Snow White and the Huntsman Movie

Storyline

In a twist to the fairy tale, the Huntsman ordered to take Snow White into the woods to be killed winds up becoming her protector and mentor in a quest to vanquish the Evil Queen.

As evidenced by the title, this new take on the fairy tale sees an expanded role for the Huntsman. In the original story, he is ordered to take Snow White into the woods and kill her, but instead lets her go. Here, the two are chained together for part of the movie as they make their escape.

The Huntsman is not a love interest (fear not, the prince is still in the story) but acts more as a mentor, teaching the teen girl to fight and survive.

The next year or so we will be saturated with ‘Snow White’ as this film is one of three to hit the cinema. Kirsten Stewart, who has starred in many movies but best known as Bella, in the popular ‘Twilight’ films, will be playing Snow White with Charlize Theron who has also starred in lots of films, too many to mention all of them but some are; ‘15 minutes’ (2001), Hancock (2008), ‘The Road’ (2009) and Prometheus (2012), and “The Evil Queen”. The Huntsman will be played by Chris Hemsworth who played Thor in the 2011 film ‘Thor’ and again as Thor in the film The Avengers (2012).

In this film, ‘Snow White and the Huntsman’ there is a twist to the orginal fairy story, the Huntsman becomes Snow White’s hero and companion in the fight against the Evil Queen . Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs is just one of many of the folklore stories written by the Brothers Grimm. The Grimm’s fairy tales were dark stories in character but over the years they have become more ‘child friendly’. Walt Disney is well known for taking the various fairy tales and making them into the Walt Disney classics that each new generation of children watch and love. In 1937, Snow White was the first of the Grimm ‘s fairy tales produced by Walt Disney.

It was the first Walt Disney Animated Classic feature in colour and the first animated feature made in America’s film history. The very first film of Snow White was made as a silent movie in 1902 and it was the first of many of the Grimm fairy tales to reach the big screen. The Brothers Grimm were German, their names are Jacob (1785-1863) and Wilhelm (1786-1859).

They were a couple of very interesting brothers they were academics and linguists and the book ‘Grimm’s Fairy Tales’ was a collection of folklore that they had gathered whilst doing cultural research. An interesting fact; the Brothers Grimm started compiling the very first German dictionary. Being one of the most important dictionaries, it is also known as The Grimm Dictionary finished in 1961.

Snow White and the Huntsman Movie

Director Rupert Sanders will helm Snow White and The Huntsman for Universal: it's a new take on the classic fairy tale, the script is written by Evan Daugherty. The cast includes Kristen Stewart, Charlize Theron and Chris Hemsworth. The release date of Snow White and The Huntsman is set for June 1, 2012.

In this new Snow White, its a somewhat darker twist on the legendary tale. This time around Snow White (Kristen Stewart) and the seven dwarfs, look to reclaim their destroyed kingdom. Kristen Stewart is the new Snow White…. and the evil Queen (Julia Roberts) steals control of a kingdom, and Snow White enlists the help of seven dwarfs to get back her birthright. Notice how the I said ‘dwarfs’ and not ‘little people’?

Because Hollywood is taking the word ‘dwarfs’ out of the title, so they don’t offend.. well.. dwarfs. Seems crazy. What other movie titles should we change to make sure we don’t hurt peoples feelings?

Snow White 2012 also stars Armie Hammer (The Social Network) as the object of their affection, Prince Andrew Alcott, and Nathan Lane (The Birdcage) as the hapless servant to the Queen.
Charlize Theron (The Evil Queen), Chris Hemsworth (The Huntsman) and Sam Claflin (Prince Charmant) have been confirmed, and yes.. Kristen Stewart is the new Snow White.

Mare Winningham (Brothers) as Baker Margaret, Michael Lerner (Elf) as Baron, Robert Emms (War Horse) as Renbock, and Mark Povinelli (Water for Elephants), Jordan Prentice (Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle), Danny Woodburn (Watchmen), Sebastian Saraceno (Bedtime Stories), Ronald Lee Clark (Epic Movie), Martin Klebba (Pirates of The Caribbean) and Joey Gnoffo (The Benchwarmers) as the Seven Dwarfs.

Plot:

"Based on the legendary fairy tale, 'Snow White and the Hunstman' follows the 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."

“In a twist to the fairy tale, the Huntsman (Chris Hemsworth) ordered to take Snow White (Kristen Stewart) into the woods to be killed winds up becoming her protector and mentor in a quest to vanquish the Evil Queen (Charlize Theron).”

Why is Kristen Stewart wearing an armor? Is this Snow White or Joan of Arc?
