  • WRITETHRU: Refresh for more analysis and chart....Disney's Snow White is coming in lighter for the weekend with $43M domestic and an $87.3M global start. Not a happy ending for this $270M production,

The article discusses the anticipated box office performance of Disney's live-action remake of "Snow White," which is set to open in the mid-40 million dollar range. This figure places it in a similar opening weekend range as Disney's 2019 live-action "Dumbo," which opened with $45.9 million. Despite the star power of Rachel Zegler and Gal Gadot, and the iconic status of the original 1937 animated film, the new "Snow White" has faced some controversy and mixed reactions, particularly regarding changes to the story and character portrayals. The film's opening numbers suggest a cautious audience response, possibly influenced by these controversies or by the general reception of recent Disney remakes. The article also notes that Disney's strategy of remaking its animated classics into live-action films has had varied success, with some films like "The Lion King" performing exceptionally well, while others like "Dumbo" have had more modest results.
