Current Hollywood hot property Chris Hemsworth is apprently in talks to join the other SNOW WHITE project, the Rupert Sander helmed (not the Tarsem Singh directed), SNOW WHITE AND THE HUNTSMAN for Universal Pictures. Michael Fassbender, Hugh Jackman and Joel Edgerton have all been attached to the role that Hemsworth is up for following his past week’s success in THOR.
Kristen Stewart and Charlize Theron are already cast as Snow White and the wicked witch respectively.
The film, according to Heat Vision, is a new take on the classic fairy tale which features an expanded role for the Huntsman. In the fairy tale, he is ordered to take Snow White (Stewart) into the woods and kill her, but instead lets her go. In the new take, the Huntsman is not a love interest but acts more as a mentor, teaching Snow White to fight and survive.
Sam Claflin plays the prince and romantic interest of Snow White.
The film has a release date set for December 21st, 2012.
