The first social media reactions to Snow White are starting to come in following last night's world premiere in LA, and they are quite a bit more positive than you may have been expecting.

Though we are used to seeing a lot of gushing first reactions for pretty much every movie, Disney's latest live-action remake has come in for backlash from all corners for a number of reasons. The trailers didn't exactly do much to build anticipation, either, even among those who would usually look forward to Disney fare.

Disney held a scaled back premiere for the movie with no press invited to interview the stars on the red carped, and many believe the reason comes down to supposed "controversies" surrounding lead stars Rachel Zegler and Gal Gadot.

Here's what actor Martin Klebba - who provides the voice of Grumpy - had to say about the premiere during an interview with THR.

“It really isn’t going to be a red carpet. It’s going to be at the El Capitan [Theatre], which is cool. But it’s basically going to be a pre-party, watch the movie, and that’s it. There’s not going to be this whole hoopla of, ‘Disney’s first f*cking movie they ever made.’ Because of all this controversy, they’re afraid of the blowback from different people in society.”

Whatever the case may be, the studio might end up regretting the decision not to hold a showier premiere for the movie after these responses.

We only have a few X posts for now, but we'll be sure to update as more start coming in. 

Disney’s Snow White is directed by Marc Webb, written by Erin Cressida Wilson, and produced by Marc Platt, p.g.a., and Jared LeBoff, p.g.a., with Callum McDougall serving as executive producer. The film features all-new original songs from Benj Pasek and Justin Paul and an original score composed by Jeff Morrow.

The film also stars Andrew Burnap as Jonathan, Andrew Barth Feldman as Dopey, Tituss Burgess as Bashful, Martin Klebba as Grumpy, Jason Kravits as Sneezy, George Salazar as Happy, Jeremy Swift as Doc, and Andrew Grotelueschen as Sleepy.

Snow White is scheduled to hit theaters on March 21. Do you plan on checking this one out on the big screen? Be sure to let us know in the comments section down below.

@McMurdo - I've been to one of those premieres, they give you free swag and butter you up until you have a good time no matter the quality of the film. The actual movie is very likely just as serviceable and bland as all their other remakes, not good or bad. Just movie.

Just saw Captain America Brave New World. It was movie. Couldn't remember the title just now and had to google it, but I can assure you it is movie.

@Forthas - Yes, diversify a character that's described as having skin as white as snow and then complain when someone of color gets cast with a white actor 🙄 Don't focus on good storytelling and accuracy to the lore, we need more colored people so we can pretend we're not racist.

these are some oddly written reviews. "almost got a tear and ive never cried in my life?" "Zegler is an absolute star, Gadot had beautiful gowns" "Rachel Zegler is a shining supernova in #SnowWhite, beautifully embodying the graceful"... they must not realize a supernova is a dying star lol oh twitter lol

@NonPlayerC -

"Gadot had beautiful gowns"

That normally means she wasn't very good. Though to be honest I can't think of her being particularly good in anything.
NonPlayerC
NonPlayerC - 3/16/2025, 1:49 PM
@FASELI - yeah I know. She does seem to act the same in about everything but that can be said of a lot of actors. Ive enjoyed her in some things but it all depends on how the director frames her. Again, that can be said of a lot of people
NonPlayerC
NonPlayerC - 3/16/2025, 1:55 PM
@McMurdo - nah they were trying to give a compliment about the supernova but didn't think it thru very well lol The gown comment about gadot was definitely a dig, and never cried in my life id assume they meant at a movie. we all have imbecilic moments but when you know you are writing something that a lot of people are gonna see you should definitely reread what you type. Just gave me a chuckle

Even if this is the best live action adaptation ever, the damage is already done

@bobevanz - If it was a thing whose target audience is those who spend almost their entire times online (ie 15 to 25) I'd tend to agree.

However young kids (13 or below less likely to have smart phones and even if they do likely parental controls on them and home internet access) who would be up for this kind of thing are not going to be aware of much if anything of the negative buzz around this and their parents to busy parenting to either (or care about such doom and gloom online if their child wants to see it).

Odds are however it could start low even by kids Disney standard (ie Little Mermaid live action type figures) but end up with even better legs than average for kids films (ie could pass the billion).

Non of that is a given and at one point I figured this could be lucky to end on $300M WWBO, but it is at least looking more like $600M plus now if these first reactions are anything to go on (which they may not be).

Cool , nice to see the positive responses so far!!.

I know it’s best to not take these reactions at face value too much since the critical reviews with a wider pool of people can tell a different story but I honestly hope this isn’t too far off in this case…

Not because of the movie itself which seems just fine imo amongst the mixed bag of Disney live action remakes I’ve seen but moreso because some of the idiots on this site and the internet in general need some humbling which I hope this gives them.

@TheVisionary25 - I mean of all the adaptions of Snow White I have ever seen (and been a LOT) the original Disney one for me was the worst and with their live action adaption track record (of tending to be worse most times) I had incredibly low expectations before any of the reporting on production issues and comments from the cast etc...

...but I ALWAYS hope films turn out to be good and meet or excede the expectations of those who ARE interested in a thing and theatre chains need every win they can get and never begrudge big BO even on films I dislike (cos keeps the cogs turning so they CAN still make what I DO want/like).

Positive first reactions from paid "critics" and other insiders who are given freebies and other little bribes for their reactions?
What a stunning turn of events! 😑

Well I’m sure this won’t be good news to the haters on here (imagine hating something before you see it). I’m guessing there will now be ridicule of the opinions on here from the people who haven’t seen it because God forbid some people like something they saw.
