What happens

Disney's Snow White, or simply Snow White, is a 2025 American musical fantasy film and a live-action remake of Walt Disney's 1937 animated film Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, itself based on the 1812 fairy tale. Directed by Marc Webb and written by Erin Cressida Wilson, the film stars Rachel Zegler as Snow White, with Andrew Burnap and Gal Gadot in supporting roles. The reimagined story follows the princess Snow White, who escapes assassination by her stepmother, the Evil Queen, and joins with seven magical beings of the forest and a rogue bandit named Jonathan to reclaim her kingdom. Plans for a Snow White remake were confirmed in October 2016, with Wilson attached as a writer. Webb entered talks to direct in May 2019 and was announced as director in September. Principal photography took place in the United Kingdom from March to July 2022, with additional reshoots taking place in London. The film was initially set to be released in March 2024, but faced delays due to the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike. Before its release, the film generated significant controversy regarding its color-blind casting, changes to the story, and the reimagining of the Seven Dwarfs. Additional controversy stemmed from Zegler's public critiques of the original film and Donald Trump, as well as her and Gadot's opposing views on the Israeli–Palestinian conflict, leading to calls for boycotts on both political sides. Snow White premiered at the Alcázar of Segovia in Spain on March 12, 2025, and was released in the United States on March 21, to mixed reviews from critics. One of Disney's most expensive films, it was considered by analysts to be a box-office bomb, as it grossed $205.7 million worldwide against a production budget of $336.5 million, losing the studio $170 million. The film later debuted at the top of the viewership charts in the United States upon its release on Disney+. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
