Disney finally unveiled a teaser for their much-anticipated live action Snow White movie at their D23 Expo on Friday. In the trailer, actress Rachel Zegler, who is of Colombian and Polish descent, sports the iconic dress and short hairdo to embody the beloved princess. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Zegler shared how the role has been reimagined from the original 1937 film’s version for a more contemporary take:
“The cartoon was made 85 years ago, and therefore it’s extremely dated when it comes to ideas of women being in roles of power and what a woman is fit for in the world,” Zegler said. “When we came to reimagining the actual role of Snow White, it became about the ‘fairest of them all’ meaning who is the most just and who can become a fantastic leader, and the reality is Snow White has to learn a lot of lessons about coming in to her own power before she can come into power over a kingdom.”
