Update: Worst Previews are reporting that TWILIGHT star Kristen Stewart is in line to play Snow White, rather than an unknown. Their source isn’t mentioned.
Viggo Mortensen is in talks to star in the Universal Pictures movie SNOW WHITE AND THE HUNTSMAN, playing the huntsman part. Variety reports that the film already has a release date set, for December 21st, 2012 — which could put it up against the first film in THE HOBBIT series (Mortensen has a huge role in THE LORD OF THE RINGS movies, of course).
The trade reports that in this new version of SNOW WHITE, the huntsman (who, in the original fairy tale, is supposed to kill Snow White but ends up letting her go) becomes her protector and a mentor of sorts as they try to escape from the evil queen who ordered her death.
Charlize Theron is also in talks to play the queen.
Rupert Sanders will direct the film from a script by Evan Daugherty.
Universal and the filmmakers are now looking to cast Snow White, with the role reportedly set to go to an unknown
