New artwork by @GueliArt presents a fresh depiction of Zegler and Gadot's appearances as Snow White and the Evil Queen in the upcoming Disney live-action film Snow White, directed by Marc Webb. This highly anticipated film is scheduled for release on March 22, 2024.
How Live-Action Snow White Will Be Different From The Animated Film
The artist skillfully renders a digital drawing featuring Snow White and the Evil Queen standing side by side, reminiscent of a poster. Both characters are dressed in costumes inspired by the iconic animated film, but their facial features resemble those of Gadot and Zegler. The Evil Queen, portrayed by Gadot, captivates with her powerful presence, holding an apple in one hand and a staff in the other, while wearing a magnificent bejeweled crown on her head. In stark contrast, Snow White wears a worried expression as she clutches a heart-shaped pendant around her neck, gazing anxiously into the distance. The intricate frame surrounding the duo resembles a luxurious mirror, paying homage to the timeless phrase, "mirror mirror on the wall."The depiction of Gadot and Zegler as the main characters of Snow White serves as a stark contrast to the animated version, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Back in 1937, the original film showcased hand-drawn animation that resulted in Snow White and the Evil Queen appearing incredibly pale, almost to the point of being washed out. However, the live-action adaptation of Snow White will present a different aesthetic, deviating from the eerie "white as snow" appearance. The accompanying artwork provides a glimpse into this more humanized approach.
The live-action film brings about a significant alteration to its source material by changing the title. Unlike the animated film, which focuses on the seven "dwarf" characters, the new film places the spotlight on the princess herself by shortening the title. This change is not limited to just the title; in the updated version, the seven characters that were originally dwarfs are now portrayed as magical figures with regular stature.
It will be intriguing to witness the liberties that Snow White takes with its source material. Similar to the art, Snow White is likely to showcase the traditional princess attire, at least momentarily throughout the movie. Apart from that, Snow White has ample room to redefine the style from the original, which is over eight decades old.
