Snow White: the new live action at the cinema in March 2024
Next March we will discover the new live action film Snow White, adapted from the classic Disney cartoon. Before that, there had been other adaptations of the famous tale, with Kristen Stewart or even Lily Collins as the heroine. This time, it’s Rachel Zegler who has been cast as the young lady and Gal Gadot will be camping for her her wicked stepmother. This project is part of a long list of classic cartoons that Disney adapts into live-action films.
Gal Gadot: Your next film could be a turning point in your career
And as with all recent remakes, many viewers do not hesitate to express their disappointment with Disney’s choices. The last one, The little Mermaid, led to controversy after African-American actress Halle Bailey was cast as Ariel. This dissatisfaction did not prevent the feature film from knowing a big hit at the box office with nearly $570 million in worldwide revenue.
For Snow White, was the choice of Rachel Zegler who displeased due to her nationality of Colombian origin and the first plot elements that she had revealed at the time of filming. Indeed, she had determined that the heroine would not “dream of great love”, but rather she would become a “leader”.
The son of the director of the cartoon takes it out on Disney
This time it is the son of the director of the cartoon Snow White released in 1937 who attacks Disney. Indeed, in an interview with Telegramsaid David Hand Jr. (via First):
Their thoughts are so radical now. The stories change, the reasoning of the characters changes. They invent new woke things and I disagree. Frankly, I find what they have done with these classics a bit offensive… There is no respect for what Disney and my father have achieved. They have to turn over in their graves.
He also said it’s a “shame” that Disney insists on remaking its classics for today.
