First Look: Live-Action Seven Dwarfs and New Release Date

Disney’s newest live-action remake is ripe with controversy. The concept of the seven dwarfs is one of them. Today we have our first look at what they will look like. Plus, there is a new release date and it’s not what you were expecting.

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs

Disney’s first full-length animated feature is none other than Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Released in 1937, this classic film is a beloved story that has stood the test of time.

The story tells of Snow White and her wicked Stepmother. When the Evil Queen finds out she is no longer the fairest of them all, she tries to have Snow White killed.

Snow White finds herself in the woods and stumbles upon the home of the Seven Dwarfs. The Evil Queen meets Snow White at the cottage and gets her to eat the poison apple.

The prince comes to her rescue and breaks the spell with true love’s kiss!

Live Action Remake and Controversy

The live action remake has been in the works for a few years now. It originally had a 2023 release date, but was pushed back to 2024.

The film has not gone without receiving criticism already. Peter Dinklage, the actor best known for his role in Game of Thrones had a lot to say about the film and how it will handle representation of little people. Instead, the live-action film will have magical creatures versus casting little people.

Actress Rachel Zegler has also made some comments about the film and instances where the live-action may stray from the original story. Such comments received some intense backlash, with fans calling the adaptation “woke.”

New Photo and Release Date

Unfortunately, the release date has been pushed back again. Instead of premiering in March 2024, the live-action Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs will hit theaters on March 21, 2025.

But, Disney did share a new photo of Snow White plus Bashful, Doc, Dopey, Grumpy, Happy, Sleepy, and Sneezy. You can see it right here:
