Does the shape of a supernova remnant depend on the progenitor star's magnetic field?

Not really, the shape of the supernova remnant is mainly caused by the structure and biometry of the star. At the time of explosion the layers of the star expands
and high speeds which result in a supernova remnant. A good example is the crab nebula in constellation Taurus.
