Turning the crown jewel of Disney animated movies into a live-action movie was expected to be a guaranteed hit.
Instead,Snow White’s box officehas been a massive disappointment.
That currently makes itone of Disney’s lowest-grossing live-action remakes.
No casting was ever announced for Rapunzel, Flynn Rider, or Mother Gothel.
That’s all changed afterSnow White.
Disney has now put aTangledlive-action remake on holdindefinitely.

It’s unclear if the movie will ever see the light of day at this point.
There have been announcements for live-action versions ofHercules,Robin Hood,The Aristocrats, andBambi.
Chris Hemsworth and Daisy Edgar-Jones were even set for aPrince Charmingmovie.

kinda looks Disney is finally taking a moment to reconsider their approach with live-action remakes afterSnow White’s performance.
Audiences have not been as receptive to these movies in theaters as of late.
Most get mixed reviews that skew either slightly positive or slightly negative.
That didn’t affect Disney much when the movies were consistent box office hits.
Now that they aren’t,Snow Whitehas become the last straw.
Disney is seemingly looking to re-evalute its strategy, and pausing a likely live-action hit likeTangledillustrates that.

Lilo & StitchandMoananow could be the movies that ultimately help decide what Disney will do with their live-action remakes.
That’s all thanks to the box office potential that exists withLilo & StitchandMoanaas live-action remakes.
Lilo & Stitchis already expected to be one of the biggest movies of 2025.
It’s opening over a holiday weekend, which will help bolster its totals.
Furthermore, Lilo and Stitch are beloved characters.
The movie has also avoided thecontroversies that hurtSnow White.
But all that could go out the window afterLilo & StitchandMoana.
The likelihood ofLilo & StitchandMoanabeing major box office hits means Disney can easily shrug offSnow White’s underperformance.
It will be much easier to ignore problems when they are fresh off two potentially $1 billion hits.
They’ll want to double down and do even more, even if some more films likeSnow Whitehappen.
