Will Vin Diesel be returning as one of the big honkies?

I assume Sarah Jessica Parker is playing the horse, Taylor Swift as one of the rodents. Just not sure on the deer or the bird casting.

Disney says ‘politically correct’ Snow White set photos being shared by conservatives are misleading

In a statement to The Independent, a Disney spokesperson clarified: “The images that ran [in the Daily Mail] are not official film photos. These show stand-ins for some talent and do not feature Rachel Zegler or Andrew Burnap.”

Peter Dinklage says 'Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs' live-action remake is 'backwards'

"Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" is getting a live-action remake, but Emmy winning actor Peter Dinklage isn't sure it should.

“Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs” is getting a live-action remake, but Emmy winning actor Peter Dinklage isn’t sure it should.

Disney announced that “West Side Story” actress Rachel Zegler will star as the princess in the remake of the 1937 animated film. Gal Gadot will play the Evil Queen. Dinklage thinks the story shouldn’t be remade at all if it’s not updated.

The “Game of Thrones” star appeared on Marc Maron’s “WTF” podcast Monday and raised some questions about revisiting the 85-year-old film at this time.

“I was a little taken aback when they were very proud to cast a Latina actress as Snow White. You’re still telling the story of ‘Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.’ Take a step back and look at what you’re doing there. It makes no sense to me,” he told Maron. “You’re progressive in one way and you’re still making that f—ing backwards story about seven dwarfs living in a cave together, what the f— are you doing man? Have I done nothing to advance the cause from my soapbox? I guess I’m not loud enough.”

The original “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs,” the first full length animated feature from Disney, can still be told says Dinklage, it just needs to be updated to today’s standards.

“If you tell the story of ‘Snow White’ with the most f—ed up, progressive spin on it? Let’s do it. All in,” he told Maron.

Disney responded to the actor’s comments in a statement to The Hollywood Reporter, saying the film intends to take “a different approach with these seven characters” in order “to avoid reinforcing stereotypes from the original animated film.”

The company added that they “have been consulting with members of the dwarfism community” during the film’s “lengthy development period.”

More will be shared about the film as it begins production, the statement added.

Yeah pretty much.

And if we're doing "the first Disney princess who is Latina", how about creating an actual Latina character instead of just co-opting a German woman and casting a brown person to play her?

An actual Latina princess whose story reflects that (Aztec is a good idea) would be A) More interesting, B) Something new, and C) Not turn people off because they're wondering WTF you're doing.

I just don't get it. They could be actual-progressive AND make something people would like, but instead they always go this other route of "un-whitening" an existing property and it just turns people off over and over. I just...don't...get it.

Progressivism is communism. Just read about the Chinese Cultural Revolution.

We're destroying our four olds.

it'd be kindof hilarious if Dreamworks dropped a Live action, "the Road to El Dorado"

And wonder if Disney will hit up Emperor's new groove.. which doesn't have a female protag or companion.

Meh, this already happened. They need to step it up.

And there it is, already blaming conservatives, maybe even right wing Trump voters for why this film is about to fail.

They already know it's shit. Wait til Blade eventually gets remade. All those people who thought Wesley was fucking awesome will transform into giant klansmen when the new guy sucks.
