From the title of article, I thought maybe they were reshooting with new actress, but boy was I wrong. Just another horror movie, one with Rachel Z and another new Snow White horror movie, neither of which I will watch
Thanks for your story; I appreciate your preparation in carefully researching the topic you are writing about. Sadly, this is rare in current reviews. I agree that the queen’s punishment was severe, but some positive parts of the story warrant examination.
Outside of Mirabell Gardens (made famous by the Sound of Music), The Salzburg Dwarf Garden illustrates the attitude toward dwarves in the 1600s. The Pigatl Garden in Salzburg (Zwergerlgarten) depicts dwarves at some level as hideous while at the same time foreshadowing the humanizing of dwarves that you find in the Snow White tale.
Snow White, at the time, was a progressive story. The dwarves were treated respectfully and humanized in the story. This contrasts the new Disney film, where the dwarves were rendered in CGI, dehumanizing them. In effect, and very much in reality, undoing centuries of progress. In the original story, those with Dwarfism are fully human. For whatever reason, Disney did not feel real humans could be cast in the snow white movie.
Here is the thought experiment: what is worse, the 1600s parents made a story scary by saying the wicked witch danced herself to death in red hot shoes or the Disney executive that chose to dehumanize those with Dwarfism in technicolor in front of millions of children.
Here’s another “thought experiment”: If replacing live actors with CGI serves to dehumanize people with dwarfism, then was Walt Disney the first person to ever dehumanize people with dwarfism by rendering them in hand-drawn animation instead of hiring real actors to play dwarfs?
I dont like the fact they change the story but I love Syfy they should not let any child see because it will put the scare of Disney characters in them

JUST STOP! You keep suggesting that they’re getting rid of Rachel Zegler. Stop teasing us. We get our hopes up, yet there she still is! ENOUGH
