D23, the Disney-backed convention in Anaheim, kicked off the first day with several first-look announcements, teasers, and trailers. The first-look announcements of Snow White starring Rachel Zegler and Gal Gadot, Mufasa: The Lion King and Peter Pan and Wendy were made at D23 Expo 2022.
SNOW WHITE
West Side Story’s breakout star Rachael Zegler plays the titular character of Snow White and Tony award-winning actor Andrew Burnap starring as a new lead character. Gal Gadot takes on the role of the Evil Queen. “Snow White is the girl you remember, but she definitely is made for the modern age. There’s such an emphasis on what it means to be the fairest of them all,” said Zegler at the Expo. “For Snow White it’s about finding her voice and finding her agency so she can be a fair and just ruler.”

MUFASA: THE LION KING
Filmmaker Barry Jenkins unveiled the first look and title of Mufasa: Lion King releasing in 2024.“Mufasa was actually an orphaned cub who had to navigate the world alone by himself, and in telling this story, we get to experience the real journey of how Mufasa found his place in the circle of life,” said Jenkins at D23, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
