Just after the box-office success of Aladdin and the popularity of its new song "Speechless", Disney is moving forward with a live-action adaptation of the animated movie that started it all, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.
Right now Marc Webb (The Amazing Spider-Man films) is in talks to direct the movie. Pasek and Paul, who wrote "Speechless" with Alan Menken in Aladdin will be writing new songs for the film, which will also feature the classic songs that were written for the original. The film will also feature a script Erin Cressida Wilson (The Girl on the Train) with Marc Platt as producer.

I would like to see Michelle Dockery, Olivia Colman, and Gal Gadot play the Evil Queen. I'm thinking that Gadot might like to portray someone bad after playing a hero for a while. It would be nice to see an unknown or an up-and-coming actress play Snow White. Hardly anyone had even heard of Mena Massoud before he was cast as Aladdin.
I think this version should feature elements from other adaptations. A lot of people in today's world, especially Kristen Bell, are criticizing Snow White for accepting an apple from a complete stranger. Both Snow White & the Huntsman and an episode of the HBO series, Happily Ever After: Fairy Tales for Every Child , featured the Queen character disguising herself as someone Snow White knew very well and then tricked her into eating the apple. Or they could do what Snow White did on an episode of Once Upon a Time. She voluntarily ate the apple in order to save the James/the Prince from Regina/the Evil Queen, who was just dressed as herself when she offered it to her. Speaking of which, that series updated the character very well. Ginnifer Goodwin portrayed her as someone who wasn't really a damsel-in-distress and wasn't afraid of taking part in the action.
The very first version of 'Disney on Ice: Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs' had a new scene where Snow White is very young and accidentally meets Doc. This might also stop the complaints for audiences who say it's not right for a teenage girl to live with seven men because this way she at least knows one of them and is not worried about them doing something bad to her. Maybe this movie should include that.

One of the most positive things about Disney's version of Snow White is how unique each of the Dwarfs were. In so many other adaptations, like Mirror Mirror and Snow White and the Huntsman, I can only remember two of them at most. So, it will be very nice to see Disney stay faithful to the personalities of the Dwarfs. I'd be surprised if they decided not to. Despite Maleficent's flaws I really like how they updated Aurora. Elle Fanning gave her some depth and made her very likable. Snow White is a very optimistic character, but I hope they give her more layers.

I don't know if this source is legit or not, but rumor has it that the dwarfs will also not be "little people". Small actors won't be playing them and they will instead be rendered in CGI. Also, the only songs from the original to be featured in the new version will be "Whistle While You Work" and "Heigh Ho (It's Off to Work We Go)" and are working on creating lots of new songs. They are apparently cutting "Someday My Prince Will Come" because it's apparently too much of an old school notion.

The latest scoop about the movie according to an exclusive Patreon podcast from TheDisInsider:
They are hoping to start filming in September. Also, Lana Condor (X-Men: Apocalypse, To All the Boys I've Loved Before) is being eyed to play Snow White. She would be the second actress with Asian heritage after Kristin Kreuk (Snow White: The Fairest of Them All), who is of Chinese descent, to play the character.

Last time I've checked she was called "Snow White", not "Cacao Brown".
If those virtue signaling idiots want to do something really good for, so called, "oppressed minorities", they can make some work based on legends of those, so called, "oppressed minorities" and fill them with as many "minorities" as their liberal souls desire, instead hijacking European myths.
But that won't be "in your face" enough, I guess and, in their broken minds, "ebil racists" won't be triggered, if they made something original.

- crippled quadriplegic dorf (who somehow kills the main bad guy);
- non-binary angry black dorf (who constantly shouts at everyone about his SUFFERING, but everyone treat it as a cute quirk, instead of dragging him to the psychologist);
- emo asian FAT dorf (who is somehow super athletic);
- asexual smoothie drinking vaping dorf (wiseass);
- evil (of course) white dorf (who betrays everyone and then horrible mutilated and killed to show those pesky white people, what happens when they go against DA CULT OF WOKE LOVE AND ACCEPTANCE!!);

Her wish will mostly likely be like Jasmine's in the live-action Aladdin. Jasmine wanted to be Sultana and got her wish and married the boy as a bonus, so Snow White will probably want to be a strong-willed queen. I clearly saw this coming when Greta Gerwig signed on the rewrite the script. In her version of Little Women, Jo March didn't end up a with a guy because she didn't need one. The songwriters who wrote "Speechless" in the 2019 Aladdin are also creating new songs for this film, so Snow White is most likely going to get a power anthem as well.

Rachel Zegler further elaborated what the creative team behind the movie have planned for Snow White.
There's not much I can say about it besides the fact that Snow White has constantly been criticized — even though she's the original Disney princess and we love her so much — but criticized for existing solely for a prince, existing solely to be rescued. And I think that our director, Marc Webb, and everyone who's working on this film has really taken her narrative and turned it into something that's a lot stronger. And I'm very, very excited to be able to bring that to life.

I don't really read the Los Angeles Times at all, but they made a very good point earlier this year about how the character and story are timeless after feminist critics criticized the refurbished Disneyland ride for including what they thought was a "non-consensual kiss". The writer also said that he actually doesn't see Snow White as someone who needed marriage, unlike Cinderella or Aurora.

We can exclusively reveal that Burnap will play a new role named Jonathan. He is described as a man with plenty of swagger and a twinkle in his eye, Jonathan has turned to Robin Hood-like thievery to provide for himself and his friends. Entranced by Snow White’s kindness and courage, he soon finds himself falling in love and following her into battle.

Actor Peter Dinklage said that the movie is not being progressive enough by having Dwarfs being played by people of short stature.
https://www.thewrap.com/peter-dinklage-snow-white-and-the-seven-dwarfs/
Disney responded by saying that they were always planning on taking a different approach with these characters and that they would not be Dwarfs.
“To avoid reinforcing stereotypes from the original animated film, we are taking a different approach with these seven characters and have been consulting with members of the dwarfism community. We look forward to sharing more as the film heads into production after a lengthy development period,” Disney said in a statement shared with TheWrap.
Instead of dwarfs, Disney will fill the void with a group of what they describe as “magical creatures,” according to casting sheets that TheWrap has seen. (They are currently looking for voice actors to give these creatures personality.) It’s unclear if they will inhabit the same roles as the dwarfs – will they be mining for jewels? Will they have names like Sleepy, Grumpy, and Bashful? – but these magical creatures will be the substitutes for the original seven dwarfs.

Did they not fire the ones that would be playing the seven dwarves over this? Dinklage is a little bitch, it's easy to complain when HE has no problem finding roles in movie, but he just cost 7 people their jobs.
And yeah, if I was a dwarf I wouldn't care about some movie. Snow White existed since forever, it making a sorta-kinda in-name-only comeback wouldn't change matters.

02-01-2022, 08:10 PM
I mean, in my opinion he ought'a be happy that any of "his people" even get an acting job. Those people wait their whole lives hoping for a Snow White or Wizard of Oz remake and he tries to get it shut down because the concept isn't "progressive" enough? Gimme a f*cking break.
I'd heard that Dinklage was "generally a nice guy, but really high on his own sh*t ever since Game of Thrones made him a millionaire." This tracks with that.
He also described the story as "some dwarves living together in a cave," when last I recall they just worked there and lived in a nice little (albeit messy) house in the woods nearby. So I kinda think he's just generally an idiot if he doesn't even remember how the story goes on the f*cking thing he's criticizing. Just shooting his mouth off because he knows people will listen.
But yeah, he's the most famous one of the moment so naturally his words carry a lot of weight. But they shouldn't. I still know quite a few personally who prefer the term "midget" over "little person"; they are not a hive mind. And like anyone else, they don't like being condescended to, not even by one of their own

But I agree, that people in charge shouldn't consider random opinions as a gospel.
His own community is saying he doesn't speak for them, so in this context, yeah, he's just some guy. He's the one guy complaining about **** that gets those beneath him fired while he soaks in the million dollar hot tub.

Yeah, like I was saying it's easy for HIM to talk that kinda sh*t when he never has to work again in his life but most of his peers aren't so lucky and his comments are inconsiderate towards them.
I mean, let's be honest, he's a very good actor but he also got extremely lucky with GoT. He has a deep voice with a British-y accent and that makes him perfect for that kind of Medieval Fantasy stuff. If he spoke in the higher-pitched register like a lot of his peers do, then he simply wouldn't have gotten the job. God did him a favor and gave him the voice of a "normal" person and so he's eligible for a wider range of roles, including voice-overs.
Good for him. But as others have said, he abuses that gift by deigning to speak for all the "little people" when in fact he's screwing up their prospects to ever get the same break he did. Which simply isn't fair.

One reason why this film is so work is because Disney hired Greta Gerwig to work on the script. Her version of Little Women was so woke compared to past versions. In her film, Jo March, the protagonist, doesn’t end up with a man. She tells a publisher that her book will say that she ends up with the man if she gets to keep the residuals.

The only problem? The photos aren’t legit.
When asked by The Daily Beast for comment on the Daily Mail’s article, which touts photos of what it claims is Snow White’s cast, a Disney spokesperson said, “The photos are fake and not from our production. We are currently trying to have the Daily Mail issue a correction.”

I just saw this post. And yeah almost a 1:1 shot would be pretty awesome. Although I still love the irony of "live action" Lion King and so on - it's still a cartoon and not live action. Just CGi to appear as real as possible.

So they purposely made black men and women pose for a photo just to make the conservatives mad, and then they’ll reveal that they’ve always intended the dwarves to be all white male dudes like in the original story? Yeeeah, I’m not buying that. Because what if the wokies do want those kind of “dwarves”? You think Disney would dare anger them by pulling such a stunt?
Come on, y’all…you should’ve learned by now, especially after that awful live-action Peter Pan remake. Maybe they’ll use CGI to make the current PC actors into smaller versions of themselves, hence “dwarves”, which is why Disney can get away with saying “well those aren’t the real dwarves”. Also, downsizing people digitally is the politically correct way of portraying dwarves in a movie.

Well, here's some real news. Earlier this month, Gal Gadot had to say about playing the Evil Queen.
"I don't have a preferred type of character. I think it was so much fun to play the Evil Queen," Gadot revealed. "There was something so delicious with this part because it's a fairy tale. It's the first Disney villain. And because it's a musical, I could stretch my performance and make it so much more dramatic and so much more animated, that it was just simply delightful. I enjoyed it, and I changed my voice and I did all these different things. And it was just super fun, and I can't wait to watch it. I can't wait to see how you know how it all turns out."

She has a point, however, you can update story without making damsel-in-distress a "girlboss-bitch" type.
There is no shame in needing help of other people and it doesn't make your character weaker, if done right.

Little Mermaid would have had to be an absolute disaster to stop this from continuing.
Given how big corpos treat their products, its always should be a mega hit or its considered a flop. What is more important to consider that it might not be a flop in financial sense either, but in terms of reputation.
Disney had build themselves in last decades as nigh infallible colossus and now pretty much all its arms are underperforming whether critically or financially - Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Pixar, MCU and, now, remakes of their classics.
Iger already said that they plan to rethink their approach, but whether they will do it or not is a good question. Disney is falling in terms of reputation and this is might be even a bigger hit, than bleeding gold out of their coffers. Besides, one usually follows the other.
So basically this is "Snow Brown" and not "Snow White"?

They need some sort of PR team or rule for these actors where either they STFU or they are mandated to be openly excited about the project, and if it's based on a pre-existing project, show just as much love and respect towards it.
This dumb bitch should have been more 'omg i grew up with Snow White, this role is a dream come true to me' and a whole lot less of 'Snow White is stupid, and y'all stupid for likin it, Imma fix this story, MY WAY and if you don't like it you're (insert buzzword here).'
Like even if she's a **** in real life, it's called acting, and a big part of acting is selling yourself to the audience on and off the screen. For all we know Keanu might be a dick off screen (I hope not though) but if he is, he does an amazing job selling his image as an all-around likeable guy.
I remember during phase 1 or maybe 2 of the Avengers run, every actor involved had to be 100% on their best behavior and keep any irl drama to a minimum while under contract. Even though, yeah, we know they are actors and not the characters, the studio really wanted the audience to fall for Chris Evans and the rest just as much as if he WAS Captain America, and not tarnish the role the way Kang McDumbass did. I forgot if that was a Marvel Studios contact thing pre-Disney or if the Disney buyout changed that rule, or if it just went to hell when Brie Larson started shooting off her mouth and no one could tell her to shut up because 'misogyny'.

It would seem that a lot of folks within today's modern audiences stopped caring about old stories, and, that's why they're re-telling them in shi**y ways.
The fact is, the older movies, comic books, and the guys that have passed on, did a better job at actually captivating the fan interest than much of today's 'corrected' entertainment media has managed to do so far.

Stan Lee.
Much as I like Stan Lee and his output, he was like our local Eastman, in that he approved everything with a Marvel branding on it, as long as it could make money. It doesn't make him a bad person, I just don't think he'd took seriously any deviation from his concepts as long as they were profitable and fun enough.

Fake. Though I'm really wondering what Disney's play with this movie will be. They see the almost universal backlash. We were already supposed to get the trailer by now.
Do they bury it? Massive reshoots? Just soldier on with it as is and take another wallop? Probably they have to have the actors strike over to implement any decisions.

The film has been delayed to March 21, 2025 due to the SAG-AFTRA strike and needs to go through reshoots. However, a first look was released. It looks like the Dwarfs are in it after all.

In the first Maleficent film, the pixies played by Imelda Staunton, Juno Temple, and Lesley Manville were CGI characters except for the scenes when they disguised themselves as humans while they were raising Aurora in the forest. However, they were CGI the entire time in the 2019 sequel So, maybe Disney thought if moviegoers wouldn't be bothered by that, then the same thing could happen here. Back in 2022, Martin Klebba was already announced to play Grumpy. So, if wonder if they will get well-known names to voice the other six Dwarfs or if they will get actors of similar height like Klebba to voice them. Also, if the movie is going through reshoots maybe they will make some changes to what they originally shot and make the story a little more traditional.

It's also similar to what the 2014 TMNT film was originally going to have. Originally the Turtles were going to be aliens, but they changed that following the backlash. Then when William Fichtner had been cast as Shredder and that received criticism, they reworked his character to be a man working for Shredder, and the new Shredder was played by an Asian man. When it comes to this movie people obviously didn't like what they saw from the reshoots before the SAG-AFTRA strike happened and now Disney is backtracking and doing something to what most people are used to.
Andrew NDB
10-27-2023, 07:31 PM
I don't think they actually started shooting the Turtles as aliens version, as that version of the script had Shredder as some kind of a General. I believe the reshoots centered squarely on making Eric Sachs not the Shredder, and creating an Oroku Saki character. In any case it is a little bit the same situation as Snow White, but I think the Snow White retooling and reshooting will be on a much vaster scale.

I don't know if this source is legit or not. However, with everything that has happened with this film, maybe it is. Disney apparently delayed it a year because they feared the film would end up like Tom Hooper's Cats, which was a gigantic bomb. They worry that all of the backlash that has happened will not make the film profitable, especially since they spent a budget of $330 million. Disney released that if Paramount could delay 2020's Sonic the Hedgehog to help them correct their mistakes after its first trailer, then maybe the same can be done with this film.

The cartoon is so beloved. It was the first feature-length cartoon movie. It won honorary Oscars. And all these amazing things that happened for that film are the reason that you and I get to sit here today, because it made Disney what it is.

What do you mean? This Snow White movie has had more reshoots than any Marvel movie ever. It's probably closest in comparison to something like "Rogue One," where almost the entire movie was reshot -- and this is AFTER other reshoots. It's also hilariously sad that this is happening to Snow White's director, Marc Web... after how Sony famously treated him on the Amazing Spider-Man movies. This, also, wasn't his fault.

Stop making remakes, for god's sake. Especially if it is a remake of an adaptation!?
Andrew NDB
11-16-2024, 02:28 AM
There just seems to be a troubling new way of going about remakes that doom them for the past decade or so. "That old movie is FLAWED and we can make it BETTER because we know BETTER NOW!" is the new thinking. The old thinking, was something like the DePalma Scarface. It had a reverence for the source material, the original Scarface from like the 20s. Its only reason for being was, "We love the original movie, but here is a killer new concept to do it justice in a contemporary setting." And boy did it work. Or to use an example from around the same timeframe, the Untouchables movie vs. the old TV show. Not a drastic retooling, but a faithful and loving one that connected and did gangbusters.
And the Disney live action remakes aren't inherently a bad idea. They're just a bad idea when the people making them hate the animated versions they're going off of to make into live action, or find them "problematic." Just a case of hiring the wrong people, again and again, over and over.
Then there's stuff like... what was it, the one-two punch of "We can do better than Verhoeven!" with the Robocop and Total Recall remakes in the 2010s. Good lord. Obviously those guys loved the original movies and I don't even think it was them trying to "fix" things in them... but jesus christ. What a case of taking everything that worked and just painting over it with stuff that obviously wouldn't. And taking two pieces of art that were super gorey and making both of them PG-13.

I mean on one side, no one really cared about or watched live-action Lion King. No one could get past the non-emoting animals.
On the other side, Billy insulted 'the right people'. 'Everyone' hates Christians since they don't like the gays so they're fair game. Especially since the Christians were celebrating that RvW was overturned.
I'm actually surprised she didn't get a high five and a raise from Hollywood for her comments on Trump supporters. The way they made her apologize, you'd think it was backwards and she called Kamala a stupid c*nt or something.

The last Disney live-action remake I've seen was the Jungle Book, and I barely even remember watching it. I would've seen Beauty and the Beast if they had cast a better Belle. I was thinking about seeing Aladdin but something seemed oddly pasteurized about it. I would've seen The Little Mermaid if they didn't crap all over it.

The film is right now tracking for a $63-$70 million opening. Given all of the reshoots this had, I'm sure Disney is hoping for a much a higher number.

I didn't have any problems with Emma Watson playing Belle. She looks like Belle and she and the character have similar personalities. I also thought it was good to have a huge star like her play Belle, especially after Belle had a huge decline in popularity and sales in 2013.

Back in 2021, I saw people on message boards saying that Disney had learned from casting a non-singer in Beauty and the Beast with the casting of Zegler as Snow White, but boy it has backfired big time. They should never cast an entitled and spoiled little diva with no media training no matter how good her voice is.

There should be some new clause in a contract that if you cause too drama and negative press around the movie you're starring in to the point where the movie's release will cost them money.... you can and will be replaced.
I feel bad for Gal. She didn't sign up for this Snow Brown drama. Once she started opening her mouth, she should have been replaced then and there. Gal just got caught in the drama crossfire.

In most contractual situations there are ethics and behavior clauses that companies use to exercise contractoral control.
But in the case of Ziegler she was in the Hollywood echo chamber where all of those fools believe they were "leading the country" in their ideology. So basically this backfired on Disney-culture itself as much as anything.

Which part is controversial to you? The "unprovoked" one?
I can't help but feel that the word "unprovoked" should be taboo across the entire middle east - a place where "provocation" is basically way of life for literally almost everyone there even if justified only by religiosity and nothing else.

These articles below have all of the changes made from the original film. What’s most surprising, however, is:
The true love’s kiss scene is still included and it wasn’t done with a twist like in Maleficent. Her new love interest Jonathan kisses her on the lips and it revives her. They must’ve added it in during the reshoots.

Fortunately, the opening weekend box office looks like it's going to be a big bomb.
I hadn't watched anything beyond the first teaser but after I read a review in the newspaper - which was especially harsh about the CG - I got curious, watched the trailer and OH MY GOD do these dwarves look f*cking horrible or what?

Seen some clips for someone's review. There are scenes where the movie has so much CGI even Snow White herself looks CGI even when we know she's supposed to be the only real person in the scene.
They said are very few scenes filmed at an actual forest location, and the difference is so jarring it looked like the movie took place in a whole other country.

IDK, maybe her scenes were CGI enhanced (I don't know why) or maybe it's because she's surrounded by so many bright colors and CGI backgrounds she awkwardly blends into it all.

It sounds like much worse than I feared. The mother and father of Snow White's kingdom is literally a communist haven, and the movie goes out of its way to actively tries to teach kids about good, working communism values ("what's yours is mine" and so on) and even in songs. And Snow White restores order by bringing back the communist haven in the end.

Here's an inside look at the film's fiasco, which was largely Rachel Zegler's fault. Producer Marc Platt tried to talk to her about her unprofessionalism more than once, and after what said about the 2024 presidential election Zegler began work with a social media gru paid by Disney to vet any posts before the film's release.

Also my understanding was that the movie explained that she was named Snow White because she was born during a snow storm, rather than.. you know, being as white as snow.
Apparently Snow White actually beat Dragonball Evolution for lowest opening weekend ever. 2.1 Million to Dragonball's 2.5 Million. And Dragonball Evolution was universally hated.
Hell it was hated so much that the creator un-retired himself from Dragonball and started making more content just so that the last recorded form of Dragonball wouldn't be that movie. And Snow White was somehow worse than that.

From what I heard their social media manager flew out to tell Zegler to STFU and delete some of her tweets and other nonsense. Too little too late, should been done before the movie was released.
