Oh Dear, That Snow White Rumour Is Back
This rumour of a kung fu Snow White film has been kicking around for years. It always sounded ridiculous and when Conan mentioned it while interviewing Natalie, she totally laughed off the idea. It’s currently listed in the unlikely category in our Rumoured Projects page, but maybe I need to bump it up a bit after this new Sci-Fi Wire article.
Screenwriter Scott Moore told reporters that he and writing partner Jon Lucas wrote a draft of a Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs update called Snow and the Seven.
“It’s a retelling of Snow White in British colonial China with seven Shaolin monks,” Moore said in a group interview in Las Vegas on Sunday while promoting The Hangover.
Since the Moore/Lucas draft, new writers have been hired to tailor the script to potential star Natalie Portman.
