As a devoted Disney enthusiast, I’m excitedly peeking at the 2025 movie lineup that boasts some undoubtedly successful films, such as “Avatar: Fire and Ash” and “Zootopia 2.” However, it also holds a few mysteries, with the most intriguing being the upcoming live-action adaptation of “Snow White,” featuring Rachel Zegler. This production has already garnered its share of controversy even before its release.
Disney’s live-action adaptations span from massive box office triumphs to disappointing releases on Disney+. While there are several factors that could make Snow White a hit, the movie has been embroiled in controversy for years due to various reasons ranging from Rachel Zegler’s casting to anticipated modifications of the original tale.
In her conversation with Vogue Mexico (as reported by Variety), Zegler attributes all the recent criticism to an exceptionally devoted fan base. She stated…
As a cinematic enthusiast, it’s clear that this movie has stirred deep emotions within its audience. It’s a privilege to be involved in a production that sparks such fervor. Not everyone will see things exactly as I do, but that’s the beauty of art – we each bring our unique perspectives. All I can strive for is to deliver my best, and hope it resonates with viewers in meaningful ways.
The actress appears to be choosing the more elevated approach in her remarks, since criticism against Zegler’s casting began almost immediately after it was announced. It seems that “strong feelings” or “controversy” might be a less direct way of acknowledging some people’s concerns about Zegler being cast as a Latina Disney character.
To put it simply, many people who profess to be passionate about the original Snow White story were upset when Zegler mentioned that the upcoming film wouldn’t feature Snow White being rescued by a prince. This change appeared to deviate significantly from the traditional tale, which some believe could make for a more engaging movie adaptation.
At every step, it appears there has been a fresh wave of debate. Upon the release of the initial trailer for “Snow White“, one might have held onto the optimism that viewers would recognize the new movie’s strong ties to the classic Disney version. However, what fans actually went wild about was the appearance of the CGI dwarves instead.
The main question now revolves around the impact of such intense enthusiasm for an 85-year-old film like “Snow White” on ticket sales. Will audiences eager to see the remake flock to theaters, making it a box office success, or will those who harbor reservations about the movie choose not to attend?
Occasionally, a film stirring up debate can draw in audiences, as they’re curious about the hubbub surrounding it. As of now, it’s uncertain whether Snow White will fall into this category; however, its success or failure could significantly impact discussions in the film industry this year. If Snow White succeeds, it might pave the way for a prosperous year for Disney. Conversely, a flop could potentially affect Disney’s theatrical releases for the remainder of 2025.
