Rachel Zegler on 'Snow White' remake backlash: 'People are so passionate'

Disney’s Snow White remake is making waves, but not the magical kind! From Rachel Zegler’s outspoken take on the original fairytale to a controversial revamp of the Seven Dwarfs, the film has sparked a social media storm. Fans have bombarded trailers with dislikes, questioning everything from casting choices to CGI quality.

With its massive $300 million budget and ongoing reshoots, Disney is betting big on this reimagining—but will audiences embrace it? Some see it as a bold step forward, while others claim it’s strayed too far from the beloved classic. Meanwhile, Zegler remains firm, stating, “People are so passionate,” as debates rage on.

As Snow White approaches its March 2025 release, all eyes are on whether it will be a groundbreaking success or Disney’s latest misfire. Will this fairytale have a happy ending, or is the magic already fading?

Many fans of the original 1937 film feel that the live-action adaptation is unnecessary and strays too far from its roots. They argue that changes to Snow White’s character, the Seven Dwarfs, and even the storyline remove the charm that made the classic so beloved. The backlash has been evident in the overwhelming number of dislikes on trailers, harsh social media criticism, and widespread skepticism about the film’s direction​.

On the other hand, some viewers support the changes, seeing them as a natural evolution of storytelling. They praise the move toward a more independent Snow White and a diverse cast, arguing that classic fairytales should adapt to modern values. Supporters also point out that backlash against Disney remakes is common—similar outrage surrounded The Little Mermaid before its release, but the film still found success with audiences who appreciated its updates​.
