Snow White
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rachel_Zegler
Her mother is of Colombian descent. Zegler's maternal grandmother immigrated from Colombia to the United States in the 1960s
So, IOW, a "Snow" white Hispanic, amirite?

Oh, and the Prince has been removed, replaced with just a random somewhat male character. The actor is a renowned and outspoken gender fluid individual.

Snow White, by this time, is a tired old tale.
I wish Disney would remake the Kim possible movie instead.
The original cartoon already has cultural, racial, skin tone, and body type diversities built in, with an upbeat and humorous “girl power” vibe. It’s naturally family-friendly.
The last time Disney made a live action Kim Possible movie, it made a cheap ass kids’ straight-to-TV “movie.”
Disney should really give it the “Wonder Woman 1984” or “Black Widow” level of investment instead. Kim Possible as an idea really has that potential, probably even more because Kim Possible does not have nearly as much canonic baggage as either Marvel or DC heroine. -

Could it be even worse than we thought?
Of course.
I like how she smugly smiles that "it's no longer 1937" as she lands a knock out blow to the question. What an idiot. How much does she know from 1937... she was born in 2001, after the first Lord of the Rings came out.
I also chuckle that she's not "saved by a prince" but then goes to say she's "inspired to be a leader by [a man]" her dad".
Reminds me of the joke where a woman says she's not going to take her husband's last name in marriage, which just means she's going to keep her dad's last name.
It is remarkable Disney has not learned their Go Woke Go Broke lesson. Stop focusing on skin color. Follow MLK's dream.

"Go woke go broke" is not a thing in reality. I gave the counter example of Colin Kaepernick vs. Alex Jones before. For a more recent counter example, consider the new Barbie movie. No lack of self-proclaimed conservative commentators calling the Barbie movie "woke," yet it is thriving in the box office just fine.

Well it's "Snow White," if you want to adhere to the story as published by the Grimm brothers, her skin color is a big deal.

Once upon a time in midwinter, when the snowflakes were falling like feathers from heaven, a queen sat sewing at her window, which had a frame of black ebony wood. As she sewed she looked up at the snow and pricked her finger with her needle. Three drops of blood fell into the snow. The red on the white looked so beautiful that she thought to herself, "If only I had a child as white as snow, as red as blood, and as black as the wood in this frame."
Soon afterward she had a little daughter who was as white as snow, as red as blood, and as black as ebony wood, and therefore they called her Little Snow-White. ...She can be only white, red, and/or black. No brown or yellow.

That tweet is a total mischaracterization of that interview. Surely intentional.
The problem with all these accounts that grift off of the other tribe's stupidity is you get a situation where the demand for such stupidity exceeds the supply and they do shit like this.

People like 'End Wokeness' complain about the left being humourless, and then they post that. She's clearly kidding around.
