When Disney executives signed off a big budget remake of Snow White and the Seven Dwarves, they probably thought it was a very safe bet for a company in dire need of a hit.

A time-honoured fairytale - beloved by millions - which spans generations, borders and creeds.

What could possibly go wrong?

Well, almost everything.

Rachel Zegler, who stars as Snow White, condemned Prince Charming as “weird” and “a stalker,” adding that she “hates” the original.

Leaked photos from the set revealed that the seven dwarves had been axed - replaced by multi-racial and gender non-specific magical humans - after Peter Dinklage said it was “backwards” to cast real dwarves as dwarves.

Disney responded to the growing controversy by delaying the movie for a year and replacing the magical humans with CGI garden gnomes.

They feature prominently in the first trailer, which dropped over the summer.

More than one million people have “disliked” it on YouTube, making it one of the most-hated previews in cinematic history.

The cherished fairytale has become a grim morality tale for meddling Hollywood hacks.

Audiences watch movies to escape the hectoring, virtue-signalling insanity of the modern world - not have it ladled down their throats
