Disney's Snow White,[6][7] or simply Snow White, is a 2025 American musical fantasy film[8] directed by Marc Webb from a screenplay by Erin Cressida Wilson. Produced by Walt Disney Pictures and Marc Platt Productions, it is a live-action reimagining[9] of Walt Disney's 1937 animated film Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, itself based on the 1812 fairy tale "Snow White" by the Brothers Grimm. The film stars Rachel Zegler as the title character, a princess who escapes assassination by her stepmother, the Evil Queen (Gal Gadot), and joins with seven magical beings[a] and a rogue bandit named Jonathan (Andrew Burnap) to reclaim her kingdom.
Plans for a Snow White remake were confirmed in October 2016, with Wilson attached as a screenwriter. Webb entered talks to direct in May 2019 and was announced as director in September. Principal photography took place in the UK from March to July 2022, with additional reshoots taking place in June 2024. The film was initially set to be released in March 2024 but faced delays due to the SAG-AFTRA strike.
Prior to its release, the film generated significant controversy regarding its color-blind casting, changes to the story, and the reimagining of the Seven Dwarfs. Additional controversy stemmed from lead actress Zegler's public critiques of the original film and Donald Trump, as well as her and Gadot's opposing views on the Israeli–Palestinian conflict, leading to calls for boycotts on both political sides.
Snow White premiered at the Alcázar of Segovia in Segovia, Spain, on March 12, 2025, and was theatrically released in the United States on March 21. It received mixed reviews; critics praised Zegler's performance but took issue with some of the film's stylistic choices. With a production budget of $240–270 million, it is one of Disney's most expensive films. It has grossed $204.9 million worldwide becoming one of the top box office films of 2025.[13][14] Due to its high budget and underperformance at the box office, it is considered by analysts to be a box-office bomb.[15]
