If disney wants a modernized update that "fixes" the "problems" of the original (there were none) then they should use German cast and crew.

Rachel Zegler's Snow White Casting Backlash Got So Bad That People Started Showing Up To Her Apartment
It's inexcusable to stalk and harass somebody so that must stop but it's not racism for all of us
What we don't like is why she was cast, her attitude and the fact she clearly hates or hasn't even seen the original. I don't care what skin color the actress has, but i don't like that a non white actress was cast specifically as a publicity stunt as Rachel isn't a good fit for the role.
Snow white in the original was kind, sweet, optimistic, charming, sincere, honest, diligent, brave, forgiving, comionate, hard working, hopeful and intelligent in a world that threatened and punished her for being so. Sure she was naïve, but she was 14.
Not only is Rachel too old for the roll (as fairy tales usually feature children protagonists as thier struggles in the face of deadly fantasy is more compelling than an adult who has a better idea of what to do) but her determination to avoid the characteristics of the original make no sense. Today, staying unapologetically kind and true to themselves in a difficult world surrounded by difficult people is much more important than "being tough" or "making a statement" or "being a leader"
Also her being named for her own inner strength instead of as a loving memory to her deceased mother means she may as well be named Hulk.
