New ‘Snow White’ Trailer Sees Rachel Zegler Up Against Gal Gadot's Villainous Evil Queen

The first official trailer for the live-action Snow White film has released which stars Rachel Zegler as the titular Disney princess.

Plans for a live-action remake of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs were first discussed in October 2016 where Erin Cressida Wilson was in talks to write. A few years later, Marc Webb was announced as the director for the film in 2019. Filming ran from March 2022 to July 2022 in London with additional shooting in June 2024.

A first look at the film was released on October 27th, 2023 which saw Snow White surrounded by the Seven Dwarves. The first teaser trailer was released on August 10th, 2024 at D23. The trailer focused heavily on Snow White (Rachel Zegler) and gave us a glimpse of the performance of “Whistle While You Work”. We also saw glimpses of the Evil Queen (Gal Gadot) and Jonathan (Andrew Burnap).

Today the official trailer has been released, you can view it below:

What Happens In The ‘Snow White’ Trailer?

In the Snow White trailer Rachel Zegler dares to question how Gal Gadot’s Evil Queen rules the kingdom with little kindness. The Evil Queen talks to the Magic Mirror and asks the iconic question she’s known for, “Magic Mirror on the wall who is the fairest of them all?”

Later, Snow White flees the Evil Queen to the woods where she encounters the animals and eventually the seven dwarfs. Meanwhile The Evil Queen commands her guards to look for the missing Snow White who is asking the seven dwarfs for their help to restore the kingdom.

The closing moments of the trailer reveal the Evil Queen’s disguise as an old woman who offers Snow White a poisonous red apple. In the original animated film the poisoned apple puts Snow White into a coma that can only be broken by a true love’s kiss. Rachel Zegler has said this live-action reimagining of Snow White isn’t dreaming of true love so we’ll have to wait and see how the film will play out.

The official synopsis is as follows:

Disney’s Snow White is a live-action musical reimagining of the classic 1937 film. The magical music adventure journeys back to the timeless story with beloved characters Bashful, Doc, Dopey, Grumpy, Happy, Sleepy, and Sneezy. Disney’s Snow White is directed by Marc Webb and produced by Marc Platt and Jared LeBoff, with Callum McDougall serving as executive producer, and features all-new original songs from Benj Pasek and Justin Paul.
