Disney’s new “Snow White” remake crashed hard at the box office, proving once again that audiences are fed up with Hollywood’s woke agenda. The movie bombed with just $43 million on opening weekend, far below expectations. Critics called it a hollow cash grab, and even Disney knew it was a disaster before it hit theaters. Families stayed away, tired of being lectured instead of entertained.
The film sparked outrage by replacing the seven dwarfs with CGI creations, snubbing real actors with dwarfism who wanted those roles. Bill Maher slammed Disney for this move, joking that “dwarfs want to work” but the company cared more about political correctness than jobs. Instead of giving opportunities, Disney erased the iconic characters, leaving fans confused and disappointed.
Rachel Zegler, who played Snow White, made things worse by trashing the original 1937 classic. She called Prince Charming a “stalker” and mocked the story as outdated. Conservatives blasted her for disrespecting Disney’s legacy while taking a paycheck to star in the remake. Her smug attitude turned off viewers, with many seeing her as an entitled activist instead of a grateful actress.
Zegler also waded into politics, attacking Trump supporters online and shouting “Free Palestine” during promotions. Her co-star Gal Gadot, an Israeli supporter, faced death threats after Zegler’s posts. Disney had to hire extra security, but the damage was done. The film became a battleground for real-world conflicts, alienating half the country and muddying the fairy tale with modern grudges.
Disney’s decision to delay the film by a year and downsize the premiere showed they knew it was a trainwreck. Instead of fixing the problems, they hid from the spotlight. Even the director admitted the movie was “exhaustingly awful,” and fans called it the “worst Disney remake ever.” The studio’s desperate attempts to pander backfired, proving that rewriting classics to fit political trends drives audiences away.
The woke tweaks didn’t stop there. Snow White was turned into a “leader” who rejects love to focus on saving society, stripping the story of its magic. Conservatives mocked the forced girlboss messaging, pointing out that nobody asked for a feminist lecture in a children’s story. The original’s charm was traded for bland slogans, leaving the film soulless and unlikable.
Behind the scenes, tensions between Zegler and Gadot simmered over their clashing political views. Gadot’s pro-Israel stance clashed with Zegler’s pro-Palestine posts, creating a toxic atmosphere. Disney’s failure to control its stars’ outbursts turned the movie into a culture war symbol, pushing families to spend their money elsewhere.
In the end, “Snow White” became a cautionary tale. Hollywood’s obsession with pushing woke messages over storytelling ruined a beloved classic. Moviegoers voted with their wallets, proving that fans want entertainment, not activism. Disney’s magic is fading fast, and this flop should be a wake-up call to ditch the politics and listen to the audience.
