Poll of the Day > Disney's First HISPANIC SNOW WHITE Slams RACISTS who Hate Her!! Is She Hot???

(+) Yeah! (+)

20 y/o Rachel Zegler who was recently cast as Disney's first HISPANIC Princess in the live action Snow White movie has clapped back at RACIST CRITICS who questioned a Latina portraying a traditionally "fair" german character!!

They announced the Colombian-American actress of its remake for the classic fairytale Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs that will begin production in 2022

She is largely unknown but will soon star as Maria in Steven Spielbergs much delayed but hyped movie West Side Story out in December

This is the first hispanic actress in a disney princess role as it follows the trend where they announced R&B singer Halle Bailey as the new Ariel in the Little Mermaid

She took the news to celebrate being the first hispanic princess but fired back at haters who questioned the swap and said "Yes i am snow white and no i am not bleaching my skin for the role" after haters cried "sjw nonsense" for replacing yet another traditionally white character

The Amazing Spiderman's Marc Webb will direct the movie who said Zegler's strength, intelligence and optimism made her the right choice and has amazing vocal abilities

Zegler said it was a dream come true and posted pictures and videos of herself meeting Snow White on a trip to Walt Disney World and is proud to be representing the latinx community

She had tweeted her admiration for Halle Bailey making history as a the new Black Ariel and tells her not to let the haters and racist take this moment away from them.

Cuban-American and former Fifth Harmony singer, Camila Cabello will appear as Cinderella in Sony's live action movie later this year but will release on Amazon Prime

Is Rachel Hot?

"skin as white as snow" huh

---

I dont give a shit about any of this

just let movies come out, nobody cares

---

Eh, this is one I do kind of question. The character's name literally describes how fair-skinned she is. Race isn't particularly important to anything the character does, so nothing's particularly lost by making her non-white, but this is one case where skin colour is a significant element of the character's appearance and casting somebody that isn't white is even more clearly pandering than Disney's usual diverse casting choices are.

---

The mirror will just say "a soul as pure as snow"

Also her last name will be White

They might need to change the name. At any rate, it's just another one in these oddly racist recastings where studio heads would have been forced to resign if they'd done this to any other race.


---

So what is it? Do you guys want her to be white, or Caucasian?

Because she's bright e-damn-nough

but the problem is she isn't white?

I don't get it. What's the problem

Race or color?

You mean like all the countless times in Hollywood history roles have been whitewashed? Up until fairly recently that was way more common than the reverse.

I would be outraged about this if I gave one single dried up shit about Snow fucking White

She's not even one of the hot Disney Princesses

The thing is we already had snow white girls playing Snow White in the last decade. Kristen Stewart tried her hand. And was naturally horrible. I totally forgot about her even though I watched the Huntsman movies. It says something that she got totally overshadowed by the evil Queen (Charlize Theron) who ended up being more popular to the point she got her own spinoff movie. You also had Mirror Mirror with Julia Roberts that came out the same year as Huntsman and was somewhat better but not great. So this new "controversy" is much ado about nothing. Maybe people should be more worried about this actress being competent and the movie not turning to shite like previous attempts.

Nerds don't want good movies, they want movies that match the shitty fanfic they've written in their head

Eh

People will forget the issue of miscasting when the movie flops

It happened to Fantastic Four, Annie, Without Remorse and it'll happen to The Little Mermaid

People dont want unnecessary changes, they want the same crap over and over

I was just thinking about this recently, and how really skin color shouldn't matter any more than hair color.

maybe it's as equally stupid to cast someone because their skin as dark as it is to cast them because their skin is light, except ok, the currently trend is toward favoring light skin, so pushing back against the trend in order to equalize things, fine I guess.

in this case though, I think I would say that the problem is that the concept of Snow White is itself racist. the central theme is that she is exceptionally beautiful because her skin is white. that's ok if your personal preference is to be attracted to certain skin tones, but it's not really ok to present one skin tone as being "objectively" most beautiful.

so... I don't think I have an issue with it. maybe it's even a good thing. Ideally you should be able to cast a black person as just about any role and no one even notices. as if you were complaining because her eyes were the wrong color or something.

(ok and I'm forgetting that shes not black, but hispanic, but w/e same argument)

She should do lesbian porn

Skin color aside she just doesn't look like Snow White either.

Actually in the picture with the yellow dress she looks more like an evil queen.

Ugly Disney princesses are the second worst thing to come out of the 1930s, and thats by a very narrow margin.

Honestly it doesnt matter. It's just a actress playing the character. I think we need to push beyond the boundries of skin color. If the actor plays the character well, that's all that should matter.

White people are mad once again!

Moderate trolling effort from disney, since this girls skin is lightish brown instead of snow white, but for maximum effect it should have been black like ebenholz.
I remember watching this german snow white parody movie (animated) with a snow white that was anything but pretty. They had all the colours switched. It was a bad movie, but this disney one will probably be worse. (because it's disney, not because of the actress.)

Indeed. As much as this is a case where the character "should" be white, the fact that she "should" be white is because the story it's adapting has inherently racist beauty norms woven into the character's design. Does that mean the story should be retold with somebody that isn't white to push back against those norms? I dunno. I'd see that more as a reason to discard the original story and just do something similar under a different name, but then there's none of the brand recognition that these live-action remakes coast on, so obviously the studio won't do that. Perhaps instead it falls to the audience to realize that Snow White was never a particularly good movie and stop caring about it altogether.

What, like that time Tilda Swinton was cast as a Tibetan mystic? Or Scarlett Johansson as a Japanese cop? Whitewashing happens all the time, dude, and nobody resigns over it. This is one of the rare cases of actual reverse whitewashing (that is, changing a character that has a reason to be white to be another race, as distinct from changing the race of a character whose race doesn't matter), and it's just as silly here as the regular variety, but don't act like there are actual consequences for whitewashing.

They could use make up

I feel like the bigger concern here is that, instead of working to make the movie good, they're instead engaging in a blatant race-bait and woke-appeal.

I'm more than fine with people of different ethnic backgrounds portraying various characters. My only hang-up is when it comes to historical characters at which point I want them to be historically accurate. Tales like SW are in a bit of a hazy ground but I'm more than willing to accept some new version assuming it's well written.

But let's think here. We could have had a Snow White in Space kind of story. A clockwork version. A vampire version. A more 'modern' take (though I feel that would go over like a lead balloon no matter what you did). You could have gone in a completely new and different direction with the story and advertised that. Instead you focus on the main character being hispanic.

This movie will blow. It will be a hollow recreation that 'succeeds' only because of peoples nostalgia and people will blame racists for it's failings instead of the fact that it's basically doomed to be a brain-dead re-write.

>_>

Okay, I'm just gonna pretend that being of white descent and having white skin are non-complicatedly interchangeable concepts as well, seems easier that way.

Wait, what if they ARE that way?

WHAT IF YOU CAN ONLY BE THE RACE OF YOUR SKIN COLOR? omg i never thought of it that way

since white skin really actually does exist

...in albino people

But I have a parachute, so by the time anyone bothers to've responded, I will have already hit the topic list. Woosh.

does anyone actually give a shit about this stupid movie or just a regular damn casting decision? Theres a bunch of nonwhite actors and actresses nowadays so obviously they are gonna get some of the roles.

You cant act like Disney just wont cast white people though. Just looked at Cruella, Beauty and the Beast, and most of the MCU and Star Wars.

Stop freaking out about tabloid stories like this and the fucking mr potato head because your entire life is being bamboozled away from you by propaganda and its making you and a lot of other people act like damn clowns.

I disagree. Lion King was a wonderful take on Hamlet and other things like Tangled were great takes on classic fairy tales (many of which were fairly short on the whole). Princess and the Frog is a great example of a way to have a racially diverse cast in a traditionally-white story and have it make sense, not feel pandering, and many other good things. It CAN be done and Disney used to do it all the time.

What I mean is, all of them were changed dramatically from the original stories.

omfg where do people come up with this stupid shit

it was only a white story because the versions you saw as a kid were made when nonwhite people didnt have civil rights and didnt exactly have a great track record of getting prime acting roles

I don't know how much more 'white' you can get for a fairy tale than having it come from Germany.

That's an option, but somehow I feel like casting a Colombian-American actress and then making her up to look super-white would end really, really badly.

It isn't explicitly set in Germany (afaik), nobody's specified to be white, there are no cultural references in there that rely on the characters being white... Certainly, the characters are presumed to be white, given the origins (the same can be said of most fairy tales), but there's nothing in there that relies on that.

It's not crap. It's called tradition. You don't break tradition, dipshit. Else you get called out for it.
