Snow White will hit the big screen in a live-action adaptation, set to premiere on March 22, 2024. Disney put together an all-star team for the film, including Greta Gerwig, who penned the script alongside The Girl on the Train writer Erin Cressida Wilson.

Meanwhile, La La Land duo Benj Pasek and Justin Paul are working on brand new songs for the film. Gal Gadot is also set to play the Evil Queen.

“Never in a million years did I imagine that this would be a possibility for me,” Rachel said earlier this year of her role. “You don’t normally see Snow Whites that are of Latin descent. Even though Snow White is really a big deal in Spanish-speaking countries…”

“When it was announced, it was a huge thing that was trending on Twitter for days, because all of the people were angry. We need to love them in the right direction,” she added. “At the end of the day, I have a job to do that I’m really excited to do. I get to be a Latina princess.”
