Snow White (2025) is an upcoming Disney movie and a modern take on the classic 1937 animated film. This film is directed by Marc Webb, with screenplay by Greta Gerwig and Erin Cressida. Disney has changed the story to make it modern for today's audiences while still keeping the main idea of the classic fairy tale. The film features Rachel Zegler as Snow White and Gal Gadot as the Evil Queen. Other cast members include Andrew Burnap, Anguilla Kabia, Dujonna Gift, and Martin Klebba. The live-action Snow White will have a budget of $245–$270 million.


The film is expected to bring new twists to the traditional story. Instead of following the original plot, Disney has taken steps to give it a modern turn. According to the trailer dropped by Disney, there is one major change that can be seen in the film. In an interview with Variety, Rachel Zegler said, "She's not going to be saved by The Prince and she's not going to be dreaming about true love," she added "She's dreaming about becoming the leader that she knows she can be, and the leader that her late father told her that she could be if she was fearless, fair, brave and true."

Disney’s live-action film, Snow White, is scheduled to be released on March 21, 2025, in theaters. The film was originally planned to be released in 2024, but it was delayed to ensure better visual effects and storytelling. The film's release date was March 22, 2024, but it was postponed to March 21, 2025. The main reason for the delay is the SAG-AFTRA actors' strike, because of which the actors could not film or promote the film as planned.


Disney also received backlash after the leak of on-set photos from the film. They denied all the allegations and said they were putting a lot of effort into making the world of Snow White feel magical and realistic. A spokesperson from Disney told The Hollywood Reporter about their take on this matter. They said, “To avoid reinforcing stereotypes from the original animated film, we are taking a different approach with these seven characters and have been consulting with members of the dwarfism community.”
