As someone who grew up, thanks to my mum’s love of the films, on Disney’s legacy of animated classics, I went into the 2025 live-action Snow White hoping for something that would both honour the past and confidently step into the present. What I got was a film that is caught in an awkward tug-of-war between honouring its classic roots and reshaping itself for contemporary sensibilities.

Directed by Marc Webb and starring Rachel Zegler as Snow White and Gal Gadot as the Evil Queen, this adaptation is undeniably ambitious. From the outset, it’s clear that this isn’t exactly the same story told in 1937 (something other Disney live-action remakes fail to do sometimes). Here,...

The reimagination of the iconic fairytale couldn’t have been more riddled with controversy. From Rachel Zegler’s less-than-savory interview moments to some of the creative decisions in the film, Snow White‘s (2025) fate was sealed even before its release. One of the biggest controversies surrounding the remake was Peter Dinklage’s criticism, as he called the film backward for playing into stereotypes when it comes to dwarfism.

Peter Dinklage has a form of dwarfism called ‘achondroplasia’ and is one of the most famous actors in Hollywood thanks to his iconic role in Game of Thrones. While he berated Disney for being outdated, Peter Dinklage’s views did not sit right with many actors with dwarfism, including Dylan Postl, who still has a bone to pick with the actor.

Before we get into why...

Lilo and Stitch has proven that there's still plenty of life in Disney's live-action remakes of animated classics, but the recent reimagining of one of the Mouse House's most popular and well-known tales was a rare misfire.

Snow White arrives on Disney+ tomorrow, and has officially finished up its box office run as one of Disney's worst performing live-action remakes.

The movie, which stars Rachel Zegler in the title role and Gal Gadot as the Evil Queen, ended its theatrical run with $205.5 million worldwide. Only 2016's Pete's Dragon ($143.7 million and 2020's Mulan ($69.9 million) - which, to be fair, debuted during Covid with a simultaneous Premier Access streaming release - have fared worse.

Snow White received mostly negative reviews (40% on Rotten Tomatoes), but was plagued by controversy (whether it was warranted or not is up for debate) in the build-up to its release, which probably didn't help.

Be it Zegler's comments about the animated original,...

Disney‘s live-action Snow White remake is set to arrive on Digital on May 13, followed by 4K Uhd, Blu-ray, and DVD on June 24.

The movie, which stars Rachel Zegler as the titular princess and Gal Gadot as the Evil Queen, did not perform very well at the box office (probably an understatement), and had yet to pass the $100 million milestone domestically in its third weekend in theaters.

Snow White will finish its theatrical run with just over $200 million worldwide, and is expected to end up costing the studio upwards of $115 million.

Per the official press release: "The live-action musical retelling of the classic animated Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs sweeps audiences of all ages into an adventure that blends nostalgia, notable new visuals, and a memorable soundtrack, taking story-telling to all-new fairytale heights. New productions of long-beloved songs complement five original “contemporary kingdom” tunes thoughtfully crafted by Egot winners Benj Pasek and Justin Paul,...

Exclusive: Film Seekers has boarded indie flick Bad Haircut from filmmaker Kyle Misak and will launch sales at the upcoming Cannes Market.

The film follows Billy, a socially awkward college student who hits rock bottom after a humiliating encounter at a party.

The synopsis reads: Billy’s two closest friends decide it’s time for him to get a new look and take him to their barber, the wildly eccentric and possibly deranged Mick. What starts as a simple haircut quickly spirals into a surreal nightmare. Trapped in a barbershop turned battleground, Billy is forced to confront more than just his insecurities.

Bad Haircut stars Spencer Harrison Levin as Billy and Frankie Ray as Mick. The supporting cast includes TikToker Nora Freetly, Martin Klebba (Pirates of the Caribbean), Jake Busey (Starship Troopers), Mindy Sterling (Austin Powers), Larry Hankin (Friends), and Kevin Dunn.

As if Disney's live-action Snow White remake wasn't experiencing enough box office woes, the movie has now been banned completely in one particular region.

According to Variety, Snow White has been banned from playing in all movie theaters in Lebanon due to the involvement of Evil Queen actress Gal Gadot, who is said to be on the country's "boycott list."

Lebanon’s Interior Minister Ahmad Al-Hajjar reportedly ordered the ban after being prompted to take action by the country’s film and media watchdog amid Israel’s ongoing attacks on Hezbollah. However, Beirut-based Middle East distributor Italia Films believes that the ban would have happened anyway, as Gadot has long been on Lebanon’s “Israel boycott list” and no movie in which she appears in has ever been released there.

The Wonder Woman star has been an open supporter of Israel, and served in the Israel Defense Forces (as her...

Disney’s “Snow White” has been banned from playing in movie theaters in Lebanon as star Gal Gadot is on the country’s boycott list, according to local media reports.

Local newspaper An-Nahar reported that the ban was ordered by Lebanon’s Interior Minister Ahmad al-Hajjar, who made the decision amid Israel’s ongoing attacks on Hezbollah in Lebanon, which have killed civilians.

Gadot, who portrays The Evil Queen in the live-action remake, was born in Israel and served in the Israel Defense Forces. She has been an outspoken advocate for the country since the Oct. 7 Hamas attacks.

“Never did I imagine that on the streets of the United States, and different cities around the world, we would see people not condemning Hamas, but celebrating, justifying and cheering on a massacre of Jews,” Gadot said in a March 4 speech at the Anti-Defamation League’s annual summit in New York City.

Disney’s live-action remake of Snow White, starring Rachel Zegler and Gal Gadot, has faced significant backlash since its release, with both critics and audiences expressing disappointment. Zegler, who portrayed the titular character, has come under fire for her outspoken political views and her remark on the Disney classic. As a result, the $250 million production struggled to capture audiences and received poor reviews.

On a recent episode of Joe Rogan’s podcast, the host and his guest discussed the movie’s failure and the controversy surrounding it. However, they believe Disney made an even bigger mistake, placing blame on the studio’s broader strategy rather than just Zegler’s controversial role.

Disney’s Snow White took in just $1.5 million on Friday in the U.S., dropping 60% from its daily total one week ago.

The movie is now in fourth place at the domestic box office (video game adaptation A Minecraft Movie immediately shot to No. 1), and currently sits at $72 million, putting it in serious danger of failing to hit the $100 million milestone in North America. This would be a disastrous result for a film with a reported production budget of $250 million.

Snow White received mixed-negative reviews from critics (it's now dropped to 40% on Rotten Tomatoes), but audiences did seem to be getting a little more out of it for the most part (71%). That said, CinemaScore recently revealed that the movie has earned a B+ grade, which isn't terrible by any means, but is reportedly the lowest ever CinemaScore for any live-action Disney remake. The studio's most recent offering, Mufasa: The Lion King,...

Disney's Snow White hit theaters last Friday, and the movie has not been performing very well at the box office, making just $43 million over the course of its opening weekend in the U.S. The latest updates put the fantasy adventure at just under $50M domestic, but it still hasn't reached $100M worldwide.

Critics have not been overly kind to Disney's latest live-action remake, although it's important to note that the movie has been the source of "controversy" for quite a while, with stars Rachel Zegler and Gal Gadot both coming in for backlash for their very different stances on the Israeli/Palestinian conflict. Zegler also made some comments about the original animated classic that didn't go over very well with fans.

This week, Variety published what many consider to be a "hit piece" on Zegler, and the article definitely suggests that the studio is at least partially laying the...

Despite the controversy surrounding the seven dwarfs, the recently shuttered Mpc aimed to find the difficult sweet spot between painterly and photoreal in “Snow White,” translating them in a way that does justice to the hand-drawn aesthetic of Walt’s revolutionary debut feature from 1937. It’s shame that it’s one of the VFX studio’s last hurrahs, after working on the Oscar-winning “The Jungle Book” (2016), the Oscar-nominated “The Lion King” (2019), and the “Mufasa” (2024) prequel.

However, Mpc doesn’t stand alone. They followed Tim Burton’s “Alice in Wonderland” (2010), the first of the Disney live action remakes, which benefited from the tech achievements of Sony Pictures Imageworks, while Weta Digital created something iconic with the friendly dragon from David Lowery’s “Pete’s Dragon” (2016).

Let’s see how the dwarfs stack up against some of these other notable CG characters:

There's no hiding from the fact that Disney's Snow White has managed to find relative early success in a year dominated by underperformance. Although the film might have earned less than Disney execs may have liked on its opening weekend, an $85 million opening has placed Snow White firmly among the highest earners of the year so far, ready to overtake Mickey 17 and enter the top 5 for 2025, albeit only a third of the way into the year. This, of course, doesn't take away from the fact that Snow White has a reported budget of $240-270 million, with it already unlikely that any sort of financial success will have been realized come Snow White's theatrical exit.

Critically, the movie has fared even worse than at the box office, with its opening score on review aggregatorRotten Tomatoes of 45% officially dropping even lower after its opening weekend. Now, Snow White is anything but the fairest of them all,...

Disney's Snow White arrived in theaters on Friday, and the Mouse House's latest live-action remake looks set for a disappointing opening weekend at the box office.

The musical fantasy adventure, which stars Rachel Zegler as the titular Princess and Gal Gadot as the Evil Queen, came in under already modest $45 million estimates with a $43 million domestic debut. The movie took in another $44.3 million overseas, which means it will fail to hit its predicted $100 million global bow with just $87.3 million.

This was enough to give Snow White the No. 1 spot, and the movie is sure to benefit from a lack of big-screen competition for the next couple of weeks before A Minecraft Movie hits theaters.

A recent Forbes article claimed that Snow White's budget had ballooned to a whopping $269.4 million by the end of 2023 (current reports put it at $250M), which obviously puts a lot of pressure on the movie to...

Disney's Snow White has become one of the most talked-about films of 2025, and likely not for the reasons anyone expected. The film is the long-awaited remake of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, the very first full-length animated film that Walt Disney produced and helped launch the Disney film empire that endures today. Coming 15 years into Disney's modern remake cycle, it is certainly surprising that a live-action remake of Snow White took this long. Part of the reason might have been that audiences might have been overwhelmed by Snow White, as, in 2012, there were three separate Snow White projects.

In 2012, there were two big-budget Snow White films released, not by Disney. Disney's Snow White relaunch was on the small screen. These projects were Relativity Media's Mirror Mirror, Universal Pictures' Snow White and the Huntsman, and ABC's Once Upon a Time. Despite the two movies getting a lot of media attention,...

Disney's Snow White is now in theaters, and the Mouse House's latest live-action remake isn't exactly off to the most magical start at the domestic box office.

The musical fantasy adventure, which stars Rachel Zegler as the titular Princess and Gal Gadot as the Evil Queen, took in $16 million on Friday (including Thursday pre-shows), which is just slightly higher than 2019's Dumbo.

Despite initial estimates of $50 million, the movie is now on track for a $45 million (some believe it'll be closer to $48M) opening weekend in the U.S., but is still expected to pass (or at least hit) $100 million worldwide by Monday.

A recent Forbes article claimed that Snow White's budget had ballooned to a whopping $269.4 million by the end of 2023 (current reports put it at $250M), which obviously puts a lot of pressure on the movie to become a massive box office success. The film won't have...

Disney’s live-action Snow White hits theaters March 21 with Rachel Zegler and Gal Gadot, but it’s not the first movie in recent years to mine the classic fairy tale. In 2012, director Tarsem Singh’s Mirror Mirror starred Lily Collins as Snow White and Julia Roberts as the Evil Queen in an updated version of the Brothers Grimm tale, previously told in the 1937 animated classic Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.

The 2012 film debuted amid a wave of fairy tale reboots, following 2011’s Amanda Seyfried-led Red Riding Hood and coming two months before Universal’s Snow White and the Huntsman, which starred Kristen Stewart, Charlize Theron and Chris Hemsworth.

Singh remembers pressure for his project to beat Universal’s movie to the punch. “We don’t have nearly their budget and their machine, so we have to come before them,” the director tells The Hollywood Reporter of his mindset.

To say that Disney's latest live-action remake was long-awaited would be an insult, but Snow White has at last come to theatres everywhere. While social media platforms around the interweb are on fire with the amount of vitriol for this film, is it really 100% bad?

Behind-the-scenes drama aside, the film itself will still resonate well with families with children, but not the Disney purist. Be that as it may, even this die-hard Disnerd will admit that the film at least has one advantage over its predecessor.

Heigh-Ho, let's go!

Rachel Zegler's Snow White might not be everyone's favorite princess, and Gal Gadot's performance might also come with mixed reviews, but this writer certainly wasn't expecting the dwarves to be the most memorable feature (at least in a positive light). They aren't perfect, but they are still a refreshing take on the original characters.

Doc, Sleepy, Sneezy, Bashful, Happy,...

Disney’s live-action “Snow White” is here, taking the 1937 animated film into the real world, dwarves and all.

Although technically, in this version, they aren’t dwarves. As explained in the movie, they’re magical creatures that have lived in the woods for hundreds of years. That said, they still take on the names of the original seven dwarves.

And of course, there are some recognizable humans on screen as well as lending their voices to the merry bunch.

So, here are all the faces — and voices — you’ll need to know.

Snow White is Disney’s very first princess, and she’s brought to life here by Rachel Zegler. She made her big screen debut in Steven Spielberg’s “West Side Story” remake, and has since starred in movies like “The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes,...

Disney’s latest live-action remake of one of their classic animations is “Snow White,” and if you’re wondering how close it sticks to the original, you’re not alone. Especially when it comes to the songs.

Now in theaters, the film follows Snow White (Rachel Zegler), a young princess who loses both of her parents and now lives with just the Evil Queen. Snow remembers the kingdom as it was under her parents’ rule though, pushing the Queen to act with kindness and fairness. You can guess how that goes.

In terms of story, it does deviate from the original 1937 film in various places — including the songs. For the 2025 version, Disney tapped Egot-winning “La La Land” songwriters Benj Pasek and Justin Paul, known together as Pasek and Paul, to create original songs for the film. But don’t worry, you’ll definitely hear a few of the classics.

The film business has always been a gamble, and it is not easy for every project or movie to turn out to be a success. A high-stakes game where the odds are always greater, each year, hundreds of millions of dollars, hard work, effort, and time are spent on making blockbuster films, hoping for record-breaking box office returns. However, as history stands as a testament, not every big-budget spectacle turns out to be a major hit, and more often than not, they end up underperforming.

Even though the said big-budget films might have major filmmakers, screenwriters, or A-list actors attached to them, they sometimes end up flopping disastrously. And it is a feat that fans, critics, and Hollywood witness each and every year. Well, the box office in 2025 isn’t going to be any different, for sure.

While we...

Ahead of the wide release of Disney’s Snow White, the film’s first reviews from critics have been rolling in on Wednesday, and they’ve been decidedly mixed.

Directed by Marc Webb, the live-action adaptation of the 1937 Disney animated classic Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs sees a princess, Snow White (Rachel Zegler), join forces with seven dwarfs to liberate her kingdom from her cruel stepmother, the Evil Queen (Gal Gadot).

For years, the film has been under fire for a combination of controversies, including Zegler’s casting and her opinionated remarks about the original animated film. The star also drew heat for her hostile reaction to Donald Trump’s re-election (she later apologized) and her pro-Palestine stance. People on social media have also attempted to paint a feuding narrative between Zegler and Gadot, the latter of which has spoken out against antisemitism and advocated for the release of Israeli hostages in Gaza.

Of all the Disney animated classics to have been given the live-action treatment, few are more beloved than 1937’s Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, a landmark feature that opened the door to a whole vault of canonical fairy tales ideally suited to the form. That, in turn, led to original stories, building the studio a vast, field-leading toon library and a legacy beloved the world over. If Snow White arrives accompanied by an echo chamber of overblown online controversies, that has zero bearing on the pleasures of this 21st century update. Even those with knives out for the movie might have to admit it’s no poisoned apple.

Having turned this particular form of brand extension and IP strip-mining into a subgenre unto itself, Disney’s live-action remake boom — which has ballooned into a full-scale explosion in the past decade — has been a mixed bag. Some are such products...

Disney's Snow White arrives in theaters this weekend, and updated box office estimates are in. We also have some more social media reactions following the latest press screenings.

According to Deadline, the Mouse House's latest live-action remake is on track to take in between a $45M-$50M in North America and another $55M abroad for a worldwide debut of around $100M.

This wouldn't usually be seen as a bad start, but a recent Forbes article claimed that Snow White's budget had ballooned to a whopping $269.4 million by the end of 2023 (current reports put it at $250M), which puts a lot of pressure on the movie to become a massive box office success. The movie won't have much in the way of competition for a while, but it'll need strong legs to get it where it needs to be.

Full reviews are still under embargo, these latest X posts are...

Anthony and Joe Russo, the Russo Brothers, have directed some of the biggest movies of all time, with their film Avengers: Endgame coming in second place just behind James Cameron’s Avatar – and on March 14th, the Netflix streaming service released their latest film, the robot adventure The Electric State. The film topped the English films chart on Netflix over its debut weekend – but managed to do so with a surprisingly low number of views. The Electric State reached #1 with 25.2 million views, which pales in comparison to the debut numbers of recent hits like Back in Action (46.8 million views) and Carry On (42 million views), but is slightly higher than last year’s release of Rebel Moon – Part Two: The Scargiver. Still, this is the third Millie Bobby Brown-led film to debut at #1 for Netflix, following last year’s Damsel (which got started with 35.3 million views) and 2022’s Enola Holmes 2,...

The first social media reactions to Snow White are starting to come in following last night's world premiere in LA, and they are quite a bit more positive than you may have been expecting.

Though we are used to seeing a lot of gushing first reactions for pretty much every movie, Disney's latest live-action remake has come in for backlash from all corners for a number of reasons. The trailers didn't exactly do much to build anticipation, either, even among those who would usually look forward to Disney fare.

Disney held a scaled back premiere for the movie with no press invited to interview the stars on the red carped, and many believe the reason comes down to supposed "controversies" surrounding lead stars Rachel Zegler and Gal Gadot.

Here's what actor Martin Klebba - who provides the voice of Grumpy - had to say about the premiere during an interview with THR.

Martin Klebba, who voices Grumpy in the live-action “Snow White” has been diving head first into the controversy and is seemingly defending Disney’s choices for this film. Now he apparently gone deeper, even indicating that it would be hard to find seven “little people” who could act well together.

What has Klebba said?

Recently, he was upset that Disney decided to tone down the premiere of “Snow White” in Los Angeles. Many assume it was to keep the Snow White actress Rachel Zegler from saying something else stupid. But Klebba might want to make up for it?

He told The Hollywood Reporter,

“It really isn’t going to be a red carpet,” says Klebba, who emphasizes that he is very proud of the movie and cannot wait for audiences to see it. “It’s going to be at the El Capitan [Theatre], which is cool. But it’s basically going to be a pre-party,...

The world premiere of Disney's live-action Snow White movie was held last night (we'll have the first reactions for you a little later on), but the event lacked the glitz and glam we're used to seeing when the Mouse House usually screens a new film for the first time.

Press were not invited to interview the stars on the red carpet in favor of "a more celebratory, family-friendly afternoon event to match the tone and target audience for the film."

The real reason is believed to be at least partially due to "controversies" surrounding leads Rachel Zegler, who has been an outspoken supporter of Palestine and critic of President Donald Trump, and Gal Gadot, who has come to the defence of her home country of Israel. There have also been reports that both actresses didn't really get along while shooting the movie (although this has been disputed).

Martin Klebba, who...

Snow White, Disney’s live-action reimagining of the 1937 animated classic (itself based on the darker Brothers Grimm German fairytale), had its world premiere at Hollywood’s El Capitan Theatre today ahead of its March 21 release in theaters. Notable attendees included, of course, titular princess Rachel Zegler and evil queen Gal Gadot, as well as Disney CEO Bob Iger and producer Marc Platt; also at the fete were enthusiastic girls donning yellow and blue, greeted by starlet Zegler, and members of the Boys and Girls Club of San Fernando and Malibu affected by the Los Angeles wildfires earlier this year.

Other cast members walking the carpet were Martin Klebba, Lorena Andrea, Jason Kravits, Dujonna Gift and Indriss Kargbo. Broadway stars and cast members Tituss Burgess, Andrew Barth Feldman and Andrew Burnap were not in attendance.

According to a press release, guests were treated to a variety of activities, including a “forest friends grove with rabbits,...

Rachel Zegler and Gal Gadot hit the red carpet at the LA premiere of their movie Snow White held at El Capitan Theater on Saturday (March 15) in Hollywood.

The 23-year-old and the 39-year-old actresses star as Snow White and Evil Queen, respectively, and were both seen meeting young girls dressed as the titular character.

Also in attendance were their co-stars Martin Klebba (Grumpy), Jason Kravits (Sneezy), George Salazar (Happy), Andrew Grotelueschen (Sleepy), Emilia Faucher (Young Snow White), Lorena Andrea (Good Queen), Dujonna Gift (Maple) and Idris Kargbo (Bingley), as well as director Marc Webb, producer Marc Platt, songwriters Justin Paul and Benj Pasek, Disney stars Joshua Colley and Malachi Barton, Rachel Bloom, David Dastmalchian and Japanese boy band JO1.

The premiere also welcomed children from the San Fernando and Malibu chapters of Boys & Girls Club who were affected by recent fires in Los Angeles.

This past week, Martin criticized the...

When Rachel Zegler stepped onto the red carpet at the world premiere of Disney’s “Snow White” on Saturday afternoon in Hollywood, the newest Disney princess was greeted by a smaller-than-usual assembly of photographers to capture her light pink ballgown and dazzling diamonds.

Zegler’s co-star Gal Gadot, who plays the Evil Queen, soon followed, also smiling dutifully for the cameras assembled in the center of the tented venue outside the El Capitan Theatre that hosted the pre-party celebration ahead of the 3:30 p.m. screening.

Instead of the usual lineup of dozens of red carpet reporters, the only interviewers they encountered were employed by Disney, like Jodi Benson, who voiced Ariel in the studio’s 1989 animated classic “The Little Mermaid.” Such was the “scaled-back” premiere of “Snow White,” which hits theaters on March 21.

The highly awaited live-action adaptation of 1937’s animated movie Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Disney’s Snow White starring Rachel Zegler and Gal Gadot, is just a few days away from its release. Reports have suggested that the studios have opted for a low-key premiere of the movie to avoid controversial questions at the red carpet.

The film garnered more attention for its off-screen drama than the actual storyline, which is regarded as one of the best-told fairy tales in Disney. It turns out the leading women might have taken their roles too seriously, as recent reports suggest conflict.

Insiders claim Snow White stars Rachel Zegler and Gal Gadot are ‘not friends’

Directed by Marc Webb, Snow White, which stars Rachel Zegler as Snow White and Gal Gadot as the Evil Queen, has been the subject of controversy since it was announced.

Martin Klebba, who provides the voice of Grumpy in Disney’s live-action Snow White, has addressed the decision to alter the film’s premiere plans. The event, set to take place at El Capitan Theatre, will not include journalists on the red carpet, a shift Klebba attributes to concerns over public reaction.

“It really isn’t going to be a red carpet,” Klebba said. “It’s basically going to be a pre-party, watch the movie, and that’s it. Because of all this controversy, they’re afraid of the blowback from different people in society.”

The film, starring Rachel Zegler as Snow White and Gal Gadot as the Evil Queen, has been the subject of ongoing debate. Zegler, known for her outspoken views, previously criticized aspects of the original 1937 animated classic, calling some of its story elements outdated. The actress has also faced backlash for past social media comments, including...

Martin Klebba is speaking out about this weekend’s premiere of Snow White.

The 55-year-old actor is set to voice the character of Grumpy, who is one of the seven dwarfs, in the upcoming Disney live-action adaptation of the company’s first ever animated feature.

Earlier this week, it was announced that the movie’s Los Angeles premiere event on Saturday (March 15) will be a more intimate affair. Disney apparently did not invite typical media outlets to interview the cast and creatives on the red carpet, but instead, there will just be a pre-party, a screening, photographers, and a house crew.

In a new interview, Martin shared how he feels about the studio’s decision to scale back the premiere event.

“It really isn’t going to be a red carpet,” he told THR. “It’s going to be at the El Capitan [Theatre], which is cool.

One performer from Disney’s new Snow White is sharing his thoughts amid the debate surrounding the launch for the live-action movie.

Martin Klebba — who has appeared in two previous versions of Snow White, including the 2012 feature Mirror Mirror that stars Julia Roberts and Lily Collins — provides the voice of Grumpy in the new movie and also serves as an advisor for the miner characters. Klebba tells The Hollywood Reporter that the recent controversy surrounding Snow White, which has led to the film’s Saturday premiere not inviting press onto the red carpet, has meant a less exciting celebration for those involved in the project that stars Rachel Zegler as the title character and Gal Gadot as the Evil Queen.

“It really isn’t going to be a red carpet,” says Klebba, who emphasizes that he is very proud of the movie and cannot wait for audiences to see it.

The live-actionSnow White remake continues its struggle to garner a strong buzz as the casting controversy surrounding its main star drags on. Lead actor Rachel Zegler responds to the latest criticism hurled her way as the Disney film's debut draws near.

Via her Instagram page, Zegler addressed a complaint from a fan who questioned her fitness for the role and her singing abilities. The fan said "no thanks" to her casting and asked Disney why the studio found it “difficult to cast a soprano,” alluding to Zegler's singing range. However, Zegler responded gracefully, saying, “I am a soprano!” before pointing him to West Side Story on Disney+ to see more of her singing prowess. The West Side Story remake, helmed by Oscar-winning director Steven Spielberg, was a breakthrough for Zegler, whose performance as Maria showed she was a soprano, a requirement for the film.

With a week to go before...

While Disney has attempted to limit the public interactions of Snow White stars Rachel Zegler and Gal Gadot in the midst of more controversies than we have time to go into right now, the recent decision to “scale back” the Hollywood premiere of the new live-action adaptation of Walt Disney’s first feature film has drawn more aggravation from one of the movie’s other stars. While the low-key premiere of Snow White may be saving its leading ladies from answering some awkward questions, one star is feeling very grumpy about the whole thing.

Best known for roles in movies such as Pirates of the Caribbean, Martin Klebba gives voice to the often-glum dwarf Grumpy, and he is not happy about the decision made to prevent Snow White’s actors getting their usual moment in the spotlight with full press coverage.

Disney's Snow White remake is soon heading to theaters following a lengthy delay associated with the Hollywood strikes of 2023. The film is scheduled to premiere on the big screen on March 21, making Snow White the latest Disney Princess to be given the live-action treatment.

This week, it was reported that the Snow White premiere in Hollywood was being scaled back, with Disney opting for limited photographers and a house crew on the red carpet. This is in stark contrast to what's typically done with big-budget Disney movies, with the red carpet treatment usually seeing dozens of various media outlets invited to attend and ask the cast and crew questions about the film. Per TMZ, this has gotten Grumpy voice actor Martin Klebba living up to his character's name.

According to the outlet, Klebba is "seriously bummed and a bit pissed" that Snow White isn't getting the massive premiere treatment. Reportedly,...

Considering federal aid has been cut so much that millions of people will contract polio and malaria as a result, The Electric State has a budget that could be described as a crime against humanity. Just as "no one man should have all that power," no one movie should have $320 million at its disposal, especially if it's not even going to be in theaters. There are countless films that cost $319 million less to make than this, and people should be advised to see them instead. Then again, there's kind of a twisted, disturbing thrill in watching money burn.

I sincerely wanted The Electric State to be better than the rumors suggested. I went in with an open mind, and even my absence of expectations were let down. Hollywood needs an intervention. It requires less money. Like those big banks we all love, it needs breaking.

A Rush to Explain Mr.

Tickets for Snow White are now on sale, and Disney has released a new trailer, a teaser focusing on the Evil Queen (Gal Gadot), and a number of new posters for its latest live-action remake.

The trailer features quite a bit of new footage of Rachel Zegler's titular Princess arriving to the Enchanted Forest, where she encounters her seven diminutive companions for the first time.

The teaser, meanwhile, shows the Queen erupting in anger upon learning that her stepdaughter still lives and is "fairest of them all." We also get to see the villain's "old crone" form, as she tricks Snow White into accepting the gift of a poisoned apple.

“I am so excited for audiences and fans around the world to see this sneak peek and to revisit the magical world of Snow White,” said director Marc Webb in a recent statement. “Our goal has always been to honor the original animated film,...

Rachel Zegler, the star of Disney’s Snow White, was in Tokyo earlier today to perform “Waiting on a Wish,” the first single from Walt Disney Records’ original soundtrack. You can watch both the music video for the song and an acoustic version of the song in new videos.

She was joined on stage by local actress and singer Sakura Kiryu, who provides the Japanese dubbing voice of Snow White, at Roppongi Hills Arena. They performed for hundreds of fans who lined the red carpet.

This one is an adaptation of a narrative artbook / graphic novel from acclaimed artist and author Simon Stålenhag, and features a prologue that takes place before the events of Stålenhag’s book.

The story of this film begins in July of 2017, when Free League launched a Kickstarter campaign to raise funds for Stålenhag’s book called The Electric State, which had the following description: In late 1997, a runaway teenager and her yellow toy robot travel west through a strange USA, where the ruins of gigantic battle drones litter the countryside heaped together with the discarded trash of a...
