EXCLUSIVE: ‘Thor’ star Chris Hemsworth has emerged as a front runner to star in Snow White and the Huntsman, the Universal fairy tale that also Charlize Theron and Kristen Stewart. Rupert Sanders is directing. Hemsworth’s stock is up as Thor continues to clean up overseas in anticipation of Friday’s domestic opening for the Kenneth Branagh-directed Marvel film. It isn’t clear yet whether Hemsworth will take that role. Stay tuned.


C’mon, Chris! You’re better than this.
Agreed, Moot. Hemsworth should steer clear of this project.
There’s a reason why Jackman and Mortensen turned this down….because the role isn’t worth having! Hemsworth is going to be a leading man in action movies in his own right after Thor. This whole Snow White-as-a- bad-ass concept is lame. He may not be an Oscar worthy type actor, but he could be the next Bruce Willis/Sylvestor Stallone type of his generation, but he has GOT to steer clear of this tween crap!!
I also see him as the next Bruce and for that he should choose the right action movies which could bring him a lot of money.
He needs to turn this role down. He’s poised to be an action star with the success of Thor, which could make him the Bruce Willis/Sylvestor Stallone of his generation. Playing second fiddle to Stewart’s supposed action flick isn’t what he needs. He’s got to stay away from this tween girl stuff if he wants to keep credibility with American male audiences.
iI hope he gets the role. I love him
Oh … they’re still making this one?
I need to see Thor to see if he can do this. But he seems to have the rugged look required.
Look yes, Acting ability….. Maybe. Meh!
how many different guys have up for this role now?
he is so beautiful.
Yep, which renders the whole “Huntsman is a mentor, not love interest” idea pointless. Who in their right mind would pick Prince Charming over him?
But it should make things more interesting.
Nope. It would be clear from the start that the prince is a boring boy while the huntsman is super hot. So predicable.
This casting is a terrible idea especially compared to Viggo or Fassbender…
No it`s a better idea from commerical POV. Viggo is a boxoffice poison (stop living in 2003 Viggo fanboys, he didn`t have a hit since then and LOTR certainly didn`t open because of him) and Fassbender didn`t break out in a big way yet to draw big audience. OTOH, Hemsworth is praised for his charisma and carrying Thor by all crirics 9the movie is over 90% fresh so it`s a concensus).
I still think this movie is a bad idea especially since another one is already in production.
viggo is a way better actor though. not to mention hugh jackman was in talks, then i read depp was another name thrown around. then fassbender. now it’s almost like whoever isn’t working on something better will get the role. so if chris gets a better movie offer bet he will go that way.
thank god he’s more age appropriate than hugh jackman for this little girl in this terrible idea.
whomever thinks viggo should play dirty old man against her is nuts. the whole idea is nuts. but who is the market for this race to two flops? still trying to figure out.
Going from Viggo to this lughead? UGH.
We should expect seven of the following recognisable actors with comedic experience to play the Seven Dwarfs – Doc, Grumpy, Happy, Sleepy, Bashful, Sneezy and Dopey – who have a scene where they all sing “Heigh-Ho” from the original 1937 classic film:
Ben Stiller, Adam Sandler, Will Ferrell, Ricky Gervais, Simon Pegg, Eddie Izzard, Rowan Atkinson, Owen Wilson, Jack Black, Rob Schneider, Jeremy Piven, Mike Myers, Jim Carrey, William Shatner, Steve Martin, Alec Baldwin, Tim Allen, Chevy Chase, John Goodman, Billy Connolly, Danny DeVito, Robin Williams, George Lopez, John Cleese, Steve Coogan.
Hi ho! Hi ho! Hi ho! Hi ho! Hi ho!
Hi ho! Hi ho!
It’s home from work we go (whistles)
A real meathead. Thor looks horrendous, so bad.
If you’ve seen the remake of star trek you have already seen that he can act. He played kirks dad. You know the giuy that made you cry like a little baby for the first five minutes
you cry so easily..
He was so nice good actor.
A pay check’s a pay check. I think all Hollywood actors should just take the highest paying gig regardless of the subject matter or the talent attached to the project until they burn the f%ck out. Please respect my view, okay.
You must be an agent or manager.
Don’t do it Chris! Kirsten Stewart will ruin you. Stay away from Bella she’s nothing but drama.
