Lilo Actress as Snow White: Adorable Photo Stuns Fans on Opening Weekend!

Disney’s much-anticipated adaptation of their animated classic “Snow White” into a live-action film officially hit theaters as part of the 2025 movie lineup. Contrasting with fluctuating box office reviews, it managed to draw the largest crowd during its debut weekend. Initially met with skepticism and controversy, it appears that families were keen on watching this production, including Maia Kealoha, who will portray Lilo in the upcoming live-action version of “Lilo & Stitch” scheduled for release in May.

Kealoha didn’t appear at the “scaled back” premiere of the beloved Disney Princess flick, but that didn’t stop her from showing her support for a fellow live-action remake during opening weekend. The young actress showed up at her local movie theater to see the film decked out in an adorable Snow White princess dress complete with tiara and matching royal blue gloves. Of course, her management team had to share the iconic look on her Instagram story. Take a look:

Beyond the enchanting attire, a tantalizing sneak peek of one of the fresh tunes from “Snow White,” titled “Waiting On A Wish,” sung by the charismatic actress Rachel Zegler, was also shared in that Instagram story. Although it was adorable, I couldn’t help but yearn for a more detailed post to learn about Kealoha’s heartfelt thoughts on the movie. I suspect she would lavish praise upon Zegler much like numerous other reviewers — even TopMob’s own Sarah El-Mahmound, who awarded the film 3.5 stars.

It’s heartening to witness the young actress advocating for Zegler and the entire Snow White crew, given her own movie release is just around the corner. Here’s hoping the West Side Story star returns the favor in May by attending Kealoha’s event – wouldn’t that be a charming display of camaraderie!

Addressing Critics: Why the Redo of Disney’s Classic ‘Snow White’ Was Necessary

In recent times, many Disney enthusiasts have voiced concerns over Disney’s decision to remake its classic tales in live-action. However, it’s essential we delve into why ‘Snow White’ specifically required this transformation.

Contrary to Snow White, which has been met with criticism for most of Disney’s decisions, the Lilo & Stitch adaptation appears to be more positively received by the public. Following the trailer release in early March, it seems that fans have generally had a favorable response. For the first time, viewers got a sneak peek at the new appearances of the cast members, including the popular side characters Jumba and Pleakley, who appear slightly different than their original animated versions. It’s possible that Disney has learned from its past mistakes, such as the controversial CGI dwarves in Snow White, which still seem to be a point of contention among audiences.

People’s opinions about Disney live-action remakes can vary greatly, leaving us unsure whether Lilo & Stitch will emulate successful remakes like Cinderella or spark controversy similar to Snow White and The Little Mermaid. I truly hope it falls into the former category, not just because I want a more welcoming introduction for Kealoha in Disney, but also to spare the newcomers like Zegler and Halle Bailey from the harsh experiences they’ve faced.

With TopMob, stay in the loop about all things connected to Lilo & Stitch, as we patiently wait for updates on when tickets will be on sale. Until then, think about visiting your local cinema to catch Snow White – remember, it was this enchanting animated princess that laid the foundation for Walt Disney Studios!
