Julia Roberts & Lily Collins appear in new ‘Snow White’ stills: busted & budget?
These are some new production stills from the new Snow White movie. No, not the one with Kristen Stewart as Snow White – that film is called Snow White and the Huntsman, and in that one, Snow is a warrior-princess or something. No, this other version of Snow White just seems like a live-action version of the cartoon. And by that, I mean that it looks really, really budget. Lily Collins plays Snow in this one, with Julia Roberts as the Evil Queen and Armie Hammer as the prince/love interest. Since this is so photo-heavy, let me just do some random thoughts with the relevant photos:
I hope Lily Collins is a talented actress, considering so much of the film is going to rest on her performance. I have the feeling that she has the potential to be a very attractive young woman, but it feels like she’s too young right now. Too young for this part, too young to carry a movie. Also, her brows are killing me. That’s some Sam Waterson brow happening there.
As for Julia Roberts – her costumes SUCK. Why does everything look so cheap?!? I can’t even look beyond the funky costumes. It’s like they’re trying to do Tim Burton on a budget.
The sets look budget too. And yes, that’s Nathan Lane back there. He’s the Evil Queen’s henchman or something. I bet he and Julia either had a great time together, or they absolutely hated each other.
Lily Collins says: “Julia’s playing evil in a way that I don’t think people are going to expect. Everyone loves that Julia smile and laugh and she maintains that, but in such this creepy eerie way that you don’t know if you love her or hate her. She’s brilliant and it’s been an honour. She’s so nice, she’s so classy, she’s just everything I had hoped she’d be. Julia gets to be quite horrible to me. There’s a scene where she pulls my hair and she pulled it so hard that some of it came out! But we kept rolling and afterward she was like, ‘I’m so sorry! I’m so sorry!’” Yes, I’m sure it was an “accident”.
OMG!!!!!!!! Her swan headpiece is just disturbing. JESUS CHRIST.
Armie Hammer already looks like a cartoon prince, so this one is obvious.
Why are the dwarves throwing gang signs?
