Kristen Stewart Is A 'Fantastic' Snow White, Says Nick Frost

Posted 12/29/11 9:55 am EST by Kevin P. Sullivan in Interviews, Video

After the release of an impressive first trailer, expectations for "Snow White and the Huntsman" shot sky high. All of the sudden, a film that people knew almost nothing about aside from its star-studded cast led by Kristen Stewart and Chris Hemsworth, became one of the most anticipated movies of 2012.

But the question lingers for many fans: can Kristen Stewart carry a film that isn't "Twilight"? She didn't speak a word in the trailer, which depended largely on a perfectly evil Charlize Theron to sell the film, and potential Twi-hard backlash could sink "SWATH" before it even hits theaters.

One of Snow White's trusted dwarves, Nick Frost, assured MTV News that Stewart does more than enough to prove herself.

'Cabin In The Woods' Trailer: Joss Whedon, Chris Hemsworth Bring The Scares

Posted 12/5/11 2:46 pm EST by Kevin P. Sullivan in News, Trailers, Video

That noise you're hearing is millions of Joss Whedon fans from across the universe yelling "FINALLY!" all at once.

It has taken years for the Whedon co-written movie, "Cabin in the Woods," to finally hit screens, and after last week's teaser poster, here we have the first trailer and the most conclusive evidence yet that this movie may actually open.

Future Whedon collaborator Chris Hemsworth leads a cast of attractive 20-somethings into the familiar set-up. They're looking to go off the grid and spend some time—where else—in a cabin in the woods. With the straight-forward horror set-up, you'd be right to expect Whedon and his co-writer/director Drew Goddard to take things down unexpected paths.

'Snow White And The Huntsman' Trailer: Our Wish List

Posted 11/9/11 5:53 pm EST by Terri Schwartz in Commentary

Snow White and the Huntsman

If the "Snow White and the Huntsman" banner that was released earlier today was meant to make us amped for the teaser trailer being released tomorrow, then it definitely did a good job. The Rupert Sanders-directed action adventure film has plenty of exciting things going for it -- Kristen Stewart in a suit of armor, for one -- yet there has only been a small amount of low-key promotion going for it so far.

Sure, the film is still more than six months away from hitting theaters, but the movie is likely to be boosted to popularity thanks to the fact its trailer will probably be tacked on before every showing of "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn -- Part 1," which comes out next Friday.

The banner got us thinking about all the aspects of "Snow White and the Huntsman" we're most looking forward to, and that we hope we will see teased in tomorrow's trailer. Read on after the jump to see what you have to look forward to (hopefully) in the teaser's release.

'Snow White And The Huntsman' Poster: Kristen Stewart Gets Medieval!

Posted 11/9/11 10:50 am EST by Terri Schwartz in Posters

Based on this new art for "Snow White and the Huntsman," it looks like this flick might really be the fairest of them all.

The Kristen Stewart-led flick shows off its fantasy colors in a new banner teasing the upcoming trailer, which is hitting the web tomorrow. Sure, it's photoshopped to all hell, but the banner shows off a very "Lord of the Rings"-esque visual style, just like director Rupert Sanders promised. So what if we can only see half of all the actors' faces? Like Sanders could just give everything away all at once.

But there are plenty of nods to what fans can expect in this expansive banner for "Snow White and the Huntsman." That sword in Stewart's hand is proving that her Snow White is no Bella Swan, for sure.

'Thor' Star Chris Hemsworth Offered Lead Role In 'Snow White And The Huntsman'

Posted 5/10/11 11:14 am EST by Jocelyn Vena in Casting Call, News

FROM MTV MOVIES: Chris Hemsworth is quite the "It" boy these days. The "Thor" star has officially been offered the role of the huntsman in "Snow White and the Huntsman," co-starring Kristen Stewart as the female lead, EW.com reports.

The huntsman role had once been attached to both Viggo Mortensen and Hugh Jackman, but it seems that after the $66 million opening week "Thor" enjoyed, Hemsworth has landed as a frontrunner. Reports that Hemsworth was being eyed for the part surfaced earlier this month. Now the Australian actor signing on for the project seems to be hinged on whether or not shooting for "The Avengers" will get in the way.

Based on the legendary fairy tale, "Snow White and the Hunstman" follows the titular princess after the evil queen Ravenna calls for her death, centering on the huntsman who disobeys orders and allows the fair maiden to live. The updated story will break from convention by having the huntsman mentor and train Snow White to fight off Ravenna herself. Directed by Rupert Sanders, "Snow White and the Huntsman" is scheduled for release on December 21, 2012.
