‘Snow White:’ Lebanon Bans Disney Remake Over Inclusion Of Israeli Actress Gal Gadot
Ahmad Hajjar, Lebanon’s Interior Minister, recommended the ban.
During an impassioned speech at the Anti-Defamation League’s summit in 2024, she said: “Never did I imagine that on the streets of the United States, and different cities around the world, we would see people not condemning Hamas, but celebrating, justifying and cheering on a massacre of Jews.” Lebanon previously banned other Gadot titles like Death On The Nile and Wonder Woman from screening in the country due to the actresses ties to Israel. Based on the famed Brothers Grimm tale, the story follows a princess who is rescued by seven dwarf miners who make Snow White part of their household after she’s exiled into a dangerous forest by her wicked stepmother.
