Bentkey is something like the Disney+ of American facades. It is part of the Dailywire+subscription service, which in turn integrates the famous media conglomerate of ultra -right founded by Ben Shapiro and Jeremy Boreing. Bentkey was born in October 2023 with the aim of protecting childhood from the evil ideology that apparently promotes the mainstream Hollywoodiense, and did it with the announcement of an original production for the platform that would adjust vertebrally to these principles. Your title, Snow White and The Evil Queen.
“Even if Disney continues to use Walt’s name, today he has abandoned that legacy,” Boreing said then. Dailywire+ programmed by 2024 an adaptation of Snow White In response to remake of real action that Disney had been developing for some time and whose premiere contemplated for that same year. Snow White and The Evil Queen It would be a much more faithful adaptation to the spirit of Disney and traditional stories, they assured from The reactionary mentor. But its existence did not make sense without the direct comparison with the Disney version, so when it was delayed a whole year, as of March 2025, Bentkey did the same with his film.
In all this time Dailywire+ has produced Terror on The Prairie With Gina Carano – another sleeve cut to Disney, as this actress was fired from The Mandalorian For their opinions on social networks – a comedy where a team of men disguises women to mediate in women’s sports (Lady Ballers) and several conservative drive documentaries … while nothing has been known again Snow White and The Evil Queen. Everything that has transcended her is A suspicious -looking trailer who presumes to have Brett Cooper as Snow White Actress, one of Daily Wire’s stars thanks to her program The Comments Section.
Cooper, by the way, left Daily Wire in December 2024. He has not yet said anything about Snow Whitealready this heights seems quite obvious that the film does not exist. That trailer made to the rush just wanted to promote Bentkey and shake the loving remakes in real action.
From a false film to another that struggles to exist
It all started in the usual way: Disney signed as the protagonist a racialized actress and this sets social networks. Since the remakes Of real action from animation classics of the mouse house they became a safe value in the late last decade, Disney has been making slight updates on the starting stories. Before the spectacular digital effects used to re -adapt animated works or changes in the plot itself, which has mainly moved public conversation at this time has been the profile of the new interpreters.
Decisions as the protagonist of The Little Mermaid Be black they have encountered the boycott, according to an agitation that was especially interested in the ultra -right to reinforce the alert against “lo Woke”: That straw doll that has lifted the conservative reaction and the re -election of Donald Trump and that, in reality, is nothing more than the ‘progressive neoliberalism’ that theorized Dylan Riley. That is, cosmetic relief of civil tensions through the market, reducing social justice to representation issues. For example Rachel Zegler, Colombian ancestry actress arrived from West Side Storydemonstrating that Disney is concerned about racism thanks to being the new Snow White.
The new version that turns out to be the first animated film in the entire Disney history has been preparing since the company spotted the reef: 2016, with The Jungle Book. The blockbusters of Beauty and the beast, Aladdin either The lion king They have validated the bet and, nevertheless, with Snow White We have a special case. Not so much because now a certain exhaustion in the formula –The Little Mermaid He made money, but not as much as expected – but for how his development has evidenced the contradictions of Disney’s progressive neoliberalism, also coinciding with Trump’s new legislature threatening the model and even anticipating a conservative diversion.
It is the episode that we could call “dwarf parable” and illustrates the folly to take sides with Disney. At the end of 2021 the script of Snow White It was already written – by Erin Cressida Wilson and nothing less than Greta Gerwig before doing Barbiealthough in the end only Wilson has been accredited – and Disney had signed the Marc Webb of The Amazing Spider-Man as director. Zegler defended his right to interpret Snow White and then Peter Dinklage said In a podcast that the fact that it was Latin did not make this Snow White It was more progressive.
Because? Because we kept talking about Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. A story that historically had made the actor collective suffer from Game of Thrones (People with Acondroplasia, the disorder that usually leads to dwarfism) with his cartoon, something that Dinklage rejected and moved to a fast Disney decision: to recreate with hyperrealist CGI to the dwarves of the original film. This engendered even more criticism. Dinklage was harming the work options of the group in whose name he spoke – “from the privilege of not having to accept these papers,” As Jeff Brooks pointed out-, and Disney had just left them work.
The episode became even more rocambolesco when some photos of the filming of Snow White In London showing a group of “diverse” performers: there was a person with an acting next to individuals of several ethnic groups, and Media related to Daily Wire They assured that this was the “version Woke“Of the dwarfs. They also cultivated enough hat Snow White false and the son of the director of the Snow White original, David Hand, will ensure that his father and Walt “would be stirring in his grave” because of this remake.
Once it opens Snow White We have discovered that these actors had nothing to do with the dwarves: they were only characters added to this reimagination, alternating with the digital creations that Disney had already agreed to show in the trailers.
Disney in full collapse
The parabola of the dwarves exemplifies the limits of the Disney brand as an e honestly interested study in diversity, although their ramifications go beyond the friends of Snow White. That Zegler has insisted that his character is more empowered than that of the 1937 version is not as significant as the political opinions that he has shared on social networks and that they inevitably face him who plays his stepmother, Gal Gadot.
Shortly after the result of the last American elections, Zegler lamented “Fuck Trump”. Shortly after had to apologize publiclyadvancing genuflection against the Republican Party to which 2025 leads to Disney. On the other hand, and taking care of the actress of Wonder WomanZegler has positioned himself against Gaza’s genocide while Gadot, a native of Israel, has promoted the Zionist agenda more openly than ever since the attacks of October 7. It is what caused that, before the sudden violation of the high fire in Gaza, an event prior to the premiere of Snow White With Gadot in the center outside the scene of a confrontation between pro-palestinian protesters and Pro-Israel protesters.
Snow White It’s a damn movie. But it is also another Disney product whose decisions collide with each other and blur any progressive commitment. A battered artifact as able to sign a Latin actress and add some feminist thickness to the character of the Grimm brothers as to resort to the stardom of someone who supports Israel’s crimes while leaving without work, for which they will say, to several members of a minority. Nothing surprises in this case-if there are still people, surely settled in X, wanting to continue arguing with the promoters of anti-woke neurosis-nor is it surprising that these contradictions have an effect on the images, and lead to another film of soporiferous and unfortunate makers.
In particular, Snow White suffers from what happened to remake of Dumbo by Tim Burton (2019). That is, that the argument of the film that part is reduced to a napkin, for belonging to a Disney phase (the initial one, that of the 30-40) in which it mattered more to experience with the animation than to light sophisticated narratives. While the animation suffers the conversion corresponding to a saturated and inexpressive CGI – not much worse than seen in Aladdin either Beauty and the beastbut far from Jon Favreau’s achievements with The lion king-, the problem of not having enough plot is trying to solve in Snow White In two ways.
The first is to make the movie of new songs by Benj Pasek and Justin Paul (arrived from LA LA LAND). Snow White It is a pure and hard musical that accumulates numbers everywhere while expanding the classics of the original – the Oh ho of the dwarfs turned into a strenuous presentation of each character – and cuts others – vary songs have disappeared while the most famous, My prince will comeonly one instrumental sounds – looking for its own identity in this field. Thanks to songs like Princess Problems the result is not complete Snow White respecting its classic elements.
That’s where he Snow White He has no choice but to derail with impotence, while any impetus in the webb staging is diluted within the usual amusement park of the last Disney. Snow White He wants to expand the scope of the minimum history of 37 turning the protagonist into a heroine of the town, leading with the prince and other brave ones who are not just dwarfs – in which the false “dwarfs Woke” – A revolt against an authoritarian leader. The Queen of Gadot, who is not worried about enslaving this mass reports of people as if to continue asking the mirror if he is the most beautiful in the kingdom.
The narrative development of Snow White It staggers confused between the icon and the needs of a Blockbuster Conventional, full in dissonance and anticlymax – this white allergic to passivity can no longer limit a kiss to solve the plot, but neither does it either dispense with of that kiss – that in the end translate into the usual mediocrity. What remains, in short, is what always remains of this harmful production model, although now it is accompanied by so much noise and to move a more furious rejection of the account. It makes no sense to take sides between this Snow White and the Snow White Facha, and not only because the latter does not exist but because both are only symptoms of an industry, an ideological and economic system, which is coming down.
