Disney has reportedly scrapped plans for a UK premiere of its upcoming Snow White remake amid fears of an “anti-woke” backlash, following a wave of criticism over the film’s casting, creative choices, and comments made by its lead actress, Rachel Zegler.

The highly anticipated reimagining of the 1937 classic, set to hit cinemas later this month, has already sparked controversy for its decision to omit “the seven dwarves” from its title and replace them with “magical creatures” portrayed by live actors.
