As so often happens in Hollywood, when it rains it pours. The past 18 months have been Super Hero overload, now it seems Hollywood is turning to fairytales. In 2012 there will be not one, but two movies about the classic Snow White fairytale.
Last week the trailer for first time director Rupert Sanders’ Snow White and the Huntsman was released. Kristen Stewart stars as Snow White, Chris Hemsworth is the Huntsman, and Charlize Theron plays the Evil Queen. This is definitely not for kids. It’s a dark take on the classic (just as the Brothers Grimm intended) and looks great.
Today the trailer for Tarsem Singh’s (Immortals) Mirror Mirror was released. This seems more comedy driven. In this take of the fairytale, Lily Collins is Snow White, Armie Hammer is the Prince, Nathan Lane is Brighton and Julia Roberts is the Evil Queen.
Mirror Mirror is out March 16 2012 while Snow White and the Huntsman hits cinemas on June 1 2012.
Hi,
I’m Sarina Bellissimo and this is the place I come to indulge in my love of all things entertainment. I can’t remember a time when I wasn’t fascinated by all things Hollywood/showbiz. I blame my parents!
As a child my mum used to force me to watch old Elvis Presley films with her, and both my mum & dad would take my brothers and I to the Drive-In to watch the latest films (this is where my love for ROCKY began!). When not watching movies, I was trying to figure out ways to pull the back off the TV so I could somehow get into it and be a part of all the action on the screen!
This blog isn’t a place that revels in gossip and negativity. It’s a place where entertainment is celebrated. That said, this is a place you can turn to for honesty. Honesty and criticism don’t always mean attacks. I choose to criticise the piece of work but not the person and I acknowledge that just because I don’t like something, it doesn’t mean someone else won’t.
Here you’ll find interviews with some of the biggest names in the world of Entertainment, reviews, breaking news and my very own musings.
Away from The Bellissimo Files, you can find me on Spin 1038 on Saturdays, between 1pm and 3pm,presenting Plan B. There’s celebrity interviews, entertainment news, the low down on the must see movies and music releases of the week, the ultimate guide to what’s on where in the city, as well as masterclasses with experts on standby to answer listeners’ questions.
I also appear on TV3’s “Elaine” panel, talk movies on “Ireland AM” and you can sometimes hear me filling in on Moncrieff’s “Movies and Booze “(Newstalk)
The Bellissimo Files is constantly evolving. Files (topics) will be added or deleted as time goes on. Feel free to read, watch, comment, share, and make suggestions for what you would like to see on the site.
