What was it like filming with the young Kristen Stewart, who plays Snow White?

From the moment we met there was this amazing chemistry between us. We had a great time filming that movie. I really hope people enjoy it. Kristen is only 21… I remember when I was that age. Her performance is fantastic. In fact, she’s quite the fighter.

“Kristen’s Snow White is a totally different kind of character. She's much less princess-y and more of a bad-ass girl. Her costume is leather with clamps and different stitching on it, so it’s quite different.”

Kristen Loved the Wardrobe

“When I first showed Kristen the costumes, she was really into it. She loved the armor and all the other bits that she has. She’s really not obsessed with clothes at this point in her career. She's young and free from that obsession, and in her previous work she hasn't worn those presentational costumes, so it's kind of new for her. She's still having fun with it.”

Kristen Asked to Take One Piece Home

“Snow White's under-armor jacket is a really a cute little light piece. Kristen was like, ‘Can I have this?’”

Kristen Really Becomes Snow White

“Kristen’s got a great presence as an actor. If you put a costume on somebody that really knows how to wear it, it becomes really strong!”

There's Not a Closet Big Enough to Hold Everything

“Charlize [Theron] has about 15 different variations of costumes and Kristen has about five or six. Chris basically has three looks and Sam has two. The guys have less, but more stages [from clean to battle worn]. Probably by the time we're done we've made over 2,000 costumes with all the multiples and extras in the film.”

Don't Worry, This Snow White Isn't Only Dressed for Battle

“You can't wear armor the whole movie unless you're Joan of Arc or something. It's a good mixture. She has a couple of girly dresses, plus her wedding dress that’s made with leather. There's a really beautiful skirt that goes with it and a skeletal collar that's detachable.”

Millions worldwide, including some of our brave soldiers stationed overseas, will be watching the broadcast. Many will be watching for the new commercials. Here’s a look at them:

Movie previews will be back this year, but there isn’t expected to be a Dark Knight Rises ad. Paramount bought ad time, presumably for G.I. Joe: Retaliation. Universal bought ad time, presumably for Snow White and the Huntsman. Disney bought ad time and it’s gotta be for The Avengers.

Let’s Take a Ride: Cosmopolis

Story: Taking place over 24 hours in Manhattan, Cosmopolis examines the heart and soul of the West through the story of a 28-year-old stock market millionaire (played by Robert Pattinson) who takes a drive across town in his limo to get a haircut.

Why it could be cool: The movie is being directed by the always-surprising-us David Cronenberg (Eastern Promises) and based on a novel by Don DeLillo. So if “movie about a car ride” doesn’t sound exciting just yet, consider the sources. If nothing else, it should be visually stunning and rife with compelling dialog. The film is also being scored by Howard Shore, the Oscar-winning composer behind the Lord of the Rings films.

Cautionary note: Very little is known about this adaptation yet, so even though its creators are brilliant it’s hard to anticipate exactly what they’ll create, or how enthralling it might be. —Angela Watercutter

Release date: 2012


Story: Snow White (played by Kristen Stewart) threatens the fairest-of-them-all title of an evil queen (Charlize Theron). Said queen sends a huntsman (Chris Hemsworth) to kill her, but the whole thing gets out of hand when Snow White begins training with the huntsman in the art of war.

Why it could be cool: We were admittedly skeptical about this film, but then the first trailer (above) was released and we went from "meh" to "meep!" Not only did it take Snow White out of the flow-y dresses and put her in some serious armor, it turned the whole fairy tale on its head. Screenwriter Evan Daugherty has said his guiding principle was, "What if, instead of saving Snow White, the huntsman teaches Snow White to save herself?" That alone sets the tone for a fairly intriguing revamp, but throw in Hemsworth (aka Thor) doing his hammer-swinging thing with axes instead and we're all of a sudden more ready for a new Snow White movie than we ever thought we would be.

Cautionary note: It seems unlikely, but there is a chance everything worth seeing in Snow White and the Huntsman was in that first trailer. —Angela Watercutter

Release date: June 1


On the Road, and It's About Time


Story: Don't make us trot out the dunce caps. You should probably have read On the Road well before college, so we're all scratching our heads why it took this long to transform the book into a film. David Cronenberg already made the previously unfilmable Naked Lunch, for Mugwump's sake!

Why it could be cool: Jack Kerouac's timeless novel of geographical and metaphysical liberation in a '40s stuffed with sex, drugs, jazz and cars influenced everyone from Bob Dylan and The Doors to Hunter S. Thompson's gonzo journalism. Walter Salles' On the Road film adaptation will star Tron Legacy's Garrett Hedlund and the Twilight franchise's Kristen Stewart for post-millennial fanboys and girls. Plus, Viggo Mortensen as William S. Burroughs? Sold!

Cautionary note: Stream-of-consciousness is hard to contain. That's a philosophical way of saying that On the Road's 2012 release date has not been officially confirmed.—Scott Thill

Release date: To be decided

1. The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn: Part 2
How's vampire "life" treating Bella? How's the Volturi treating the Cullens? Oh, like you haven't already read the book. The only thing you don't know is how hard it's going to be to watch the last scene of the last Twilight.
















3. Snow White and the Huntsman
Mirror Mirror, the other upcoming Snow White movie, has Julia Roberts, and that's swell, but this Snow White movie (and Kristen Stewart vehicle) has Charlize Theron, and she looks plain bad—in a very good way.

She’s enamored with a certain ebony-haired reality TV family. When told that this reporter had spent time covering the Kardashians, Theron leans back and demands details. “Really. Oh. My. God. Tell me everything. What did you do?” she asks, before precisely mimicking Kim Kardashian’s mellifluous voice. “Kourtney. Stop.”
As for her relationship with Twilight’s Kristen Stewart, who plays Snow White to Theron’s Evil Queen in next year’s lavish production of Snow White and the Huntsman? “We totally get it on. She doesn’t know it yet, but I’ve been working on some rewrites,” cracks Theron.
