The live-action remake of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs will be released on Friday, March 22, 2024 and star Rachel Zegler as Snow White and Gal Gadot as the Evil Queen. Logo:
I wonder if people will cry and pretend not to be racist in that the actress selected for snow white is half Colombian. Then explain that the fake tale of where she was sleeping in the forest in that there is no way she could have been spanish.
and don't forget the best one...Song of the South.I'm old enough to remember Snow White in its original animated form. Also Pinocchio, Dumbo, Cinderella and the like. Disney owned animation back then. Except for the howls of the woke crowd, the originals are probably better than anything they could make today.

yea, I don't understand remaking the animation version... you either adapt it from the animation, or update the animation...
but I have no problem with who they cast, its a fictitious and fantasy world... they don't need to be stuck casting based on the animation...
never understood why people care who is casted, in anything, as long as they explain what they need to and ignore what they don't...
you hear it in any show/movie based on a book... what they casted this person, they don't look like how they are supposed to in the book.... do I care whether a redhead plays a role that a brunette is supposed to??
BTW, those are the stand-ins, not the actual actors.

Point for: If you wanted to watch Disney's Snow White, watch the original. Something like this is made different to give people a reason to watch it.
Point against: That said, I'm not a fan of Disney milking this cow over and over.
you're saying that booking a popular, pretty woman as the big bad in a movie is a bad move?I'm just going to echo what @Edonidd said and that if you cast Gal Gadot as the villain then you've already messed up. Thats like casting the Rock as Lex Luthor. Not only does Gal Gadot have a large fanbase as a popular icon but she is more attractive than 99.99% of people. She is probably one of the best strong female leads you could cast right now.
If you want to make this movie then fine but I don't understand why you'd attach the Snow White name to this outside of just trying to make money. I realize making movies like Encanto and Moana is hard but they'll live on forever and Disney will be making money on them forever as pillars of their Disney+ and in their theme park. These live-action movies will sit in the back with the straight to video Disney crap that I grew up with.
Isnt the point of Snow White that she is treated unfairly? If you ask the mirror who the fairest of them all is, shouldn't the villain...not be fair?you're saying that booking a popular, pretty woman as the big bad in a movie is a bad move?
why wouldn't you want to book The Rock as Lex Luthor?
No...just that Snow White needs to be more fair.Isnt the point of Snow White that she is treated unfairly? If you ask the mirror who the fairest of them all is, shouldn't the villain...not be fair?
Although maybe the whole point is to have them make up at the end and realize that there is no villain. Thats been the norm for Disney since Moana. (or was it Brave that started the trend?)

Other than Wonder Woman (at times), I haven't really been impressed by Gal Gadot.
She's really pretty, but can't really act. We'll see if she can really pull off a villain (if she's actually a villain in this film, which is not a sure thing).
