Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs is an upcoming American musical fantasy film directed by Marc Webb, from a screenplay by Erin Cressida Wilson. The film is a live-action remake of the 1937 Disney film of the same name, which is based on the fairy tale Snow White, by the Grimm Brothers. It will star Rachel Zegler in the titular role and Gal Gadot as the Queen.

Walt Disney Pictures first announced plans for a Snow White remake in October 2016, with Wilson announced as screenwriter. Webb entered talks to direct the film in May 2019, and joined the film as director in September 2019.

Development and pre-production[edit]

On October 31, 2016, Variety reported that Walt Disney Pictures is developing a live-action remake of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, with Erin Cressida Wilson being in talks to write the screenplay.[2] On May 30, 2019, it was reported that Marc Webb was in talks to direct the film,[3] and on September 29, 2019, he was confirmed to be directing the film, while Cressida Wilson was confirmed to be writing the screenplay.[4] On May 29, 2021, it was reported that Webb was still attached to direct the film but would not begin work on it until later that year due to his schedule with the TV series Just Beyond.[5]

Casting[edit]

In June 2021, Rachel Zegler was cast in the titular role,[6] and in November, Gal Gadot was cast as the Evil Queen.[7] Later that month, Greta Gerwig was confirmed to be writing the screenplay.[8] On December 7, 2021, during the interview with ExtraTV, Rachel Zegler revealed that Snow White will be a lot stronger than the original.[9] A new casting search has been announced for a young actress to star as Young Snow White in the live-action remake.[10][11] On January 12, 2022, it was announced that Andrew Burnap was cast in the lead male role as a new character named Jonathan who is described as a "Robin Hood-like" person who serves as Snow White's love interest and "[follows] her into battle" and will have a singing role.[12][13]

Snow White casting[edit]

While appearing on Variety's Actors on Actors series with Andrew Garfield, Zegler opened up on the Snow White casting backlash. The young star recalled the casting announcement trending on Twitter for days due to the heated response to her landing the role and how she is looking to use this role and response for more positive means rather than let it get to her. she said:

“Never in a million years did I imagine that this would be a possibility for me. You don’t normally see Snow Whites that are of Latin descent. Even though Snow White is really a big deal in Spanish-speaking countries. Blanca Nieves is a huge icon whether you’re talking about the Disney cartoon or just different iterations and the Grimm fairy tale and all the stories that come with it. But you don’t particularly see people who look like me or are me playing roles like that. When it was announced, it was a huge thing that was trending on Twitter for days, because all of the people were angry. We need to love them in the right direction. At the end of the day, I have a job to do that I’m really excited to do. I get to be a Latina princess.”

— Rachel Zegler, [14]

Peter Dinklage's controversy[edit]

On January 25, 2022, during a recent interview on Marc Maron's WTF podcast to promote his new film, actor Peter Dinklage, who has a form of dwarfism and portrayed characters such as Tyrion Lannister in Game of Thrones, commented about the upcoming live-action Snow White remake, calling it a "backward story". He said:

"Literally no offense to anyone, but I was a little taken aback when they were very proud to cast a Latina actress as Snow White, but you're still telling the story of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Take a step back and look at what you're doing there. It makes no sense to me... You're progressive in one way, but then you're still making that f---ing backwards story about seven dwarfs living in a cave together, what the f--- are you doing, man? Have I done nothing to advance the cause from my soap box? I guess I'm not loud enough. I don't know which studio that is, but they were so proud of it. All love and respect to the actress and all the people who thought they were doing the right thing. But I'm just like, what are you doing?"

— Peter Dinklage, [15]

Disney responded to Dinklage's comments, stating that "to avoid reinforcing stereotypes from the original animated film, we are taking a different approach with these seven characters and have been consulting with members of the dwarfism community."[16]

Filming[edit]

Filming for Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs was originally set to begin in March 2020 in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.[4] However, filming was delayed to the mid or late 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[17][18][19][20] On June 22, 2021, it was announced that filming will begin in 2022.[6] In August 2021, it was announced that filming will take place in the United Kingdom from March 2022 to July 2022.[21][22]

Music[edit]

Songwriters Benj Pasek and Justin Paul, who previously wrote the lyrics for two new songs for Disney's 2019 remake of Aladdin, are set to write new songs for the film.[2]
