Disney revealed the first image of snow-white, the live action remake of the 1937 animated classic Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. The photo shows the protagonist princess (played by Rachel Zegler) surrounded by her faithful adventure companions, the Seven Dwarfs. The film, initially scheduled for a theatrical release on March 22, 2024, has suffered a postponement to March 21, 2025 due to the strike of the actors of the Screen Actors Guild, the American union that has been protesting against the Hollywood Studios for over 100 days. The cast of the film directed by Marc Webb and screenplay by Greta Gerwig ed Erin Cressida Wilson includes not only Zegler, the first Latina actress in the role of Snow White, but also Gal Gadot as the Queen Grimhilde, Ansu Kabia in the role of Soccer player And Andrew Burnap in the guise of a new character, Jonathan. More than 85 years after the release of the animated feature film, Disney has in fact revisited the characters and the story of the most beautiful princess in the kingdom, from the figures of the Seven Dwarfs to the plot centered not on the romantic relationship with Prince Charming, but about Snow White’s evolution into a resolute woman that her father always encouraged her to be. Due to the deviation from the original version, the choices sparked an uproar on social media.
