Disney responds to Dinklage's criticism of the Seven Dwarfs

Disney responds to Dinklage’s criticism of the Seven Dwarfs

The 1.35-meter “Game of Thrones” star accused the planned “Snow White” project of hypocrisy Monday on the “WTF with Marc Maron” podcast. The studio proudly revealed that it was casting the role of a Latin actress as Snow White and showing herself as a progressive – “but then they still tell the gossip story of seven dwarves living together in a cave?” Dinklage expressed regret in the interview.

The Disney studio said Tuesday, according to the Hollywood Reporter, that they wanted to avoid reinforcing negative stereotypes about the original animation. The statement said the seven characters will be portrayed differently. They will also consult with representatives of the short stature community.
