Izzard, Hoskins, Marsan, Graham, And Jones Will Play Dwarves In SNOW WHITE AND THE HUNTSMAN

I think it’s pretty cool that the dwarfs in Universal’s SNOW WHITE AND THE HUNTSMAN, are named after ancient Roman emperors, I wonder what the project’s rival, Relativity’s untitled SNOW WHITE movie would offer to compete with this coolness. And it seems like Universal’s going all Brit for their dwarfs too..

According to Heat Vision Eddie Izzard, Bob Hoskins, Eddie Marsan, Stephen Graham and Toby Jones are in talks to play some of the dwarves in the film. The leader of the dwarves is Caesar, played by Ian McShane
Jones plays the timid Claudius, Hoskins plays the blind Constantine, and Izzard as the biggest burliest of the bunch, named Tiberius
Initially scripted by Evan Daugherty with rewrite by Evan Spiliotopoulos

SNOW WHITE AND THE HUNTSMAN starring Chris Hemsworth, Kristen Stewart and Charlize Theron.

here’s basically the plot..
It’s about the huntsman who’s ordered to take Snow White into the woods and kill her but he chooses to let her go. They both get chained together and they both escape.
Now, they don’t fall in love, make no mistake, the huntsman is not Snow White’s love interest in this story,…the huntsman becomes her mentor, teaching her how to fight and survive….against her evil step-mother Ravenna.

Word has it the project might use FX technology to make thesps who play the dwarves to be in Dwarf’s height.

This new take is from scribe Evan Daugherty (HE-MAN AND THE MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE, SHRAPNEL), and marks the directorial feature of Rupert Sanders. Project is produced by Joe Roth.
