Snow White Remake’s Box Office Projections Are Much Lower Than The Little Mermaid

predictions for the opening weekend of the forthcoming live-action version of “Snow White” indicate that it might not have as big a start as Disney’s previous live-action productions, according to several industry experts.

What are the Snow White remake’s box office projections?

Based on initial predictions reported by The Hollywood Reporter, it’s anticipated that the Snow White remake will debut with around $53 million in North America. However, other estimates suggest a slightly lower or higher opening, ranging from $48 million to as much as $58 million.

The earnings from Snow White’s box office debut aren’t terrible when compared to typical returns, but they might still seem relatively small for such a large-scale project. Moreover, its opening revenue is less than that of the most recent Disney adaptation of a classic animated film, which was The Little Mermaid released in 2023. Interestingly, The Little Mermaid had an initial release of $95 million, it’s worth mentioning that this debut took place over Memorial Day weekend, probably contributing to a larger audience attendance.

Snow White will be released in theaters on March 21, 2025.

In addition to Rachel Zegler and Gal Gadot, Snow White will feature Andrew Burnap as Jonathan and Martin Klebba as Grumpy in the upcoming production. Marc Webb is set to both direct and produce this project, with screenplays penned by Greta Gerwig and Erin Cressida Wilson. This adaptation aims to broaden the narrative and musical elements from the original story. The songwriting duo behind La La Land and The Greatest Showman, Benj Pasek and Justin Paul, are also on board to compose new tunes for this retelling.

The synopsis states that Disney’s Snow White is a live-action musical retelling of the 1937 film, featuring a captivating musical journey that revisits the cherished tale through characters like Bashful, Doc, Dopey, Grumpy, Happy, Sleepy, and Sneezy.

This undertaking is one of the many live-action ventures that Disney has on its horizon, which also includes Moana, Hercules, Lilo & Stitch, and Bambi in their lineup.
