Reality stars and influencers attend a low-key screening of Snow White in London after the film's UK premiere was axed amid woke backlash


After bosses decided to axe plans for flashy UK premiere at Leicester Square, a select number of guests were invited to the event at the Odeon cinema.

Following a series of scandals and PR nightmares that have beset the Snow White remake, Disney have scaled back the planned lavish premieres to a 'handful' of tightly controlled press events. Reflecting on comments made on social media about her casting as Snow White, Zegler insisted she doesn't even try to wrap her head why 'Disney adults' would have a problem with someone Latina portraying the beloved princess. Disney also sparked backlash after they announced that 'magical creatures' would replace the seven dwarves to 'avoid reinforcing stereotypes' after Game of Thrones actor Peter Dinklage criticized the 'f****** backwards story' last year.
