Disney's Snow White Remake Struggles to Break Even After Slow Box Office Start

Author : Bella Update:Apr 10,2025

Snow White, the latest live-action adaptation from Disney directed by Marc Webb, known for The Amazing Spider-Man films, encountered a challenging start at the box office. According to Comscore, the film earned $43 million domestically during its opening weekend, marking it as the second highest debut of 2025, only surpassed by the MCU's Captain America: Brave New World. Despite topping the week's chart, Snow White fell short of the $45 million opening achieved by the live-action Dumbo in 2019 and did not meet pre-release expectations.

To put this into perspective, other Disney remakes have seen significantly stronger openings. The Lion King (2019), Beauty and the Beast (2017), The Jungle Book (2016), and The Little Mermaid (2023) all surpassed the $100 million mark in their domestic opening weekends.

Internationally, Snow White's performance was similarly subdued, pulling in $44.3 million, resulting in a global total of $87.3 million for its opening weekend, as per Comscore estimates.

This live-action rendition of Disney's 1937 animated classic features Rachel Zegler, a seasoned musical actress, in the titular role, with Gal Gadot, known for her portrayal of Wonder Woman, as the Evil Queen. With a reported production budget exceeding $250 million, Snow White faces a steep challenge to break even, particularly when factoring in marketing expenses.

However, there is a glimmer of hope for Snow White. Disney's Mufasa: The Lion King, a prequel to the 2019 Lion King remake, started with a modest $35.4 million domestic opening but ultimately grossed over $717 million worldwide. Disney is likely banking on a similar 'sleeper hit' success for Snow White, especially as questions continue to swirl around the performance of Captain America: Brave New World, which has accumulated $400.8 million globally ($192.1 million domestic and $208.7 million international) after six weekends.

IGN's review of Snow White awarded it a 7/10, commending the film for its meaningful adaptation of the original story, rather than merely replicating it.
