A Break in Character

A viral split photo captures two Disney characters in an unexpected light. One person is dressed as a dwarf from “Snow White,” maintaining character with a cheerful demeanor. Next to them, someone in a Pinocchio costume holds the character’s head in their hands, breaking the illusion.

At Disney parks, cast members are generally required to keep their costumes on while in view of guests to maintain the magic and integrity of the characters. Removing parts of the costume, especially the head, in public is against park policy. This rule ensures that the enchantment remains unbroken for visitors, preserving the immersive experience Disney is famous for.
