Kristen Stewart Being Courted for "Snow White"

 

Last month THR reported that Kristen was one of the stars "initially considered for the role of Snow White", today they're reporting "The Twilight star is on the list for the role of Snow White in Universal’s Snow White and the Huntsman...Stewart is a name that Universal has kept coming back to since acquiring the project even as it went through a series of screen tests with actresses such as Riley Keough, Felicity Jones and Alicia Vikander. Emily Browning tested this past weekend (Stewart has reached a point in her career where testing isn't required) Charlize Theron is in negotiations to play the evil queen and Viggo Mortensen has entered negotiations to play the Huntsman...Stewart is arguably one of the biggest stars in the world...this would put her in the shoes of an iconic character. The Snow White team has been making repeated overtures even as late as last week" 

THR

Deadline is also reporting: "Stewart looms large as a potential lead"

"Universal has conducted screen tests with actresses such as Riley Keough, Felicity Jones, Alicia Vikander and Emily Browning, the studio has its heart set on Stewart (with no screen test required).....The film will begin shooting this summer with a Dec. 21, 2012, release date" 

 Moviefone

"Stewart’s casting in this retelling of The Brothers Grimm story would mark her first major studio lead role outside of the Twilight franchise since it began and a departure from her less-mainstream indie fare as of late. Snow White and the Huntsman is one of three different Snow White movies in development" 
Screenrant

"...they’ve been testing various talents, but Universal is apparently to either secure the talents of a draw like Kristen Stewart or track down an unknown..they’ll have to find someone before summer, as the aim is to have the movie shooting then for a December 2012 release" 

Empire

 

"Kristen Stewart's name is at the center of rumors surrounding Snow White and the Huntsman.
Right now, the Twilight Saga actress “looms large” for the title character role, according to Deadline. Due to scheduling conflicts, Viggo Mortensen has become the most likely Huntsman, replacing Michael Fassbender.

Charlize Theron is attached to the project as the Evil Queen. Rupert Sanders is due to direct. Gossip Cop is looking into the Stewart casting rumor, but it’s still extremely early in the process, with most major pieces still in flux."
