The animated classic Snow White is one of Disney’s next titles receiving the live-action treatment. Their new adaptation has been in production for quite some time, with Rachel Zegler set to portray the titular princess.

However, it seems as though it’s the show’s second season where things went badly. In fact, the show’s second season didn’t even make it into the Top 10 category of Netflix. For a platform that is very concerned with…
