Overview

• Disney's decision to use CGI for the seven dwarfs has been criticized by members of the dwarfism community, including actor Peter Dinklage, who called the approach regressive.
• Actor Martin Klebba, who voices Grumpy, defended Disney's choice, stating the studio consulted with the dwarfism community and gave him a significant opportunity as an actor.
• Rachel Zegler, who plays Snow White, faced racist backlash for her casting and criticism for calling the original 1937 film 'dated' and for her political stances.
• Gal Gadot, portraying the Evil Queen, has also been a focal point of controversy due to her public support for Israel, leading to calls for a boycott from pro-Palestinian groups.
• Disney scaled back the film's Hollywood premiere following the controversies, as the movie prepares for its March 21 theatrical release.
