  • Newsweek reached out to a Disney spokesperson via email for comment.

Rachel Zegler, cast as Snow White in Disney's upcoming live-action remake, has sparked controversy with her comments on the original 1937 animated film, labeling it as dated and suggesting significant changes to the character's portrayal. Zegler has expressed that the new Snow White will not be saved by the prince, focusing instead on her leadership qualities and aspirations to become a leader, inspired by her late father's advice rather than waiting for true love's kiss. This shift in narrative has led to backlash from some fans who feel the changes are too "woke," accusing Disney of altering the classic tale to fit modern political correctness. Critics argue that these modifications strip away the essence of the original story, while supporters applaud the move towards a more empowered and independent Snow White. The debate has intensified discussions about the balance between updating stories for contemporary audiences and preserving the integrity of beloved classics.
