Disney hosted a subdued promotional event for the live-action 'Snow White' in Segovia, Spain, amidst controversies surrounding the film. Rachel Zegler, the lead actress, and director Marc Webb attended the event at Alcázar of Segovia, a historical site tied to the original film. Gal Gadot, the Evil Queen, was absent. Due to ongoing critiques over perceived political correctness—particularly around the portrayal of dwarfs—Disney has chosen a minimal approach for the film's LA premiere, further illustrating industry tensions concerning representation and casting.
"Disney's decision to replace the fairy tale's seven dwarfs with CGI due to concerns over stereotypes has sparked criticism for being politically correct and 'woke.'"
"The March 15 premiere at the El Capitan Theatre will be a quiet, laid-back screening limited to photographers, as Disney opts for a toned-down approach to promote a controversial film."
