Marvel should learn from the fiasco she created from her Snow White debacle and just forget about her or else she’ll just create headaches 🤪 for them as well

Rachel would be excellent as the dark queens, vixens, vampiresses, evil step-mothers, female antagonists, etc. She has created a dark persona. She should type-cast herself that way.

She can ace any role she plays.

She can play Lady Death. As she is Disney's Grim Reaper for costing them billions of dollars. And her joining the MCU will finally allow the madness of the current MCU to finally drag it down to its grave.
