5 live-action versions of ‘Snow White’

The fairy tale that tells the story of the orphan princess who has her life hunted by her stepmother, the evil Queen, and is poisoned by an apple, is titled “Snow White” and became popular after the version compiled by Brothers Grimm.

So much so, that the plot was transformed into animation exactly 87 years ago, when Disney released “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs”, an adaptation that became a classic among the studio’s titles and the first feature film from the company founded by the brothers. Walt It is Roy Disney 100 years ago.

In addition to the animations and pages, the story of the girl with snow-white skin was expanded into another format, as it received several live-action versions, where the princess was played by several real actresses.

With that in mind, RECREIO has put together a list below of 5 live-action versions of Snow White.
