Kristen Stewart’s role as Snow White drew skepticism almost immediately. After becoming famous for Twilight, Stewart was often criticized for her acting style, which some people saw as stiff and unemotional. Fans of the fairy tale worried she wouldn’t have the charm or elegance needed to make Snow White believable. Others thought she lacked the commanding presence required for the warrior version of the character shown in the trailers. Stewart responded with a performance that focused on strength and resilience, helping Snow White feel more like a fighter than a damsel in distress. While opinions were divided, the role pushed her career beyond the Twilight franchise.
