There is a moment in just about every workday when we come across something sexy, gratuitous and completely pointless that we wish we could post but don't under the auspices of there being nothing lesbian about it and often there being no redeeming value. Well, we at SheWired have made an executive decision to just throw any of our pseudo-feminist caution to the wind and to just post our favorite shot of the day, whether it be sexy, salacious, or just because…
A lot of hot hype has come out of the 2011 Comic-Con, but as the dust settles in San Diego, perhaps the most exciting movie (at least for us at SheWired) promoted was Snow White and the Huntsman.
Starring Twilight’s Kristen Stewart as a warrior Snow White and Oscar-winning film goddess Charlize Theron as a very wicked (and stunning!) Queen, the first official photos of the cast in costume were released by Universal in conjunction with their Comic-Con panel.
The stars promised this version is far from a fairy tale dream.
“I wasn’t initially jumping at the chance [to play Snow White] but she is one of the most heavy-handed, sincere [characters], seriously doesn’t let her heart cloud her mind,” Stewart told fans when asked why she was drawn to the role. “Also, I get to have a sword and stuff.”
Theron also highlighted the stark contrast to the Disney take audiences are familiar with. "Trust me, she's dark,” she promised of her Evil Queen. “I'm preparing to play a serial killer. Watch out, Kristen."
"And I'm ready for it, bitch!" Stewart shot back. "Let's go!"
The film begins shooting this August and will be in theaters 2012.
In a quirky coincidence, Lily Collins will also play Snow White in a alternative fairy tale film starring Julia Roberts as the Evil Queen. We're actually pulling for a spin-off of dueling evil queens. Charlize v. Julia!
Bring on the yummy wicked witches... There’s plenty of room for interesting, female-driven films at the box office!
