Disney's Snow White Premiere: A Red Carpet Without Reporters
El Capitan Theater, Hollywood, USAWed Mar 12 2025
Disney is stirring up some buzz with its upcoming Snow White movie.
The company has decided to keep journalists off the red carpet for the premiere. Instead, only photographers and Disney's own interviewers will be present. This is unusual, as usually, many media outlets are invited to such events. The premiere is set for March 15 at the El Capitan Theater. Both Rachel Zegler, who plays Snow White, and Gal Gadot, who plays the Evil Queen, are expected to attend.
Disney's decision might be due to some controversies surrounding the movie. The most notable is the ongoing conflict in Palestine. Gal Gadot, being Israeli, has publicly supported Israel during recent attacks. In contrast, Rachel Zegler has shown support for Palestine. This could lead to some uncomfortable questions if journalists were present.
There are other controversies too. Some Disney fans were unhappy with Zegler's casting because she is Latina. There was also criticism over her comments about the original film's romance, saying that Prince Charming "literally stalks" Snow White. Peter Dinklage, a well-known actor with dwarfism, criticized the story for its depiction of the seven dwarfs living in a cave together. Disney responded by saying they were taking a different approach with these characters and consulting with members of the dwarfism community.
Disney's decision to keep journalists away from the premiere raises questions. Are they trying to avoid tough questions about the controversies? Or is there another reason behind this unusual move?
This isn't the first time Disney has faced criticism over its casting choices or storylines. The company has been under scrutiny for its portrayal of certain characters and its handling of sensitive issues. This premiere could have been an opportunity for Disney to address these concerns directly. But by keeping journalists away, they're missing out on a chance to clear the air and show how they're handling these issues.
