Kristen Stewart's 'Snow White and the Huntsman" will not interfere with promotion for 'Breaking Dawn'


Kristen Stewart's Snow White and the Huntsman will not interfere with promotion for Breaking Dawn.

In a brilliant move by Universal, EW Reports they have moved up the release date of the film by six months! Not only does this beat rival Relativity’s Snow White (with Julia Roberts) release date by four weeks, but now production can get rolling earlier because Stewart’s availability for filming was just slightly in jeopardy.


As you Twi-Hards know, Breaking Dawn Part 1 comes out in November 18, 2011 and Kristen and Robert Pattinson will have the most promotional duties leading up to it.

Now, with Snow White‘s earlier release date, studio sources tell Celebuzz they are moving up filming at least a month to early August rather than September.

Insiders familiar with Kristen’s schedule tell us part of changing the release date was to ensure she could do the film so it wouldn’t interfere with Breaking Dawn press duties. Oh, we are also told Summit has been very accommodating as well to work around it K.Stew’s filming schedule.

Chris Hemsworth is a go for the huntsman role and he joins Charlize Theron and Sam Claflin. Sounds amazing! Snow White and the Huntsman is set for a June 1, 2012 release.

Kristen Stewart: 'Vampires are very sexy'





With the release of the final two Twilight films drawing near, Breaking Dawn beauty Kristen Stewart has opened up on her reasons for accepting the lead role, revealing she finds vampires ‘very sexy’.

Comparing vampire characters Bella and Edward to ‘forbidden fruit,’ the actress admitted she can see why the steamy script appeals.

‘Vampires are very sexy,’ K-Stew admitted to Bang Showbiz.

‘I think it's because they're meant to draw you in just to the point where they can kill you. It's like a forbidden fruit.

‘Maybe that's why I was drawn to the role of Bella in Twilight,’ she added, joking: ‘I wouldn't like to be confronted by a real vampire though, as they can read your mind!’

'Snow White and the Huntsman' gains an earlier release date - 1 June 2012


Since neither Universal Pictures nor Relativity Media are blinking about going ahead with rival Snow White films, it seemed inevitable that Universal would not be content for its film to come out six months later. So the studio has just swapped release dates of Judd Apatow's next untitled film (which was supposed to come out June 1), and has given that June 1, 2012 date to Snow White and the Huntsman. At present, Relativity Media's film, The Brothers Grimm: Snow White, is dated for June 29, 2012 with shooting to begin in August. We'll have to see whether Ryan Kavanaugh's film division reconsiders.

That Tarsem Singh-directed film stars Julia Roberts, Lily Collins, Armie Hammer and Nathan Lane. The lesson of rival films about Truman Capote and In Cold Blood echoes loudly here. Capote came out first, won an Oscar for Philip Seymour Hoffman, and nobody cared when Infamous came out later. Being the second film on the same subject is perilous and when that prospect faced Baz Luhrmann and Dino De Laurentiis on their Alexander the Great movie because Oliver Stone beat them to the start gate, the project was scrapped.

Universal's decision comes days after the studio finally set Thor star Chris Hemsworth as its Huntsman, which Deadline was the first to reveal would happen. He joins Kristen Stewart, Charlize Theron and Sam Claflin in the Rupert Sanders-directed film. Apatow (who must be strutting after Bridesmaids defied expectations last weekend) will move his film back to December, 2012 on the release calendar.

Official announcement:

UNIVERSAL CITY, CA, May 15, 2011 – Universal Pictures announced today that its epic action-adventure Snow White and the Huntsman will make a bold move into the early summer movie season with its new release date of June 1, 2012. The much anticipated film stars Twilight’s Kristen Stewart, Academy Award® winner Charlize Theron, Thor’s Chris Hemsworth and Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides’ Sam Claflin.


This breathtaking new vision of the legendary tale from Joe Roth, the producer of Alice in Wonderland, and acclaimed commercial director and state-of-the-art visualist Rupert Sanders (Halo 3 campaign) had originally been set for release in late December of next year. With adjustments to the production timeline, however, the film will now be ready for a summer 2012 release date.


In Snow White and the Huntsman, Stewart plays the only person in the land fairer than the evil queen (Theron) who is out to destroy her. But what the wicked ruler never imagined is that the one girl threatening her reign has been training in the art of war with a huntsman (Hemsworth) who was dispatched to kill her. Claflin plays the prince long enchanted by Snow White's beauty and power.


“As Rupert and Joe were finalizing casting and preproduction of Snow White and the Huntsman, we realized that the ambitious and fully-formed world they had promised was blowing away all expectations,” said Universal Chairman Adam Fogelson and Co-Chairman Donna Langley in a joint statement. “We’re thrilled that Universal will be bringing this singular version of a timeless story almost seven months earlier than anticipated.”
