Fox News: Why is Snow White bombing? It's not just because of 'woke' controversies, industry experts say
Disney's live-action "Snow White" remake has been labeled a significant box office failure, grossing only $43 million in its opening weekend against a $250 million budget. Critics attribute its poor performance to a combination of bad press, perceived "wokeness," and lead actress Rachel Zegler's controversial comments.
Experts suggest that Disney should reconsider its approach to storytelling and the public behavior of its stars to avoid similar failures in the future. They emphasize the importance of appealing to conservative family audiences and maintaining a focus on the film's content rather than political distractions.
