As a mother and wife to dwarves, it’s ok that Show White is being portrayed by a Latina actress. The most important thing is that the dwarves are portrayed by actually dwarves.
You are so right. What would they think if
Brad Pitt was cast to play Michael Jordan in a remake of Basketball? Silly to keep changing things and people that made the movies famous to start with.
The dwarves are a magical race NOT based on little people, and it wasn’t until later that they were shrunk down to be short.
Dismissing them, and their place in the movie to a bunch of little people living in a cave, shows a clear lack of understanding of what the tale actually is. The dwarves from the Hobbit trilogy show what could be(and should be) their portrayal. Not the actor part-that should be given to little people- but the awesomeness of the race.
It seems like Mr. Dinklage has never looked into actual Dwarfish lore, nor the fairy tale, and is basing his opinions off of some scenes he saw of the original movie.(even then they lived in a cottage, so not even the full movie)
Dinklage feels threatened. He wants ALL the roles. He wants to have a monopoly and prevent any other little people from a solid opportunity. “And starring Peter Dinklage as the eighth dwarf, “Selfish!”
Dopey is one of my favorite Disney characters. I am not happy at all he is being replaced. It won’t be the same. You can add other characters but leave the 7 dwarfs alone. They are part of the Disney family.

As father to white people I think it’s ok for cartoons to take the dwarfs place and have a white person play the part of snow WHITE.

Jim,
Thank you for articulating what I was thinking. My words are not quite so “eloquent”.
So sick of all of this. Snow White should be WHITE and the Seven Dwarfs should be played by seven LITTLE PEOPLE.
Period. Glad I could settle this.

Dwarf Livelihoods Matter!

Yes, I do disagree with Peter Dinklage, because the seven dwarfs in the story of Snow ❄️🌨️ White are important.
