The upcoming relee of Disney’s live action remake of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, currently scheduled for March 2025, has been surrounded by controversy — so much so that the film’s trailer has received over one million dislikes on YouTube. In particular, many fans have taken umbrage with the fact that computer-generated imagery (CGI) will be used for the characters of the seven dwarfs, now renamed the “miners”, rather than having them played by dwarf actors.

Most people have heard about dwarfism and seen characters with dwarfism in fairy tales and films. However, most people have never met someone like me and thus I, and others with dwarfism, are often treated in a way which is reflective of these representations.
