3:36 We’re back for Snow White and the Huntsman! Who’s ready to see Kristen Stewart? But before that, Rupert Sanders (director), Joe Roth (producer) and Evan Daugherty (writer) hit the stage.
3:37 Rupert promises that we will get to see images from the movie and compares Huntsman to Lord of the Rings “in terms of size and scope.”
3:39 Regarding whether anyone is concerned about that other Snow White movie, Joe Roth says, “People don’t remember that Tom Hanks did the fifth body-switching movies when he did Big”
3:44 After being shown a reel of Rupert’s commercial work, the director says that he actually wanted to do a war movie but ended up with Snow White. Still, it’s “full of giant battle scenes full of exploding knights.” Rupert says that he is excited to “lose his cinematic virginity” on this project.
3:46 Finally, they are introducing cast members: Sam Claflin, Chris Hemsworth, Charlize Theron and Kristen Stewart. Wild applause!
3:47 On why Kristen wants to play Snow White: “I wasn’t initially jumping at the chance [to play Snow White] but she is one of the most heavy-handedly sincere, seriously doesn’t let her heart cloud her mind characters. Also, I get to have a sword and stuff.”
3:49 The moderator asks whether Charlize is worried about co-starring with an actress as talented as Stewart. Charlize responds, “She’s probably going to give me a run for my money. And I’m ready for it bitch. Let’s go.”
3:51 Claflin said that his parents “think that it’s a crock” that he is playing Prince Charming. “They’re all as surpised as I am, to be quite honest, to be involved in something as big as this” but warns that “the prince is not quite as charming” in this version.
3:53Wardrobe note: Charlize is wearing black and Kristen is wearing white. Was this planned? Good vs. evil, etc?
3:55 Since the cast doesn’t know each other that well, the moderator has a few questions planned so that everyone can get to know each other. Sam says that
4:00 Surprise. We see the first shot of the dwarves but there are eight of them! As Rupert introduces them, Hall H claps the loudest for Bob Hoskins. Rupert explains that there are eight because one ends up getting killed.
4:02 Next up, a photo of Claflin as Prince. Black and white, holding a sword. Sexy. As Hall H makes cat calls, Claflin says that he is very uncomfortable.
4:03 Hemsworth as the Huntsman. He is holding an ax, sexily, over his shoulder. His hair is wet and slicked back. This photo belongs on the cover of a romance novel.
4:05 Theron as the Queen is next. She is in a fitted black dress with a high feathered collar.
4:06 Kristen Stewart as the most badass Snow White ever. In this first photo, she is wearing armor! And holding a shield and sword. “My pinhead sticks out of that enormous thing.”
Theron: “Don’t worry, we’ll get you steroids. You’ll be fine.”
4:07 A fan directs a question at Stewart, fidgeting onstage. On how she relates to Snow White, Stewart jokes, “Well, I’m the fairest in the land and I have a seriously good heart.”
4:08 Theron explains how it was important for her to understand the Queen’s motivations: “I don’t think this is just the evil queen who just shows up and she is evil. I think a lot of her circumstances will bleed in her action and that’s the most important thing to me. […] My character is basically a serial killer. Watch out, Kristen.”
4:09 A fan asks what kind of music Kristen is listening to in preparation for the role. Kristen says nothing really. Charlize jokes that she has recorded some music that Kristen can listen to. The fan then asks for Kristen’s Comic-Con name tag and the audience boos. Kristen offers to throw it to the fan but a Comic-Con volunteer says this cannot be done.
4:10 Kristen says that she is excited to play someone who is “not remotely self-conscious” and “who isn’t really aware of who she is but has such a strong sense of self.” Also, Kristen really likes that her character “gets to save the day.”
4:12 A fan yells out K-Stew. Charlize asks, “Me too?” When she is corrected, Charlize admits that she needs a hearing aid.
4:14 Joe Roth says that “truth be told” he was looking for an unknown Snow White. “The more we thought about it, here is this woman who has proven within a franchise to be a big, big star. The idea to get her out of the franchise and put her into a different movie” was appealing.
4:15 The moderator says that they are out of time and the panel ends. Boo! So fast.
