Disney’s "Snow White" reaches theaters on Friday, after having been dogged by controversies that dragged the retelling of the 1937 animated classic into the culture wars, potentially threatening its box office performance.

The live-action reimagining of the classic film has been attacked from the get-go, beginning when Rachel Zegler was cast as the iconic princess despite being of Colombian descent.

Remaking Disney’s first animated movie “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs” was always going to be controversial, but Disney’s new live-action retelling of the 1937 film may just whistle its way to box office success.
