Snow White has been in the news quite a lot lately, thanks to the box office failure and controversy surrounding Disney’s live-action Snow White adaptation. With bad reviews, low box office returns, and a shockingly massive budget, this Snow White movie stands out as one of the biggest misfires in a while, representing all of the most frustrating elements of the current studio system. Thankfully, there are plenty of better movies involving the iconic character of Snow White, almost all of which are far better than Disney’s latest.

There’s obviously the 1937 animated film Show White and the Seven Dwarfs, which launched Walt Disney Animation Studios. Then there’s the often underrated action adaptation of the material, Snow White and the Huntsman. The 2012 adventure stars Kristen Stewart as the titular heroine, but focuses a lot more on the Evil Queen (Charlize Theron) and the Huntsman (Chris Hemsworth).



While it’s never been considered an all-time great or anything like that, Snow White and the Huntsman is a serviceable action-fantasy flick at the very least. It could certainly scratch the Snow White itch for a lot of fans, and that just got easier thanks to Peacock. Snow White and the Huntsman was one of dozens of movies that were added to Peacock’s streaming library at the start of April.

Unlike other similar genre films, Snow White and the Huntsman isn’t a movie everyone has seen, so its new availability on Peacock will bring it to a lot of movie fans for the very first time. This creates a great opportunity to see something Snow White related without feeling the pressure to go watch Disney’s new disaster.The one main difference, however, is that Snow White and the Huntsman isn’t a kids movie.

It’s not ultra violent or anything like, but it’s less accommodating for younger audiences than Disney’s live-action Snow White.[RELATED: The Most Underrated DreamWorks Movie Is Now on Peacock]What’s New on Peacock?Snow White and the Huntsman was just one of a slew of films added to the Peacock roster at the start of the month.
