Peter Dinklage bashes Disney

[TheDieselRig]

Someone needs to remind Disney that not a single person asked for these live-action

[ariellund]

Can we just stop remaking every movie ever made….

[DownsyMB]

People don't feel represented by random changes in race of character, they feel represented by films like Moana, Raya, Encanto, Luca, coco, etc etc that are new and unique.

[ingridgdp]

I just don't understand why Disney can't just create new amazing characters instead of changing the old ones..

[Andrea.sp.]

So, I'm Hispanic and seeing a Hispanic snow white doesn't make me feel represented. Id rather have a white snow white and another princess story made up for an specific Hispanic princess.


Edit: I never had this many likes I feel famous y'all

[ezra]

Disney is honestly wack asf they literally tried to trademark the day of the dead 💀

[金カトゥラ]

This is what I’ve been trying to say for a while changing the race of a character in a movie ISNT giving representation. Creating new stories and adding diversity

[humphrey]

Snow White is like the only Disney Princess that they can’t race swap

[amberdragon]

Honestly, I feel like the best thing to do would be to make new stories with diverse characters instead of changing already existing characters

Edit: Holy crap I didn't mean to start a whole controversy, also for those who are mentioning the newer movies like Encanto and Turning Red, those are the kind of movies that are great. They don't just have diversity for the sake of it, they are representing different people and places. That's what Disney should focus on.

Snow White is named Snow White because her skin is Snow White. Like literally.

[corwinfalk]

Skin as white as snow, hair has dark as ebony, lips as red as roses. That's legit in the fairy tale itself. Come on Disney.

Dinklage complained and all the ‘little people’ that had been cast as Dwarves lost their jobs. They were pissed.

[Teddingtin]

Instead of replacing traditional Disney characters they should make new ones. I don’t know why this is so difficult for them, they’re a multi-billion dollar company…

[KristinaLopezWrites]

Solution: STOP THE REMAKES and make culturally specific movies that are amazing! As a writer with so many stories to tell, I’d be happy to write authentic storylines for Disney! ✌🏽✨

[hayden]

See, the biggest problem with this is it’s like “oh, we feel bad that you don’t have your own princess so we’ll give you one of ours” instead of just making a new princess or whatever else for a new movie

[cincinatus]

Those "offensive" dwarf movie roles put food on the table for those little people and their families. Who is he to say they shouldn't take them.

[kyragl]

I'm Mexican, and I find disgusting that they're trying to use Latin Americans as a marketing tool

[annamagee]

I don't mind the Ariel being played by a black women because her race has nothing to do with her character but come on snow white? Her skin is white as snow her hair as black as ebony

[GunnCarter]

He makes a good point excluding the fact the entire little person community has pretty much told peter to shut up

[triggerfairy]

Dude just pulled that ladder away from other short people now that he made it.
