After doing Bella Swan in phenomenal The Twilight Saga, Kristen Stewart now redefines the iconic fairytale character named Snow White in the spin off movie adaptation of character with the same name in Universal Pictures’ Snow White and the Huntsman. The action fantasy film also stars Chris Hemsworth, Sam Claflin, Ian McShane and Charlize Theron. It is set to premiere in all cinemas by June 2012 and locally distributed by Solar Entertainment.
The Snow White and the Huntsman has the same plot of the original Snow White character and upgrading the dwarves to 8 and with new names that is very much different from the story that Walt Disney and Grimms Brother did. There was a young woman named Snow White played by Stewart and has step mother who became the Queen of the land and wanted to get rid of her step daughter to become the fairest of all. This time the queen finally has a name and it was Queen Ravenna played by Cheron, making the black magic more magical in terms of visual the movie goers who will be seeing the film will expect a darker version of the fairy tale that they grew with. Adding Eric, the Huntsman played by Hemsworth, there will be twist in the love story of Snow White aside from just magical kiss that Prince William (Claflin) can give. There’s still the magical mirror but more in action and Snow White having a weapon to defend herself from the evil queen.
The breathtaking new vision of the legendary tale is from Joe Roth, the producer of Alice in Wonderland, producer Sam Mercer (The Sixth Sense) and acclaimed commercial director and state-of-the-art visualist Rupert Sanders. Snow White and the Huntsman is under Universal Pictures and to be released and distributed by United International Pictures through Solar Entertainment Corp.
