The Snow White movie may be delayed and Disney has asked it to reshoot

The live-action "Snow White" movie is scheduled to be released on March 22, 2024. However, foreign media recently reported that Disney has asked the movie "Snow White" to reshoot. At the same time, due to the Hollywood strike not ending, the movie cannot catch up with the original release date and can only choose to withdraw and postpone.

Although the official reason why the "Snow White" movie was asked to be rescheduled was not disclosed, media and netizens speculated that it might be related to the "anti-male" remarks made by Rachel Zegler, who plays Snow White.

Rachel previously expressed her disgust for the original Snow White, saying that the original story is totally out of date and that the original Prince Charming is like a stalker who follows Snow White, which is disgusting in her opinion. She also believes that there should be no men in Snow White, no love, and that Snow White should be the ruler.

Rachel's remarks sparked huge controversy online, with many netizens accusing her of disrespecting the original work and stirring up gender antagonism. The son of Snow White animator David Hand also publicly criticized Disney's magic changes as an insult to the original version, saying his father would be so angry that he would crawl out of his grave. He said: "They changed the story and the entire concept, and now they are all doing some so-called politically correct things."

Perhaps due to negative comments online, Disney had to reshoot the movie. But an insider revealed that the delay of the Snow White movie was not due to the controversial remarks made by the lead actress, as Rachel's role as the heroine was well-liked by the test audience. The movie has not yet been completed and still needs to be reshot.
