The trailer of the new Disney movie adaptation has caused a strong reaction from the Internet community.
In recent years, Disney has been actively creating game versions of its animated hits. However, the production of «Snow White» was accompanied by numerous difficulties. The negative reaction to the trailer only intensified the discussions around the movie.
Criticism of the film began long before the trailer was released. The main reason is — contradictory statements Rachel Zegler, the lead actress. Her comments were seen as disrespectful to the original work. Viewers also expressed dissatisfaction with the casting of actors for the roles of the Seven Dwarfs — the studio invited performers without achondroplasia (a genetic disease whose main feature is dwarfism).

Prince: “Actually, I just wanted to ask if your stepmother is home.”». - «They finally did it. They have created a movie that no one will pirate».
- «What’s the point of making a fiction version of an animated movie if you’re animating half the characters anyway?»
