This version comes from Marc Webb, the director of 500 Days Of Summer and the Amazing Spider-Man movies – and while the focus in this trailer is largely on recreating images and moments from the ’37 original (that spooky tree looks bang-on), there’s newness incoming too. Benj Pasek and Justin Paul have penned new songs, to sit alongside classics like ‘Heigh-Ho’ and ‘Whistle While You Work’ – the latter of which is prominently featured in this teaser. The full ‘Whistle While You Work’ sequence was shown to the D23 audience.
There’s possibly never been a higher bar to cross for a Disney live-action remake – but Zegler in musical mode is unstoppable, Gal Gadot looks just right in that crown, and Webb dynamic directing style could be a strong fit for a movie-musical. We’ll see if Snow White is the fairest of them all – or a poisoned apple in disguise – when it hits cinemas in March 2025.
