Disneys live-action Snow White remake has been a lightning rod for hatred.
Its a simple truth: pleasing everyone is virtually impossible.
Why So Much Controversy Around Rachel Zegler’s Snow White?
The discourse began when Rachel Zegler was cast as the title character.
Then, the set photos leaked.
The backlash was as immediate as it was intense.
Disney clearly felt like it was well within its rights to make these changes.
But the chatter aroundSnow Whitedidnt stop there.
A dramatically updated take, to be sure.
The changes to Snow White’s story were seemingly made to better reflect modern values.
Theres a big focus on her love story with a guy who literally stalks her.
So we didnt do that this time.
Still, the cries of displeasure from audiences were loud and frequent.
“Their thoughts are just so radical now.
… Theres no respect for what Disney did and what my dad did.
I think Walt and he would be turning in their graves.”

Still, the dislikes persist.
Snow White and the Seven Dwarveshits theaters everywhere on March 21, 2025.
