Disney's Live-action Snow White & the Seven Dwarfs

*ranger_scout* · 05-30-2019, 04:51 PM

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.

Oh god, make it stop...

*CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy* · 05-30-2019, 05:06 PM

Because Mirror Mirror and Snow White and the Huntsman weren't mediocre enough.

Thanks, Disney.

*Utrommaniac* · 05-30-2019, 05:19 PM

Oh god, does this mean we'll be getting Peter Dinklage in a Snow White movie???

I'm not sure if I would love that or hate it. Or...you could say happy or grumpy about it

I'll show myself out.

How many ****ing live action movies do you have to make Disney seriously it's getting old ****ing stop disney

Edit ok sorry for my tantrum but seriously this is getting worst everytime Disney and they are just like MoNeY

*FredWolfLeonardo* · 05-30-2019, 06:38 PM

Every pitch for a new Live Action remake.

*Allio* · 05-30-2019, 07:48 PM

Great, now I’m reminded that RavenxApple, aka Poison Apple, wasn’t confirmed

*ranger_scout* · 05-30-2019, 08:50 PM

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.

That film was distributed by Relativity Media.

I really like Mirror Mirror.

For the love of god and my sanity make them stop remaking their animated movies. If they want remake something how about making animated versions of their old live action movies from the 40's, 50's, and 60's.

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs debuted in 1937.

*drgon78* · 05-31-2019, 05:45 AM

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs isn't a live action movie from the 40's, 50's, or 60's.

*sdp* · 05-31-2019, 11:11 AM

They have to eventually remake Atlantis right? Right?

*ranger_scout* · 05-31-2019, 11:42 AM

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 misread your post. Sorry about that.

My first thought went directly to this:

*ranger_scout* · 09-29-2019, 04:17 PM

According to a report production could begin as early as March 2020 in Vancouver where the TV series Once Upon a Time was filmed. Disney has also apparently already begun a casting search for the main roles. Marc Webb is also set to direct the movie.

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.

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.
