The recently unveiled teaser trailer for Disney’s live-action adaptation of "Snow White" at the D23 Expo has generated considerable excitement among audiences and industry professionals alike. This adaptation, which aims to reimagine the classic tale first introduced in the 1937 animated film, is set against a backdrop of contemporary sensibilities while retaining the enchanting essence of its source material. The trailer offers a glimpse into this duality, showcasing both familiar elements and innovative interpretations that reflect modern values.
One notable aspect of the teaser is its emphasis on character development, particularly through the portrayal of Snow White herself. Played by Rachel Zegler, Snow White is depicted not merely as a damsel in distress but as an empowered figure with agency and depth. This shift aligns with broader trends in media to present female protagonists who embody strength and resilience. The trailer hints at a narrative that explores her journey toward self-discovery, suggesting that this adaptation will delve deeper into themes of identity and empowerment than its predecessors.
Disney’s Snow White is a live-action musical reimagining of the classic 1937 film. The magical music adventure journeys back to the timeless story with beloved characters Bashful, Doc, Dopey, Grumpy, Happy, Sleepy, and Sneezy. “Disney’s Snow White” is directed by Marc Webb and produced by Marc Platt and Jared LeBoff, with Callum McDougall serving as executive producer, and features all-new original songs from Benj Pasek and Justin Paul.
"West Side Story" star Zegler called it "the honor of a lifetime" to star as the beloved Disney princess. She showed off her beautiful voice in clips featuring the classic song "Whistle While You Work," originally sung by voice actress Adriana Caselotti. The new "Snow White" will be released March 21, 2025.
The story, based on the framed Brothers Grimm tale, follows a princess who is rescued by seven dwarf miners who make Snow White part of their household after she’s exiled into a dangerous forest by her wicked stepmother.
Marc Webb (The Amazing Spider-Man and 500 Days of Summer) directs from a script by Barbie‘s Greta Gerwig and Erin Cressida Wilson, with Marc Platt producing. Tony winner Andrew Burnap is portraying a new male lead character. Original songs for the pic were penned by the Oscar-winning La La Land duo of Benj Pasek and Justin Paul.
