Theron, Mortensen, and Stewart in Talks to Join Universal's 'Snow White and the Huntsman'

Charlize Theron, Viggo Mortensen, and Kristen Stewart are all in talks to be a part of Universal's planned 2012 release of Snow White and the Huntsman.

Theron is up to play the role of the evil queen in the old Brothers Grimm fairy tale. Kristen Stewart, known by most as Bella from the Twilight series, may be the new Snow White. Viggo Mortensen just may be our huntsman. There is no word on who, if anyone, will be playing any of the seven dwarfs.

A further rumor has been suggested wherein the film may contain a shocking scene of Viggo Mortensen wrestling naked with a werewolf in an 18th century men's bathhouse. It has also been suggested that we are very, very confused.

Universal plans for the new film to hit theaters on December 21, 2012.

Do you agree that these are good choices? Have a better suggestion for any of the roles? Share your thoughts below!

Dude, Not Stewart! No No No No No!

There are any number of young actresses who would be GREAT at Snow White.

I agree that the bathhouse scene should happen.

Emily Browning would be an amazing choice for a fairy-tale girl like Snow White. Why haven't they snatched her up for something like this yet? She has the perfect innocent face.

And what in the world, why are they remaking all of these fairy tales? Is this the new 'vampire' trend on the way? Instead of a million Twlight ripoffs, we're going to get a huge influx of Grimm-based films? Not saying they'll be bad or anything, but damn, Hollywood, get some variety.

Hopefully, this means the rape/revenge trend is on the way out.

"Theron is up to play the role of the evil queen in the old Brothers Grimm fairy tale." For the record, this is the first I've heard of this. I have no plans to take this role.

You know I don't know if that will make sense or not, but if Viggo is naked that wouldn't' be bad to watch lol

As for Kristen ugh I mean she was actually a decent Joan Jett in the Runaways I will say that. But she really doesn't do anything for the genre and especially it's media overkill with her and I'm tired of hearing about her. Why don't they get Rachel Evan Wood? She is good I like her.

That's disappointing. You would have made an awesome Snow White.

As long as the werewolf is naked as well. Hey, you've got to be fair. :bigsmile:

Don't be so down on Kristen Stewart.

This movie may give her the opportunity to try another facial expression.

You're sweet. I was up for the evil queen. Are you saying I can play younger?

Of course, performance capture is a pretty amazing technique as well. I don't know if you've seen Tron but I thought the younger Jeff Bridges was pretty convincing.

I'm sorry I think you're all wrong for evil. That part should be played by Tilda Swinton.

Theron (Charlize, lol) will be a great Queen. I think she has matured so much as an actress since her days in Mighty Joe Awful. Who watched her be funny in Arrested Development? She was fucking great, playing a hot retard. She's got great comedic timing, and comedic timing is an indication of an ability to be severely distrubing as an actor (think Robin Williams, Jim Carrey, Adam Sandler, and anyone else playing "evil" when they usually play "funny" - they always excel).

Viggo is also a great choice for anything involving a man wearing some kind of leather jerkin. He looks great in a leather jerkin.

Evan Rachel Wood would be a good Snow White - she has a tinge of evil in her that I think would play nicely. She has way more personality than Stewart.

I'm curious, though - is this story just going to be "snow white"? or will they rewrite it like Hardwicke did with Red Riding Hood?

Went to the movies last night and saw a "Beastly" poster - almost threw up in my own mouth a little.

I think she's a great actress. She has proven her worth and excelled in every genre. Plus, she's easy on the eyes. (Well, she is.) And if we got married and used her last name, I'd be Theron Theron!

As long as Viggo doesn't wear a leather merkin, I'm cool. Your mileage may vary.

I was always a tad iffy on Evan Rachel Wood, but she's wicked good playing bad on True Blood. I like Stewart okay, but Wood's a way better choice, though she might be too old now.

Showing personality would betray her mystery, and being mysterious is how she makes "living art".

Excuse me, I have to drop my beret off at the cleaners.*
