Disney’s Snow White BOMBS at the Box Office! 🎥💥

#RachelZegler #SnowWhite #disney #movie #hollywood #wicked #disney #marvel #captainamerica #movie Disney’s Snow White has finally arrived in theaters, but instead of a fairy-tale triumph, the film’s debut has been anything but magical. Originally projected to open with at least $50 million domestically, the live-action remake has fallen short of expectations, with estimates now settling between $45 million and $48 million for the opening weekend. The film grossed $16 million on Friday, including Thursday night previews—a number only slightly better than 2019’s Dumbo, another Disney remake that struggled at the box office.

Despite the slow start, Snow White is still expected to cross the $100 million mark worldwide by Monday. However, given its staggering budget—reported to be between $250 million and $269.4 million—the film has a long and uncertain road ahead to reach profitability. Unlike some past Disney remakes, Snow White will not face immediate competition in theaters, but strong audience retention will be crucial for its long-term success.

Critical reception has been mixed to negative. The film’s Rotten Tomatoes score has dropped to 44%, indicating a lukewarm response from critics. Audience reactions have been somewhat more favorable, with a 71% approval rating. However, Snow White has also received the worst CinemaScore rating of any Disney live-action remake to date, landing at a B+. While this is not an outright disaster, it pales in comparison to the studio’s more successful adaptations. The recent Mufasa: The Lion King, for instance, earned an A-.

Beyond the numbers, the film has generated considerable controversy due to changes made to the classic Snow White story. One of the most debated aspects has been the absence of the traditional seven dwarfs, replaced by a more diverse group of companions—a creative decision that has divided fans. Other updates to the narrative and characters have also sparked strong reactions, further fueling discussion about the film’s direction.

Meanwhile, in other box office news, Jonathan Majors’ Magazine Dreams has struggled even more, with its opening weekend earnings expected to fall below $900,000 despite playing in approximately 800 theaters.

Directed by Marc Webb and featuring original songs from Benj Pasek and Justin Paul, Snow White stars Rachel Zegler as the iconic princess and Gal Gadot as the Evil Queen. The cast also includes Andrew Burnap as Jonathan, Andrew Barth Feldman as Dopey, and several others portraying reimagined versions of the classic characters.

As the film continues its theatrical run, the question remains: Will Snow White manage to turn things around, or will it become one of Disney’s most costly missteps? Only time will tell.

Rachel Zegler appeared out of nowhere and is speedrunning ending her own acting career

[skyegroome]

They picked an incredibly unlikeable woman to be the face of their movie and then completely changed the movie that was a fan favorite. We tried to warn them, but disney apparently likes to lose money.

[timchambers]

Singers like Rachel Zegler are a dime a dozen. Next time, Disney has to hire one who isn't an insufferable narcissist

[walterbolter]

Rachel ran her mouth, & poisoned everything.

[Hanahhhooba]

Who's the fairest of them all? Well Duh, says the mirror, You are Wonder woman, one of the hottest in Holywood - not that obnoxious little shit. And that's the end of the movie.

[Martin-dxqr]

It's not because they change some things of the original that it flops, it's because they didn't respect AT ALL the original version and the horrendous communication of Rachel Zegler, and seriously changing the dwarves into 7 strange men to come back to dwarves in horrible CGI, why ?

[lastboyscout]

Disney knows where they can say thank you for that: Mr. Dinklage and Ms. Zegler ;-)

[kryptism]

Disney tried to be like Wicked, but ended up being Woked instead!😮

[EvhenKonhovalets]

Rachel Ziegler will now forever be a textbook 📕 example for how not to behave as a newly arrived actress into a major Hollywood roll:

Lesson #1: Keep your mouth shut!

Lesson #2: Keep your global & political opinions to yourself!

Lesson #3: Be thankful for the opportunity not entitled to it!

Lesson #4: Be humble not arrogant!

[BamaMike]

Another reason it sucks is because they also picked a wicked witch that’s way hotter than the princess

[legendfang]

When they change the story that people know and love, have an actress that talked $**T about the story. Yeah its going to flop.

[FrankCruzFilms]

The original Snow White was Walt’s masterpiece. If this remake can’t even break even then that says a lot. Unfortunately I don’t think the execs at Disney will get the hint. They seem hell bent on destroying the company. They’re doing a great job if that’s the goal tho!

[douglasmonroe]

Oh boy. Expected to pass the 100 million dollar mark by next week is very bold to claim. Right now, it's not off to a good start. The most I think it'll make is maybe 60 million.

Disney cringe-fest didnt go well, what a surprise.

[deanharmse]

When was it expected to be a "magical hit"? Have you been living under a rock for the last 3 years? It was expected to be a flop since the casting was announced...

[bubbleslovebird]

Why would we pay to watch a bad movie?
There is no magic in it.
When Disney made a movie he put his heart and sole into making the movie. He didn't think about money when he made it.

[robertranger]

No one expected this to do well. It would’ve done better if they just named it something else

[CM-uplv]

I don’t think it was expected to be a huge hit… who expected that? Lol

[CastroMiguel]

Amazing how life works in cycles the first Snow White helped make Disney and the last Snow White will help destroy Disney.

I'm from singapore, i have already told my children, my grandchildren never go watch this sick movie. If they go watch the movie, they don't visit me anymore.
