The OTT version will have special features such as a sing-along version, bloopers, deleted scenes, and behind-the-scenes featurettes, according to Mint.
The criticism that followed the film...
While the original film has been beloved for decades, Disney's live-action remake did not achieve the anticipated box office during its theatrical release.
Along with marketing mishaps, such as criticism, controversially diverse political statements, the film was barred from achieving millions due to its creativity. The fans were upset about the CGI use on dwarfs and the costume designs.
'Snow White' OTT release

According to the ETimes review of the film, 'In its 21st century adaptation, 'Snow White' updates itself to show that a princess doesn't need a knight in shining armour but at the same time, it doesn't quite manage to sweep you off your feet.'

Pixar's Elio Set For Worst-Ever Domestic Debut With $9 Million At Box Office

Last Updated: Elio, Disney's animated film, is set for Pixar's lowest opening ever, earning $9 million from 3,750 locations, trailing Elemental's $29 million. Pixar's latest original, Elio, is on track to post the lowest opening weekend in the studio's history. According to Variety, the space-themed family adventure pulled in just $9 million from Friday and preview screenings across 3,750 locations. That's far below the $29 million debut of Elemental last year. At a $150 million production budget, Elio is now expected to finish its first weekend in third place domestically, with a modest $20–22 million range, as reported by The Hollywood Reporter. In contrast, Universal's How to Train Your Dragon live-action adaptation continues to dominate, looking at another strong weekend with roughly $35.7 million in its second run. Meanwhile, Danny Boyle's 28 Years Later topped Friday's box office charts with $14 million — including $5.8 million from Thursday previews — and is now projected to launch in the $30–31 million ballpark. Directed by Madeline Sharafian, Domee Shi, and Adrian Molina, Elio follows an 11-year-old boy who suddenly finds himself traveling through space and befriending aliens. As he explores strange planets, meets unusual lifeforms, and faces a cosmic crisis, Elio must discover what it truly means to belong and who he is meant to become. The voice cast includes Yonas Kibreab (Elio), Zoe Saldana, Remy Edgerly (as Glordon), Brandon Moon, Brad Garrett, and Jameela Jamil. Despite an 'A" grade from CinemaScore and solid critical reviews, Disney insiders have trimmed expectations to a $20–25 million opening. Here's the trailer: Last year's Elemental surprised critics and audiences alike, grossing some $500 million worldwide. Disney and Pixar are now banking on Elio to turn the tide this summer.
