The original film was released in 1937, which pioneered Disney into its animation legacy. The film had significant success and received an Honorary Oscar award in the 1939 Academy Awards. Snow White is one of many films that Disney plans to revamp into a live-action film. Here is everything we know about the upcoming movie.

Opposite Zegler, Wonder Woman star Gal Gadot is in final negotiations to play the Evil Queen, Deadline reported on Nov. 4. There was apparently a wide casting search for the villain, but “studio execs always had their eye on Gadot,” per the outlet. She was also drawn to the opportunity after big names like Angelina Jolie (Maleficent) put their own spin on iconic Disney villains.
