Supposed photos from Disney’s impending live-action adaptation of Snow White began circulating online, creating a debate about the casting decision. Netizens chastised Disney for casting the eponymous character and the diverse cast of dwarfs.

On Friday, July 13, the Daily Mail published the alleged leaked photographs, calling the depiction of the Disney princess’ famous seven companions “politically correct.” They said the photos were taken on the film set in Bedfordshire, England.

The pictures depict an actress wearing the princess’ distinctive blue and yellow gown with a crimson cape. Along with the princess, the photographs show seven other female and male actors dressed as Snow White’s attendants.

The original cast was chosen by Disney for the live-action version in 2021, with “West Side Story” heroine Rachel Zeglar playing the title character and Gal Gadot as the Evil Queen. On the other hand, the actress in the images provided by The Daily Mail bore no resemblance to Zeglar.

According to the outlet, the princess’ entourage appeared of various nationalities, heights, and genders. Conservatives quickly slammed the supposed set images for their “wokeness.” One user, @ada_lluch, called to boycott Disney.

Disney Responds to Rumored Set Photos From the Film

The dispute over the live-action version grew even more heated on Friday when a Disney spokesman claimed the viral photographs were false. The photos are fake and not from our production. We are currently trying to have the Daily Mail issue a correction.

When pushed to respond to Disney’s comment, the outlet claimed that the production studio confirmed the stand-ins for Zeglar and Andrew Burnap in the stolen photographs.

A Disney spokeswoman later emphasized to a different site that the images posted by The Daily Mail were not genuine photos from the film itself.

Game of Thrones star Peter Dinklage discussed the casting of Disney’s forthcoming live-action version of the German fairy tale in January 2022. He was surprised when Disney boldly cast a “Latina” as the title Snow White. He stated that the casting did not make sense to him.
