Even though Mirror, Mirror has yet to make its way into theaters, I think it is already safe to say that Snow White and the Hunstman is the Snow White film we are all really looking forward to this year (okay, I know, kids will love Mirror, Mirror). This particular retelling of the classic tale does not appear to have the light-hearted, comedic tone that Mirror, Mirror has, but rather a darker, more epic feel on the scale of The Lord of the Rings films, which I’m sure will sit much better with adult audiences.
While the first trailer set the stage for what to expect with the film, this new trailer gives us more of the story, shows off more of the acting from the main cast (Charlize Theron appears to be quite exceptional), and visually lets us know that we have no reason to expect anything less than monumental with its special effects and action sequences. It will most likely never be the next Lord of the Rings (go see The Hobbit this December for that), but it appears to have some serious potential – despite Snow White being played by Twilight’s Kristen Stewart. And hey, Thor (Chris Hemsworth) is in it! Hit the jump to watch this incredible trailer!
Official Plot Synopsis:
In the epic action-adventure “Snow White and the Huntsman,” Kristen Stewart (“Twilight”) plays the only person in the land fairer than the evil queen (Oscar® winner Charlize Theron) who is out to destroy her. But what the wicked ruler never imagined is that the young woman threatening her reign has been training in the art of war with a huntsman (Chris Hemsworth, “Thor”) who was dispatched to kill her. Sam Claflin (“Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides”) joins the cast as the prince long enchanted by Snow White’s beauty and power.
Snow White and the Huntsman, directed by Rupert Sanders, stars Kristen Stewart, Chris Hemsworth, Charlize Theron, Ian McShane, Toby Jones, Nick Frost, Ray Winstone, Sam Claflin and Bob Hoskins. It is slated to hit theaters nationwide June 1, 2012!
