Disney’s adaptation of the traditional fairy tale in live-action In spite of numerous negative reviews, Snow White has led the North American box office chart. According to Box Office Mojo, the film made an estimated $87.3 million (£67.5 million) worldwide on its first weekend of release. North America accounted for over half of that total.
However, it falls short of what was anticipated for a movie that cost over $270 million. Before its premiere, the 1937 feature-length animation’s revamp had appeared to be a guaranteed hit before encountering many issues.
Israeli actress Gal Gadot, who plays Snow White’s stepmother, the Evil Queen, made pro-Israeli remarks, and Zegler’s pro-Palestinian remarks also sparked criticism. Additionally, whether live or computer-generated imagery (CGI) dwarfs should have been included in the movie is still debatable.
According to EntGroup’s China Box Office website, Snow White did not place among the top five films in mainland China’s theatres. In its first three days in theatres, it made less than $1 million in a nation with a population of over 1.4 billion. Patrick Frater, a consultant to the entertainment sector, told the BBC, “I suspect that the numerous controversies have dulled the film’s appeal.
