Disney’s highly anticipated live-action remake of Snow White is set to hit theaters today, but it hasn’t been the smoothest journey to the big screen. While the film promises a fresh take on the classic fairytale, early projections suggest a modest opening weekend, sparking conversations about its potential success.
Starring Rachel Zegler as Snow White and Gal Gadot as the Evil Queen, the film has already stirred up plenty of buzz—both good and bad. The casting of Zegler, a Latina actress, has been a topic of heated debate, as has Disney’s decision to replace the seven dwarfs with CGI characters instead of hiring actors with dwarfism. Add to that Zegler’s past comments about the original 1937 film, and you’ve got a production surrounded by controversy.
Despite the drama, Disney is pushing forward with confidence, promoting the film as a modern reimagining with a stronger, more independent Snow White. With lavish costumes, stunning visuals, and a villainous turn from Gal Gadot, the movie could still find its fairytale ending.
Will Snow White charm audiences or struggle to cast its magic spell? Will you be watching it?
