Pinewood Studios Set Ablaze as Snow White Forest Fuels Fire

Disney’s live-action Snow White film production suffers significant setback…

Disney continues to suffer through a tough start to 2022.

Today, on top of Disney stock remaining below $140, and with Bob Chapek contending with the fallout from a poor political choice (and statement), one of the Disney Studios’ biggest projects suffered a major setback.

Fire at Pinewood Studios

The UK’s Daily Mail posted:

National Lottery draws were postponed this evening after a fire tore through Pinewood Studios.

Witnesses reported hearing explosions and cast members on the set of new Snow White live action movie had to rush for safety as the blaze took hold. 

Images show the inferno rampaging through the set, which appears to include a thatched cottage, as well as lights and other equipment.

A Legendary Location
