Snow White and The Huntsman Characters Preview





UPDATED NOVEMBER 12th 2011: Added four new character posters and one banner of the upcoming movie. Images via IMP Awards.

In case you haven’t notice, in 2012 there will be two different movies that will featured Snow White as the main character. The first one is the untitled Tarsem Singh‘s project with the young Lily Collins (daughter of famed singer Phil Collins and Taylor Lautner rumoured girlfried) as Snow White, Julia Roberts as The Evil Queen, Sean Bean as The Father and The Social Network‘s Armie Hammer as The Prince. The movie is set to release on March 16th 2012 and produced by Relativity Media.

Below image is Lily Collins first preview as Snow White in Tarsem Singh‘s untitled adaptation photographed beautifully by Matthew Rolston.

The other Snow White movie that will head to head next year is the one that distributed by Universal Pictures and directed by Rupert Sanders, an acclaimed commercials director titled Snow White and The Huntsman. From the character designs below, we are assuming that the movie will be dark and having the Tim Burton-esque feeling. Interesting.

As you can see from the characters preview released recently at San Diego Comic Con, Twilight star Kristen Stewart looking very cool with an armour as Snow White while the hunky Chris Hemsworth looking perfect as The Huntsman. Academy Award winner Charlize Theron will played her part as The Queen while 25 year old Pirates of The Carribean: On Stranger Tides actor, Sam Claflin will be The Prince.

Which adaptation will you be expecting next year? We are looking forward for both of it!

P.S : Kristen Stewart is rumoured having a cover shoot for a major fashion magazine recently. The issue wil hit the newsstands near the end of the year. Promoting Breaking Dawn? Hell, yes!

In Time Teaser Posters



Justin Timberlake, Amanda Seyfried, Cillian Muphy, Vincent Kartheiser, Alex Pettyfer, Johnny Galecki, Olivia Wilde and Matthew Bomer are starring in Andrew Niccol‘s In Time that will be released on October 28th 2011. In Time presents a world where time has become the ultimate currency. You stop aging at 25, but there’s a catch: you’re genetically-engineered to live only one more year, unless you can buy your way out of it. The rich “earn” decades at a time (remaining at age 25), becoming essentially immortal, while the rest beg, borrow or steal enough hours to make it through the day. When a man from the wrong side of the tracks is falsely accused of murder, he is forced to go on the run with a beautiful hostage. Living minute to minute, the duo’s love becomes a powerful tool in their war against the system

The highlight of this movie is one of our favourite models, Sasha Pivovarova is making a cameo in the movie as Justin Timberlake‘s mother-in-law (yum!).

Another news in models-making-a-cameo-in-movies, current Jil Sander campaign face and runway regular, Daria Strokous will making an appearance in Steven Soderbergh‘s Contagion out on September 09th 2011 starring (cue drumroll, please!) Kate Winslet, Jude Law, Matt Damon, Gwyneth Paltrow and Marion Cotillard. MAJOR!
