Months After Stunning Losses, Rachel Zegler’s ‘Snow White’ Dropped By Disney
ITM ^ | 8/19/25 | Andrew Boardwine

Disney has always prided itself on being the studio of dreams, but sometimes those dreams turn into costly nightmares.

That’s exactly what happened with Rachel Zegler’s Snow White (2025), a film that was supposed to be a triumphant reimagining of the company’s first full-length animated classic. Instead, it became one of Disney’s most expensive failures, leaving the studio with little choice but to quietly drop the project from its future plans and much more.

They didn’t drop anything. It’s still streaming on their service. Clickbait

Kids. When I was a child I used to watch the test pattern on our black and white, 3 channel tv. They'll watch anything.

I am reminded of the old Cheech and Chong skit:

"Hey, man, what are doing?"

"I'm watching TV, man."

"Watching TV? Well, what are you watching, man?"

"I'm watching a movie about Indians, man, but it's really boring, man,:

"Ah, that's not a movie about Indians, man--it's a test pattern, man!"

"Oh. Far out, man."

Audiences want stories that respect the originals while still offering something meaningful.

We want the originals.

To counter the fallout from the "reimagining" of Snow White, Disney released Lilo & Stitch (2025) to record-breaking numbers.

Think Disney learned anything from all of this?

Doubt it.

I wish they would go broke enough to stop all of the annoying Dizzny World TV commercials.

Another enjoyable video. I smiled all the way through it. She crashed her career in the most publicly way possible. I give her two thumbs for that!

I see what you did there! Springtime for Wokeism and Disney. Winter for common sense and normality.

Someone has hacked your account!

Ageneration from now, conservative parents will complain that Hollywood is no longer making good, old-fashioned movies like last year's Snow White.

No it was doomed by the casting and the script long before she ran her mouth. She just made sure to make it an even bigger bomb than it would have been.

Snow White is white (skin as white as snow) Zegler was a bad choice

The evil Queen is supposed to be less beautiful than Snow White. They hired Gal Gadot, who is more beautiful than Zegler.

They cancelled the dwarves for enchanted folk and then had to back track and used horrible animated dwarves because they feared getting bad press for hiring actual dwarves.

The script was even more girl power than what was finally released and it was trash.

No, this film was doomed to fail from the minute they started.

Are you still trying to equate Libertarianism with Conservatism?

One of the best responses to Snow White: The Children's Literature Podcast review of Snow White. "It was dreadful. Like and subscribe.". Also check out her review of The Rainbow Fish, a k a. Baby's first body horror.
