This musical reinvention of the Disney classic in live-action takes audiences on a magical journey back to a timeless story where we reunite with the seven dwarfs: Doc, Grumpy, Happy, Sleepy, Bashful, Sneezy, and Dopey.

With Rachel Zegler in the lead role and Gal Gadot as the Evil Queen, the rest of the cast includes Andrew Burnap as Jonathan and Martin Klebba as the dwarf Grumpy, among others.

Directed by Marc Webb (‘The Amazing Spider-Man’) and written by Erin Cressida Wilson (‘The Girl on the Train’), this new version of the original Grimm fairy tale is expected to expand on the story and music of the animated classic. Benj Pasek and Justin Paul (‘The Greatest Showman’) have penned the new songs for the film, produced by Marc Platt.

In Disney’s 1937 animated version, Snow White’s wicked stepmother decides to get rid of her because she cannot stand that the young girl’s beauty surpasses her own. However, Snow White manages to escape and seeks refuge in the cottage of the seven dwarfs. Despite this, her cruel stepmother finds her and poisons her with an apple. But the princess is not dead, only asleep, awaiting a Prince Charming to rescue her.

‘Snow White’ is just one of many Disney classics that the studio is adapting into live-action, with ‘Dumbo’, ‘Aladdin’, and ‘The Lion King’ being some examples. The list will continue to grow in the coming years with adaptations of ‘Moana’, ‘Hercules’, ‘Lilo & Stitch’, and ‘Bambi’.
