probably mad they didn't offer him a role, the dwarves in snow white are not offensive, nothing about them is offensive, they just happen to be brothers who live together because they're not accepted by society and they care for Snow White in her exile, how is that offensive?

Someone tell Peter that it's a fairy tale, not a historical piece.

Why is this an issue? Lord of the rings had dwarves and it wasn\u2019t an issue. It\u2019s not furthering stereotypes about people who have dwarfism but about the mythological beings.

Dwarfs in Snow White are a race of people. Like Tolkien Dwarfs. Not a bunch of guys with dwarfism. Plus, Snow White is fantasy, a world with witchs.

Why did he take a role playing an \u2018impish\u2019 dwarf on GOT? Does he want 7 roles for people with similar conditions, who may get their one break bc of this, to get replaced with 7 average height miners?

They\u2019re portraying fairytale dwarves not him. Idk what the problem is? Get a platform and everyone is \u201cwoke\u201d about something

It\u2019s a cottage not a cave firstly. They have jobs. & hopefully for this remake. They make the group racially diverse, have the dwarves be both male and female, or give them love interests (7 men, 7 women or 4 men, 3 women).

He allowed himself to play a character that was a drunk, a womanizer, and regularly called an \u201cimp\u201dbut he draws the line at fictional dwarf roommates that work in a diamond mine and take in a homeless woman. \n\nI\u2014

I'm not sure if there's anything inherently offensive about a bunch of good hearted dudes living in the woods just doing their thing, who happen to be dwarves, unless there's something specifically about the story that is insensitive that I'm missing.

The Disney version of the Dwarves, iconic though they may be, are glorified minstrels. Works in the old cartoon, but the situation needs updating.

I love all these people angrily trying to defend Disney as though the height of Snow White's friends in any way contributed to or effected the plot at all... Absolutely nothing would change if they were just miners & not dwarves, not a single thing

A story about a 14 year old running away and being a maid to a bunch of guys and kissed without consent. That'll do great in this day and age right?

— Sparrow (@Sparrow) 1643144520

I don't think they should be making a live action Snow White remake anyway. That being said... U can't do Snow White without the 7 Dwarfs. That's like Willy Wonka without Oompa Loompas.

The number of average height people on this thread telling a person with dwarfism how he should feel about the depiction of people with dwarfism is\u2026 startling. It\u2019d be like me explaining to a black person why the crows in Dumbo aren\u2019t that racist: I wouldn\u2019t. You shouldn\u2019t.

I\u2019m an actor with dwarfism and I\u2019m glad he said something. I don\u2019t know any actors with dwarfism being asked to audition for this so I\u2019m assuming they will be CGI. Little people actors are shut out of the room all the time until Hollywood wants to do stuff like this. Sucks.
