The Hollywood Reporter exclusively released 23 on set photos of Lily’s upcoming movie “Mirror Mirror” with Julia Roberts. We added the set photos with Lily in our gallery, she looks stunning as Snow white!
It was the dog days of summer 2011, but Lily Collins found herself running through a forest covered in snow.
Collins, then a semi-unknown actress whose biggest previous role had been as Sandra Bullock’s daughter in The Blind Side, had scored the lead opposite Julia Roberts’ evil queen in Relativity’s then-untitled update of the Snow White story.
This particular scene, in which Collins is pursued by Nathan Lane in a carriage through a vast Montreal soundstage, required her to get physical, employing the four months of sword training she took for the role and shaking off the timid stereotype of Snow White that audiences remember from the story-books and 1937 Disney animated classic.

Just before Christmas the first posters for “Mirror Mirror” were released, we added them in our gallery. Lily is playing Snow white in the movie. We also added the scans of Total Film (December 2011) in our gallery, they featured an article about the movie.
Lily’s upcoming movie Mirror Mirror (previously titled Snow White) have released some new productional stills of the movie and a HD trailer. I have added the stills and HD captures of the trailer to the gallery. The movie itself seems so great and Lily looks and acts great from what you can see in the trailer. Here is the plot summary for the film.
An evil queen steals control of a kingdom and an exiled princess enlists the help of seven resourceful rebels to win back her birthright.
The first image of Lily as Snow White was released this week at the San Diego Comic-Con and I’ve added a gorgeous HQ version to our gallery.
Keep checking here for the latest news and (hopefully) on the set photos from this project.
Relativity Media’s still untitled Snow White film will start shooting on June 20th. The studio had to speed things up after they outmanuevered Universal by moving their Snow White film ahead of Universal’s Snow White and the Huntsman, after Huntsman had moved up to June 2012 from December 2012 to beat Relativity’s fairy tale film.
The comedy action-adventure finds the evil Queen stealing control of the kingdom while “an exiled princess enlists the help of seven resourceful rebels to win back her birthright.”

Two cinematic reimaginings of Snow White are currently in the works, but lest you think both are going to turn out more or less the same, simply listen to how director Tarsem Singh conceives of his film’s look.
“It’s actually like if you looked at Gaudi’s architecture, based in England, done like a turn-of-the-century Russian film by an Indian guy,” he told MTV News.
Right. We’re guessing that the competing Snow White tale — from Rupert Sanders, making his directorial debut after a string of hyper-stylized TV commercials — isn’t going to encroach on Tarsem’s territory, and that’s just the way he wants it.
“There’s a brown guy telling you a Snow White tale to white people. Just by definition, when you put different ingredients, you get a different stew,” he said.
His yet-untitled film stars Julia Roberts as the evil queen, Armie Hammer (“The Social Network”) as the handsome prince and, after being cast earlier this month, Lily Collins (“The Blind Side”) as Snow White herself. Why Collins, a relative unknown whose profile is on the rise after being cast in the adaptation of the “Mortal Instruments” young adult book series?
“Her eyebrows,” Tarsem joked. “I just saw her eyebrows and I said, ‘That’s Snow White.’ ”
The daughter of pop singer Phil Collins has been making a name for herself in Hollywood. Lily Collins will play Lucy in Screen Gems May 13th 3D post-apocalyptic comic book movie, Priest, alongside Paul Bettany (Legion) and Maggie Q (“Nikita”). The actress, who’s best known for her performance as Sandra Bullock’s daughter in the Oscar-winning The Blind Side, will step into the coveted role of Snow White in Relativity Media’s June 2012 summer release. Collins, who was at WonderCon 2011, talks about Priest, comic books, 3D movies, and video games like Crash Bandicoot and Spyro the Dragon in this exclusive video interview.
Priest is an action thriller set in an alternate world — one ravaged by centuries of war between man and vampires. The story revolves around a legendary Warrior Priest (Paul Bettany) from the last Vampire War who now lives in obscurity among the other downtrodden human inhabitants in walled-in dystopian cities ruled by the Church. When his niece (Lily Collins) is abducted by a murderous pack of vampires, Priest breaks his sacred vows to venture out on an obsessive quest to find her before they turn her into one of them. He is joined on his crusade by his niece’s boyfriend (Cam Gigandet), a trigger-fingered young wasteland sheriff, and a former Warrior Priestess (Maggie Q) who possesses otherworldly fighting skills.
Collins will team up with Julia Roberts, who will play the wicked queen plotting to kill Snow White in the new movie. The film will be directed by Tarsem Singh, who was also at WonderCon 2011 showing his new 3D movie, Immortals, starring Superman Henry Cavill.
“Snow White was my favorite fairytale [growing up], and when I first read about the project, I was like, ‘I have to get in on this,’” Collins told People Magazine.

I really lucked out with this one. I asked for a 1:1 with Lily Collins for Priest just because I thought the pretty girl from the action movie would be cool. The day before the interview, she gets the part of Snow White in Tarsem Singh’s next movie.
Lucy (Collins) is the target of Priest’s (Paul Bettany) quest in the movie. She’s kidnapped and he goes back on duty to find her. In the footage screened for WonderCon, she hangs from a speeding train.
Q: What an exciting day you must’ve had yesterday, seeing the Priest footage and landing the Snow White role.
Lily Collins: Yeah, first time in 3D, saw it yesterday, that was shocking. Put those glasses on and I thought that was incredible. I didn’t know what the 3D was going to turn into and it was just so amazing and exciting. Yes, and then found out that I was cast as Snow White so it’s quite the big day.
Q: And it was April 1st, but it’s all true, right?
LC: I know, actually that’s the first thing I said when my team called me and told me. I said, “If this is an April Fools joke, I don’t know what I’ll start to do.” Because I was so excited. I had literally read the day before and met the director the day before and then was cast yesterday, so it was less than 24 hours.
Here’s a video with Lily at the WonderCon Priest panel, where she’s talking about her upcoming projects Snow White and The Mortal Instruments. I have also added a video with Lily at the panel discussing her Priest role.
