Disney fans, hold onto your Mickey ears because the much-anticipated live-action “Snow White” starring Rachel Zegler is reportedly undergoing significant reshoots! As we eagerly await the film’s release, the buzz is growing louder after the announcement that the premiere has been pushed back nearly an entire year.
This development isn’t a standalone case among Disney’s ventures into live-action adaptations. We’ve seen iconic animated films like “Cinderella” (2015) and “Beauty and the Beast” (2017) being reimagined, stirring both excitement and debate among fans. Despite the mixed reactions, these classics have raked in millions at the box office, solidifying Disney’s commitment to revisiting its cherished tales. Remember the live-action “The Lion King” from 2019? It amassed over $1.6 billion!
However, the journey for “Snow White” has been particularly eventful. Rachel Zegler, known for her roles in “West Side Story” and “The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes,” has faced immense scrutiny since being cast as the beloved princess. Comments she made about the original film’s love story and changes to iconic scenes, like the poison apple moment, have sparked heated discussions among fans.
Fueling the anticipation and speculation, sources such as Cosmic Marvel have leaked that reshoots are currently underway in London. While the exact details and duration remain under wraps, it’s clear that Disney is pulling out all the stops to perfect this classic tale. The film, also starring Gal Gadot as the Evil Queen and Andrew Burnap, is now set to hit theaters on March 21, 2025.
Disney is continuing to build up the excitement, recently revealing behind-the-scenes footage at the CineEurope trade show. With a packed slate of releases in 2025, including Marvel’s “The Fantastic Four” and “Thunderbolts,” it’s going to be a thrilling year for Disney fans.
