Everything We Know So Far About the Disney Live-Action Remake

Snow White is the latest Disney classic to get a live-action remake. Disney has a long history of turning its animated classics into live-action film remakes and next in line to follow the trend is the 1937 Disney film Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Snow White’s tale was written in 1812 by the Brothers Grimm and it was published in their book Grimms’ Fairy Tales as a German fairy tale. Snow White’s animated adaptation was the first full-length traditionally animated feature film and also Disney’s first animated feature film.

Walt Disney Pictures broke the news of live-action remake plans for Snow White in October 2016. Snow White was announced to be released in 2024 at the 2022 D23 Expo Presentation. Walt Disney Studios Twitter account confirmed the release window through an official tweet. Later in 2022 as part of a scheduling change, Snow White has a release date of March 22, 2024, and Walt Disney has planned a theatrical release for the film.

Why Is Disney’s Snow White Remake Being Condemned?

There is not an iota of doubt that Disney fans love the animated films of the franchise to the core but nevertheless, they are also kind of now frustrated with the remakes of their favorite animated films. Staying true to its decade-old practice, Disney is already on the verge of completing the remake of its debut animated film, Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs. This time it has also undergone a titular change and the film is named just Snow White. The plot of the film is expected to be dramatically changed compared to the original film as numerous new adjustments have been incorporated in the upcoming film.

Recently glimpses of the upcoming live-action film were showcased at CineEurope and since then while some fans cannot keep calm waiting for their favorite story to return on the big screen, there is another segment of fans who are not at all eager to see a remake. The film has also faced racist backlash for casting Rachel Zegler as Snow White because it goes against the common notion of a white Snow White.
