voice actors in the Netflix animated musical Spellbound, portraying a mother-daughter duo, Princess Ellian and Queen Ellsmere from the kingdom of Lumbria.
In the 2024 movie, the teen princess faced an unexpected fate after she discovered that her parents, the queen and her husband King Solon, voiced by Javier Bardem, had been turned into gigantic monsters on her 15th birthday.
With that, she embarked on an exciting quest into the Dark Forest of Eternal Darkness to break the curse.
Beyond Spellbound Zegler is also known for playing the title role in Disney’s controversial live-action Snow White, along with Gal Gadot as the Evil Queen.
It is worth recalling that the remake sparked a wave of negative reactions from the audience due to its casting choices and creative changes.
