Lilly Collins? Really. Kristen Stewart\’s SW will be a badass and she\’s going to nail it on screen. With Chris Hemsworth and Sam Claflin, my goodness is it really any competition. Charlize Theron as the Evil Queen? Did you see Monster? I rest my case.SWATH all the way.

I don\’t see how this looks particulalry positive for Universal. Universal only start shooting in mid-August for a film releasing at the beginning of June. That\’s barely more time for post-production work and also very close to the wire. Relativity\’s \”Snow White\” has also had the benefit of a far longer active pre-production period.

Amini is apparently the second person to re-write this alongside Evan Spiliotopoulos (Nutty Professor and some straight to DVD Disney sequels) despite the fact that they have a cast, locations and production date set for two months way. Hossein Amini wrote the great \”The Wings of the Dove\” years ago but not much since (Four Feathers, Shanghai). The screenplay for \”Drive\” is one of the weakest aspects and if the multiple interviews your site posts with your man-crushes Refn and Gosling are to be believed there was a ton of deviation from that script anyway.

I just don\’t get film studios. Why not just hire an original writer in the first place? They paid millions and millions of dollars for a script they clearly don\’t seem to have much confidence in anyway. The Snow White and the Huntsman script is garbage though. Still can\’t believe it sold for so much.

Relativity has already lost. The Snow White and the Huntsman script was sold for seven figures. I\’m not understanding why they would pay more than one person to rewrite when they could have just hired Hamini to do the script first. Universal\’s Snow White has the best chance at success if they don\’t shoot themselves in the foot. Beginning to think the other one is a bust.
