Two 'Snow White' Films Race Towards Box Office
Source: THR
When multiple films on the same topic are in production (as often happens in Hollywood), it's usually a neck-and-neck race between studios to see who can finalize their cast and begin filming. Case in point: Universal's 'Snow White and the Huntsman' vs. Relativity Media's 'The Brothers Grimm: Snow White'.
Closest to the finish line is Universal's 'Snow White and the Huntsman', starring Kristen Stewart as a different kind of Snow White who trains under the Huntsman's tutelage to fight and defend herself against the Evil Queen (played by Charlize Theron). An unfortunate step backwards for the production is the breakdown in negotiations for Viggo Mortensen, who was being looked at to play the aforementioned Huntsman. Due to a key dispute over Mortensen's salary (the actor wanted a reported $8 million to star in the film), Universal has decided to move on and resume open casting once again. No word yet on possible contenders for the role.
One studio's loss is another's gain, however. Reality's 'The Brothers Grimm: Snow White' just added 'Social Network' actor Armie Hammer as the prince in a tale about a princess who bands together seven dwarves in order to reclaim her kingdom after the death of her father. Julia Roberts is slated to portray the Evil Queen in the film, which has yet to cast a Snow White.
Only time will tell which - or if both - will grace the silver screen at a theater near you.

Can't we just let Kirsten Stewart fade into the background for a while? She's flatter than the original 2d movie.

If we MUST get one of these, I choose the one that least resembles the Twilight spinoff known as Red Riding Hood. Didn't that movie bomb anyways? That should've told them "Hey, Twilighting all these old tales up AIN'T GONNA WORK!"
Viggo Mortenson, do whatever you can to keep fucking up the Kiersten Stewart project! You are the champion of the people! DO NOT FAIL US!!!

Who would even consider the idea of paying to see two separate versions of the same story. I could see the point if you had oscar worthy directors attached to both films since each film would be unique, but they both seem to be dramas that are aimed at the PG-13 crowd like Alice in Wonderland. It reminds me of any bad finale in a aweful reality competition.
