Disney’s modernized remake of “Snow White” has crashed spectacularly at the box office, igniting a firestorm of outrage among fans and critics alike. With a staggering $240 million production budget, the film managed to muster only $48 million during its opening weekend. Viewer reviews have plunged to dismal ratings, including a mere 2.4 out of 10 on IMDb and a harsh 43% on Rotten Tomatoes. The reaction has been swift and brutal, with many attributing the film’s failure to lead actress Rachel Zegler’s off-screen persona and politically charged comments.

In a move that has shocked audiences, Zegler’s version of Snow White abandons the classic love story, focusing instead on a modern narrative of empowerment and leadership. Critics argue this reimagining ᵴtriƥs away the magic of the original 1937 film. “It’s not just a flop; it’s a warning,” one commentator declared, echoing the frustration of fans who feel betrayed by Disney’s attempt to inject modern political themes into a beloved fairy tale.

The backlash has been relentless. Zegler’s controversial remarks, including her dismissal of Trump supporters, have alienated significant portions of the audience. Parents are voicing their discontent, lamenting that their 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren wanted enchanting songs, not lectures. Disney’s own numbers show a staggering 60% drop in family attendance compared to previous remakes, signaling a potential crisis for the studio.

As empty theaters echo the disappointment, insiders are speculating about possible layoffs and delays in upcoming projects. Disney’s stock has taken a dip following the premiere, with sources claiming Zegler may be quietly dropped from future roles. The magic once associated with Disney is fading fast, leaving fans to wonder: Was the fairy tale doomed the moment it became a lecture? Trust has been shattered, and the future of Disney’s classic narratives hangs in the balance.
