‘Snow White’ live-action eyes $100M opening, fans play along with a sarcastic “Uh-huh, sure”

Disney's Snow White live-action is looking towards approximately a $100 million opening box office this weekend. The estimated figure is stated to be comprising $45 to $55 million domestically and $55 million internationally. The film will be released on March 21, 2025.

The new movie features Rachel Zegler as Snow White and Gal Gadot as the Evil Queen.

Pre-sales stand at about $5 million at the moment, according to Deadline.

In comparison, Kung Fu Panda 4 opened at $57.9 million, and Dumbo came in at $45.99 million.

The movie has been involved in various controversies since it was announced. Fans are not happy with... well, anything.

Now, reports of its potential to debut with $100 million are greeted with doubts. People are convinced that the figures are exaggerated because very few people are keen on the movie.

With fans mocking the forecasts, they are confident that the opening would be way down from predictions.

Social media reacts to Snow White eyeing $100 million debut

Certain users sarcastically observed the immense gap in expectations—while filmmakers are projecting sky-high figures, the masses are forecasting much, much smaller numbers.

A user @youknowneno sarcastically noted:

"Uh-huh - sure… 😆"

Another user @Carnage2469 straight up mentioned:

"🤣really? I expect less than that."

A netizen @Upgradescomple1 predicted:

"45 million domestic opening weekend domestic. 70 million worldwide max."

Another @Leon_king70 added:

"Should be lower."

A few users skewered Disney and declared that they specialize in creating films that will eventually tank. A few others ridiculed projected numbers.

A user @TheGaAlmighty dropped the biggest roast of the century:

"Disney dropped the biggest cr*p and didn’t give us toilet paper."

Meanwhile, one person @MythicalJustJoe must've found these numbers funny, if the laughing emojis are anything to go by:

"100 million “WORLDWIDE” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂"

Fans called attention to the fact that Disney appears to be banking on word-of-mouth rumors, yet there's actually no buzz. Since Snow White has such a massive budget, fans are certain it's going to bomb.

One user @unwokentruth pointed out:

"It went up 😂😂😂 yet the screenshots of the movie theaters thus far say otherwise."

Another netizen @andrew_r_a_ said:

"Based on its budget, this movie won’t even break even. FLOP."

About Disney's Snow White

Snow White is one of Disney's most expensive ventures. As per Deadline, its production is estimated to be around $270 million.

Screen Rant reports that the film would need around $500 million globally to break even. This comes as there are substantial production and marketing costs associated with it.

The film targets family audiences, especially K-12 schools, which will be closing for spring break at the time of its release. Additionally, reviews on Rotten Tomatoes, which are yet to be released, are expected to influence the film's trajectory.

The film is a re-imagining of a 1937 animated classic and is directed by Marc Webb.

The story follows Snow White, a fearless princess determined to free her kingdom from the tyranny of her stepmother, the Evil Queen.
