Disney‘s first fantasy musical film of the year, ‘Snow White’, has confirmed its release on March 19th.

‘Snow White’ is a live-action adaptation of ‘Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs’, Disney’s first feature-length animation and the world‘s first full-color theatrical animation film released in 1937. It depicts the magical story of Snow White’s good heart and courage as she fights to reclaim her kingdom that was taken away by the Evil Queen.

According to Disney, ‘Snow White’ does not stop at recreating the original fairy tale, but also reinterprets it with a modern sensibility by adding a new narrative suitable for the times. If the existing story contained the image of a princess being led by fate, this movie depicts a strong Snow White who chooses her own path based on a good heart and wisely overcomes it against the evil queen (Gal Gadot) who rules the kingdom with wrong desires.

In particular, the OST ‘Waiting on a Wish’, sung by Rachel Ziegler, who won the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy, symbolically captures this changed character identity and dramatically expresses Snow White‘s inner growth.

Rachel Ziegler, who played Snow White, said, “I’m happy to share this story. ‘Snow White’ is perfect in both story and music. I want to invite the audience to this adventure soon,” adding to the excitement about the movie.
