After last year’s Race of the Snow White Movies, Tarsem Singh‘s Mirror Mirror will be the first to hit theaters with Snow White and the Huntsman opening two months later.  Mirror Mirror doesn’t look any good, but it will be first and that’s what’s important, at least to audiences who will think, “Didn’t we just see a Snow White movie?” when Snow White and the Huntsman rolls around.  In an interview on the set of Mirror Mirror, actor Armie Hammer (who plays Prince Charming) says he’s glad his movie is coming out first, so hooray for release schedules, I guess.  But more than a comparing their movie to Huntsman, Hammer and co-star Lily Collins (Snow White) say how much they enjoyed working together.  I continue to wait for the day when an actor does a promotional interview and says of his or her co-star “I hate that person so much.  Just thinking about him/her makes me vomit in my mouth.”  I’m going to be waiting for a while.

4 new images and 3 new set photos have been released for Snow White and the Huntsman.  The epic spin on the fairy tale re-imagines Snow White (Kristen Stewart) as a warrior trained by the Huntsman (Chris Hemsworth) to bring down the evil queen (Charlize Theron).  It’s got a good look and will probably be known as at least the “Not-terrible Snow White movie” (as opposed to Tarsem Singh‘s atrocious-looking Mirror Mirror).  Huntsman isn’t one of my most-anticipated films of 2012, but it’s definitely one I’m keeping on my radar.

Universal has been doling out images fairly regularly from their upcoming Snow White and the Huntsman, and today we’ve assembled the latest batch into one handy-dandy article for your viewing pleasure. I’m actually quite excited for this update on the classic story, as director Rupert Sanders is taking a positively epic approach to the story with some impressive visuals on display. These latest images show stars Kristen Stewart and Chris Hemsworth in the heat of battle, as well as Stewart facing down one ginormous creature. I was also impressed by the first image of the dwarves that was released recently; the visual effects used to shrink Nick Frost, Ray Winstone, Ian MacShane, etc. are quite good.

New Images from SNOW WHITE AND THE HUNTSMAN Featuring Chris Hemsworth and 8 Dwarves

by Adam Chitwood    Posted: January 30th, 2012 at 12:20 pm

As their respective release dates loom closer, the battle between the two Snow White films is heating up. A new international trailer for Tarsem Singh’s Mirror Mirror was recently released, and today Universal has released two new images from Rupert SandersSnow White and the Huntsman. One of them gives us a peek at a burly Chris Hemsworth flanked by the eight dwarves. Yes, in Snow White and the Huntsman there are eight dwarves (something to do with a rights issue), but they look like a pretty formidable band of warriors here. Sanders assembled a pretty damn impressive roster of actors to play the dwarves, including Nick Frost, Bob Hoskins, Ray Winstone, Toby Jones, Eddie Marsan, and Ian McShane.

Hit the jump to check out the images, which also include a new look at Charlize Theron as the evil Queen. I continue to be impressed by what I see from Huntsman, and I’m sincerely hoping that the full film delivers a grand, epic adventure. Snow White and the Huntsman opens June 1st.

New Images from THE HUNGER GAMES and SNOW WHITE AND THE HUNTSMAN Featuring Kristen Stewart

by Adam Chitwood    Posted: January 26th, 2012 at 12:20 pm

We’ve got a couple of images from two highly anticipated 2012 releases to share with you today. First up is a brand new image of star Kristen Stewart in this summer’s Snow White and the Huntsman. It’s a close-up, so we don’t get to see too much of her costume, but it’s enough to appease the “KStew” fans out there. I was incredibly impressed by the trailer for the film, which takes a gritty and epic Lord of the Rings-style approach to the Snow White story.

Additionally, we’ve got a new image from The Hunger Games. This is an image that we’ve actually seen before, but this is the first time it’s been released in high quality. We see Jennifer Lawrence as Katniss showcasing her red dress alongside Hunger Games host Caesar Flickman (played by Stanley Tucci). This is the only look we’ve gotten so far of Tucci in character, but judging by this picture I’d say he looks spot on. Hit the jump to check out both images. The Hunger Games hits theaters March 23rd while Snow White and the Huntsman opens June 2nd.

Collider’s 15 Most Anticipated Blockbusters of 2012

by Adam Chitwood    Posted: December 24th, 2011 at 8:37 am

As 2011 comes to a close, it’s time to look forward to the movies set to open in 2012. While many are busy compiling their Top 10 lists from 2011, we thought it’d be a good time to run down the list of our 15 most anticipated blockbusters of the coming year. Will The Avengers deliver as the culmination of four years worth of Marvel movies? Just how much of a prequel to Alien is Prometheus? Will The Dark Knight Rises be the greatest movie ever made in the history of movies and awesomeness? There are a lot of unknowns, and we’ve learned that sometimes the best behind-the-scenes talent can still make a stinker (Cowboys & Aliens), but we’re hoping for more than a few pleasant surprises (a la X-Men: First Class) to appease us in 2012. Hit the jump to check out our list.

I’m going to bypass my usual opening paragraph musings this week and simply wish everyone a Happy Veterans Day weekend. Given that I don’t have any immediate family or friends who serve, I won’t claim to know the first thing about the sacrifices that each serviceman/woman and their respective families and friends are continually asked to make. I reap all of the benefits of their service without any of the concessions. As a result, I owe a debt of gratitude to each and every one of them.

In this week’s “Top 5″ installment you can find the first trailer for Snow White and the Huntsman, a cornucopia of interviews for Immortals and Cars 2, new set images from the set of The Expendables 2 featuring Jean-Claude Van Damme, and a look at the road that led Billy Crystal and Brian Grazer to the top of the 2012 Oscars.

Yesterday, the first teaser trailer for Rupert SandersSnow White and The Huntsman arrived online, and—based on the feedback I’ve been privy to—the response has been cautiously optimistic.  The film features Chris Hemsworth (Thor), Kristen Stewart (the Twilight franchise), and Charlize Theron (the upcoming Young Adult), and from what we saw in the trailer, Sanders has put together the most action-packed take on the Snow White story ever to grace the silver screen.  But besides Hemsworth tossing around a big-ass hatchet, what can we expect from this somewhat-bizarre new take on the Snow White story?  I sat down with the film’s writer, Evan Daugherty, to get answers.  You can find out what he had to say for himself after the jump, folks.

First Trailer and 4 New Posters for SNOW WHITE AND THE HUNTSMAN Starring Kristen Stewart, Chris Hemsworth & Charlize Theron

by Collider Staff    Posted: November 10th, 2011 at 11:17 am

Universal has released the first trailer for Rupert SandersSnow White and the HuntsmanKristen Stewart plays Snow White in the fairy tale adaptation, where she trains in the art of war with a huntsman (Chris Hemsworth) to fight the evil queen (Charlize Theron).  I’m with this trailer until it Theron says…”Mirror, mirror on the wall…,” and then I started to roll my eyes.  But I’m trying to give it a chance because I like the visual style and I want to resist the urge to dismiss it just because it has “Snow White” in the title. Of course, both Snow White and the Huntsman and Tarsem Singh’s Mirror, Mirror have to contend with trying to take on a new version of Snow White when for the past seventy-five years we’ve really only known the one with the singing dwarves. But at least with Sanders’ Snow White, it looks like there’s an intriguing and exciting vision behind this new take.  Your move, Singh.

The divide between the two Snow White movies is finally starting to widen: the “light comedic adventure” version of Tarsem Sing’s Mirror, Mirror vs. the directorial debut of Rupert Sanders and his dark, gritty interpretation, Snow White and the Huntsman. Today, we have a look at some footage from the latter version. While there’s not a lot of screen time for Snow White (Kristen Stewart) or the Huntsman (Chris Hemsworth), we do get a glimpse at the dark side of the Evil Queen (Charlize Theron).

Slated to open on June 1, 2012, Snow White and the Huntsman is a twist on the classic fairy tale in which the Huntsman, appointed to kill Snow White, becomes her protector and joins her in the quest to kill the Evil Queen herself. Hit the jump to check out the footage and check back here tomorrow for the first trailer.

New Art from SNOW WHITE AND THE HUNTSMAN Features Kristen Stewart, Chris Hemsworth, and Charlize Theron

by Adam Chitwood    Posted: November 8th, 2011 at 5:40 pm

Just a few days ago, that other Snow White movie (the one directed by Tarsem Singh described as a light “comedic adventure”) finally got a title: Mirror Mirror. Now some new artwork has been released from the competing project based on the classic fairy tale, Snow White and the Huntsman. This one, directed by Rupert Sanders, is more in the vein of a Lord of the Rings-style epic, and is said to be rather dark and gritty in tone. Based on what I saw at the film’s Comic-Con panel, Sanders isn’t pulling any punches, and we’re in for quite the visual treat if his feature directorial debut will be anything close to the reel he showed us at the panel. This artwork is very much along those lines, and I think people are gonna be surprised when a trailer is eventually released.

Hit the jump to check out the image. The film stars Kristen Stewart, Chris Hemsworth, Charlize Theron, Sam Claflin, Noah Huntley, Nick Frost, Ray Winstone, Ian McShane, Bob Hoskins, Toby Jones, Eddie Marsan and Steven Graham. Snow White and the Huntsman opens June 1st, 2012.

The Snow White war is in full swing, with Universal and Relativity’s respective takes on the classic fairy tale currently in production barreling towards 2012 release dates, and today we’ve got set photos from the former. Some images have hit the web featuring Kristen Stewart in her nifty armor filming scenes for Snow White and the Huntsman. Stewart’s wardrobe looks identical to that which was unveiled with the first official images from the film, and is in keeping with the gritty, epic, and dark tone that director Rupert Sanders is striving for with his take on the material.

Hit the jump to see the images. The film also stars Chris Hemsworth, Charlize Theron, Sam Claflin, Noah Huntley, Nick Frost, Ray Winstone, Ian McShane, Bob Hoskins, Toby Jones, Eddie Marsan and Steven Graham. Snow White and the Huntsman opens June 1st, 2012.

We’ve got a couple of casting stories for you this afternoon. First up, Variety reports that Stacey Keach is the latest to join the cast of Tony Gilroy’s The Bourne Legacy. Jeremy Renner takes on the lead role as an operative trained in the same program that Matt Damon’s Jason Bourne was running from in the first three films. Keach joins previously announced Rachel Weisz, Joan Allen and Albert Finney. Edward Norton is also in talks to play the villain in the film. The Bourne Legacy opens August 3rd, 2012.

Additionally, Noah Huntley (Your Highness) is set to play King Magnus in one of eighteen Snow White projects in the works at the moment, Universal’s Snow White and the Huntsman. Producer Palek Patel broke the news on his Twitter (via Showblitz), revealing that Huntley will play White’s father. Rupert Sanders is directing, and the cast includes Kristen Stewart, Chris Hemsworth and Charlize Theron. We got our first look at the actors in their costumes a couple weeks ago, and I was onhand for the Comic-Con panel and was actually quite impressed. Snow White and the Huntsman opens June 1st, 2012.

This time last week, I was writing about how happy I was to be in San Diego, 2,000 miles away from the godless heat of the Midwest. Fast-forward to the present, and I’m happy to report that things back home have really cooled off with a heat index hovering right around a brisk 108 degrees Fahrenheit. At this rate, I should be able to check my mail without fear of sweating through my clothes any day now (baby steps, people, baby steps). Because I truly care about our readers, I’m hoping that wherever you’re reading this from is cool, comfortable, and free of any sort of sweating. Now, onto the important stuff…

In this week’s “Top 5″ installment we have an abundance of coverage for The Avengers, a video interview with the iconic Patrick Stewart, the first look at Universal’s Snow White and the Huntsman, the first trailer for director Peter Berg’s adaptation of Hasbro’s Battleship, and Matt’s cast interviews and review of Crazy, Stupid, Love.. Hit the jump for brief recaps and links to each.
