    I’ve always thought this would be a great idea. Play everything 100% straight but the actors are completely miscast. Give me Terry Crews as Snow White and I’ll actually go see a movie for the first time in like 10 years

    Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs: A Terry Crews Rendition

    Scene 1: Snow White’s Introduction

    Snow White (Terry Crews) is introduced as a charismatic and strong character, loved by all animals in the forest. He’s strong but gentle, charming, and not afraid to show his emotional side. He sings to the animals with a deep, booming voice, a hilarious contrast to the original character’s high-pitched singing.

    Snow White: (singing in deep voice) “I’m wishing, (I’m wishing) for the one I love, to find me, (to find me) today…”

    Scene 2: Meeting the Huntsman

    The Queen orders the Huntsman to bring back Snow White’s heart. However, the Huntsman cannot bring himself to harm Snow White, who’s flexing his muscles and humming a cheerful tune.

    Huntsman: “I… I can’t do it. Forgive me, Snow White.”

    Snow White: (flexing) “No worries, man. Everyone has a hard time dealing with these guns.”

    Scene 3: Discovering the Cottage

    Upon discovering the dwarfs’ cottage, Snow White starts cleaning. However, instead of the delicate tidying of the original, Terry Crews’ Snow White lifts heavy furniture single-handedly and dusts with a peacock feather duster, all while maintaining a contagious cheerfulness.

    Snow White: “Well, this place needs a little muscle love. Let’s get to it!”

    Scene 4: Meeting the Dwarfs

    Snow White wins over the dwarfs with his charm and kindness. His interactions with the dwarfs are playful and endearing, unlike the traditional motherly role of the original Snow White.

    Snow White: “You guys could use some protein in your diet. What do you say, tomorrow we start the day with a proper workout and a protein shake?”

    Scene 5: The Poison Apple

    When the Queen, disguised as an old woman, offers Snow White the poisoned apple, Snow White is hesitant but doesn’t want to be rude. He takes a bite and collapses in a dramatic, comedic fashion.

    Snow White: “An apple a day keeps the doctor away, right? But just to be sure… (flexes arm)…proteins are better.”

    Scene 6: The Prince’s Kiss

    When the Prince arrives to awaken Snow White, he’s taken aback by Snow White’s size. However, he’s determined to break the spell. The moment is played for laughs, with the Prince struggling to lean over Snow White.

    Prince: “I… I’ve come to break the spell…”

    Snow White (waking up): “Did I hit the snooze button again?”

    I’m only watching if it’s 100% serious. Terry acts as he acts and the entire rest of the movie is as written in the script. Full commit, no comedic rewriting. It’s just Terry playing Snow White.

    I wonder how the evil queen would dupe Terry Fucking Crews into eating a poisoned apple. I can only imagine her failing a number of times thanks to his dancing pecs

      Here’s some others I’d be totally stoked about:

      • Eric Andre (he really needs a breakout role)
      • Leslie Jones
      • Eddie Murphy
      • RuPaul
      • Charming Taintman

      Edit: Fucking Terry Crews for both roles!

    I mean if they’re going to remake a movie, they should go out of their way to make it as different as possible. I for one would love to see the direction of a film with this casting goes.

      I’d like to see a comedy where the Snow White story is playing out but the dwarves and woodland beings all choose Terry Crews. He’s like, “Nah guys. I’m a carpenter. I think you’ve got the wrong person.”. But they aren’t hearing it and strongarm Terry into the role. The evil queen is the only other person to get it and they have to team to to fix the story.

        I’d really like to see something where there is no explanation at all. Terry Crews is just Snow White.

        Maybe Seth Rogan and a bunch of stoners are the dwarves.

        No explanation at all, just as if it were a woman playing the roll.
