Walt Disney Pictures will change the storyline of the classic film Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs after it faced backlash.
The classic tale of Snow White tells the story of how a wicked stepmother put a hit out on her beautiful step-daughter in hopes of achieving being the most beautiful woman of all time. However, her step-daughter, Snow White, lived and was tucked away safely under the care of her seven dwarf friends.
Today, the 1937 movie is being turned into a live-action film, but the story is getting a slight revamp.
Rachel Zegler, who has been cast to play Snow White, said Disney wants the character to be “stronger.”
“There’s not much I can say about it besides the fact that Snow White has constantly been criticized,” Zegler said. “Even though she’s the original Disney princess and we love her so much, [she’s been] criticized for existing solely for a prince, existing solely to be rescued.”
She continued: “And I think that our director, Marc Webb, and everyone who’s working on this film has really taken her narrative and turned it into something that’s a lot stronger and I’m very, very excited to be able to bring that to life.“
