Snow White Live-Action Remake Cast & Character Guide

Snow White is the latest Disney live-action remake that is based on the 1937 animated film Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, one of the studios’ most iconic films of all time. Snow White is a musical fantasy film that sees a battle between good and evil occur as the eponymous princess is forced to leave her home after her evil stepmother attempts to kill her. While in the forest, Snow meets several allies, such as the Huntsman and the Seven Dwarfs, who help to protect her and also try to find a way to take down the Evil Queen.

Although the 1937 animated adaptation was nominated for Best Musical Score at the 10th Academy Awards, the movie’s story and characters have since come under scrutiny for lacking inclusivity and reinforcing stereotypes against minority groups. The company did take all these concerns into consideration and made sure that the Snow White cast is full of talented and diverse actors, who do an admirable job at bringing these landmark characters to life. Though it is worth mentioning that Snow White was plagued by several controversies that shaped the cast as a whole.

Rachel Zegler As Snow White

Born May 3, 2001

Active Since: 2015

Actor: While Snow White is certainly one of her biggest movies, Zegler has received critical acclaim for portraying Maria in Steven Spielberg’s West Side Story (for which she won a Golden Globe). She has also gained notoriety after she was cast as Anthea in Shazam! Fury of the Gods (a powerful тιтan and the love interest of Freddy Freeman) and as dystopian hero, Lucy Gray Baird, in The Hunger Games: A Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes.

Lucy Gray Baird

Character: The fairest of them all, Snow White has been one of Disney’s most popular princesses since Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs was released in 1937. In the 2025 live-action adaptation, Snow White is a pure-hearted and fearless princess who sets out to free her kingdom from her stepmother’s tyranny, with the help of the Seven Dwarfs. After falling into a “sleeping death,” Snow White is woken up by Jonathan’s kiss he placed upon her during his mourning.

Gal Gadot As Evil Queen

Born April 30, 1985

Active Since: 1999

Actor: Since making her acting debut in 1999, Gadot has become a global star, most notorious for playing Wonder Woman in the DCU franchise, Gisele in the Fast & Furious franchise, and rich Linnet Ridgeway in Death on the Nile. She also starred alongside Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Ryan Reynolds in Netflix’s Red Notice, the streamer’s most popular original movie of all time.

Character: Another extremely important character in Snow White is the Evil Queen. The stepmother of Snow White and the main antagonist of the movie, the Evil Queen drives much of the narrative’s conflict as her jealousy over Snow and ambition for power sees her try to kill the Disney princess. The Evil Queen is one of Disney’s most iconic villains.

Andrew Burnap As Jonathan

Born March 5, 1991

Active Since: 2014

Actor: Andrew Burnap has appeared in several movies and shows throughout his career, playing Phil in the miniseries, WeCrashed, Floyd in The Chaperone, and Joseph Smith in Hulu’s Under the Banner of Heaven.

Character: Andrew Burnap plays Jonathan in Snow White. Jonathan is a brand-new character and the love interest of Snow. He is a reluctant hero who is vastly different from the prince in the original film and the Huntsman. Jonathan is a supporter of Snow White in her battle against the Evil Queen to reclaim her land.

Snow White Seven Dwarfs Cast

Jeremy Swift as Doc: He is the intelligent leader of the Seven Dwarfs who helps provide shelter for Snow White once she flees into the forest after she learns that the queen wants her ᴅᴇᴀᴅ. He helps lead the dwarfs to help Snow White reclaim her village. Swift is most known for his Emmy-nominated role as Leslie Higgins in Ted Lᴀsso.

тιтuss Burgess as Bashful: Each member of the Seven Dwarfs has a different personality and Bashful is the shy one, who is prone to blushing and loves the idea of true love. Burgess previously voiced Sebastian in Disney’s live-action The Little Mermaid.

Andrew Barth Feldman as Dopey: Unlike the other members, Dopey doesn’t speak and only makes sounds. Despite that, it is revealed that he is actually the narrator of Snow White, making him even more unique among the group. Feldman starred alongside Jennifer Lawrence in No Hard Feelings.

Martin Klebba as Grumpy: The grouchy member of the Seven Dwarfs, Grumpy is often the pessimistic one of the group, who enjoys crossing his arms and scowling. He is sometimes at odds with other members of the group, especially Doc. Klebba portrayed Marty in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise.

Jason Kravits as Sneezy: His name is rather self-explanatory, given that Sneezy often sneezes due to having hay fever that leaves him allergic most of the time. He is also one of the more friendly dwarfs in the group, who can sometimes be a bit callous overall. Kravtis is most known as Richard Bay on The Practice.

George Salazar as Happy: No group is complete without the optimistic one, and Happy takes up that spot within the Seven Dwarfs, as he is known as the cheerful member of the group. Salazar is most known for his work on stage but he did star in Impeachment: American Crime Story.

Andy Grotelueschen as Sleepy: Perpetually tired, Sleepy often likes to take naps, seemingly unconcerned with most of what is going on around him.

Snow White Supporting Cast & Characters

Ansu Kabia as the Huntsman: The character works for the Evil Queen despite being kind-hearted and when he is ordered to find Snow White and kill her, the Huntsman refuses to do it, urging her to flee into the forest.

Patrick Page as the Magic Mirror: The Magic Mirror is an iconic character in the original Snow White and Patrick Page does an admirable job voicing him. The Evil Queen utilizes the mirror to hear the truth about herself and Snow White.

Hadley Fraser as the Good King: Though he isn’t seen much throughout the film, the Good King is the father of Snow White, and is seen mostly in the setup of the movie who sets off for war and never returns.

Lorena Andrea as the Good Queen: Much like the Good King, the Good Queen is Snow White’s mother. She falls ill and pᴀsses away at the beginning of the movie.

Dujonna Gift As Maple: Maple is the first major role for Dujonna Gift. The character is Snow White’s best friend, who has just a minor role in the film.
