Snow White is a Disney media franchise that began in 1937 with the theatrical release of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.
Feature films[]
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs[]
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs is a 1937 American animated film produced by Walt Disney Productions and released by RKO Radio Pictures. Based on the German fairy tale by the Brothers Grimm, it is the first full-length cel animated feature film and the first Disney animated feature film.[1]
Rose-Red[]
Disney is planning a live-action spin-off film revolving around the character Rose-Red from the story Snow-White and Rose-Red, who will be added into the plot of the Disney film. The story will take place right after Snow White eats the apple and falls into her Sleeping Death, her estranged sister, Rose Red, must undertake a dangerous quest with Grumpy and the other dwarves to find a way to break the curse and bring Snow White back to life.[2]
Live-action remake[]
In late October 2016, a live-action remake of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs was announced, with Erin Cressida Wilson in negotiations to write the script while Marc Platt will produce. The remake will expand upon the story of the 1937 film, and include new songs written by Benj Pasek and Justin Paul.[3]
Comic strip[]
A comic strip adaptation of Disney's Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs was released to coincide with the release of the film. The comic strip was written by Merril de Marris and drawn by Hank Porter, both staff at Walt Disney Pictures.[4]
The original strip ran on Sundays from December 12, 1937 to April 24, 1938 and was distributed by King Features Syndicate.[5] The sequence ran in Disney's Silly Symphony slot, as a Sunday topper for Mickey Mouse.
The strip used a number of story ideas that were ultimately abandoned in the film, including a more elaborate and comical meeting between the Prince and Snow White (in which Snow White creates a "dummy" of her dream prince, which the real Prince sneaks into), and an entire storyline in which the Evil Queen kidnaps the Prince to prevent him from saving Snow White.[6] Both of these abandoned concepts were notably recycled for use in Sleeping Beauty.
The comic was packaged and released as a comic book in 1944, 1951, 1987 and 1995 by Dell, Gold Key, Gladstone and Marvel.[7]
Direct-to-video and television films[]
