Kristen Stewart dons armor and wields a huge sword and shield for her next movie. Rest assured, it will not be your mother and father’s Snow White.
Stewart joined other cast and crew Saturday at the Comic-Con fan convention for a preview of next year’s “Snow White and the Huntsman,” an action-packed twist on the fairy tale.
The “Twilight” star told a Comic-Con crowd that doing a sweet, traditional Snow White was not something “I was jumping at.” What attracted her was that this Snow White was a bold leader with her feet firmly on the ground.
“Also, I get to have a sword and stuff,” Stewart said. “Really cool weapons.”
The movie is due out next June and is one of two “Snow White” movies Hollywood has coming.

Russian actress Margarita Levieva is reportedly being lined up to star as the lead female character in the next James Bond film.
The 31-year-old actress, who starred as Ashton Kutcher’s love interest in 2009 film “Spread” and alongside Matthew McConaughey in “Lincoln Lawyer”. She has caught the eye of producers who want her to play the lead female character opposite Daniel Craig, who is set to reprise his role as bond in the 23rd James Bond film, reports contactmusic.com.
“The perfect Bond girl is beautiful, confident but mysterious, and Margarita has all of those qualities,” said a source.
“The deal will need to be finalised sooner rather than later, because the schedule for production is supposed to get under way in around October this year,” he added.

Freida Pinto “felt bad” she could eat more than her co-stars on the set of Immortals.
The Slumdog Millionaire actress claims most of the movie’s cast – which includes Henry Cavill, Kellan Lutz and Luke Evans as mythical Greek figures – had to stick to strict diet and exercise plans to maintain the muscular physiques required for the film.
She, however, did not have to abide by the same food restrictions.
Freida said: “I didn’t have to keep it as strict as the boys had to. I would see them and offer them fruit and they’d say, ‘No, we can’t have fruit.’
“And I’m like, ‘Fruit? Fruit’s healthy!’ And they’d say, ‘Yeah … but it’s sugar.’ I just felt bad for them.”
The former model is adamant she always watches what she eats, even off-set, so she had no problems fitting into tight costumes worn by her character oracle priestess Phaedra.
She added to Access Hollywood: “I generally just take good care of myself. I just watch what I eat – especially when you’re going to be in a tight costume.
“You don’t want to be bloated and sucking your stomach in. You just want to be able to stand tall and let the corset do what it has to do.”
Frieda – who is dating Dev Patel – also credits her stunning figure to her consumption of vegetable juices with herbs and spices.
She has previously said: “I make loads of fresh vegetable juices with coriander orpepper so that it’s tastier. The concoction makes my skin glow and is good for the digestive system too.”

A cosmetic advertisement featuring actress Julia Roberts has been banned in Britain after it was digitally altered to make her look flawless.
The advertisement was banned after a Liberal Democrat MP, Jo Swinson, complained about the amount of airbrushing used on the image, contactmusic.com reported.
Swinson claimed the commercial gave a “false impression of beauty”.
The Pretty Woman star appears in the campaign for Teint Miracle foundation by Lancome, which is owned by L’Oreal, and bosses claim the product “recreates the aura of perfect skin”.
Officials at the Advertising Standards Authority have removed the ad after branding the images misleading.

Deepika Padukone and John Abraham, who are working together for the first time in an upcoming film `Desiboyz`, seem to be bonding big time.
Maybe the reason behind their bonding is the common heartbreak-issue, which DP went through last year and John seems to be sailing through currently.
DP and John are currently shooting in London for their film and they seem to be spending a lot of time in getting to know each other.
Given that it’s the first time the two have come together professionally or for that matter interacted, the whole unit was surprised to see their bonding.
Two of them have been cracking jokes, sharing laughter, going for coffees and hanging out together. Apparently John even discussed his break off with Bipasha to Deepika. And the gorgeous dusky beauty DP completely empathized with him and gave him her genuine advice.
A source revealed to a daily, “John and Deepika have become really good friends. They are close to the extent that he even talked about his break up and the low phase in his life with her. Even though the London schedule is over, they are still in touch and are looking forward to working together again. Deepika not only lent him an ear, but also understood his situation and his need to keep it private.”
DP gave tips to John on how to deal with a break up and get a closure. “She has emerged as a stronger person after her split with Ranbir and she could feel his pain. They both bonded on topics of relationship and heart break.”

Anushka Sharma, who made a big splash in Bollywood with her grand debut with Shah Rukh Khan, is showered with exciting offers. The Bangalore girl looked a girl next door in her first film but surprised the audiences with her bold avatar in `Badmash Company` opposite Shahid Kapoor.
The actress, who for a short while was criticised for her anorexic look has now worked hard on her body and looks fuller. However, she is not too sure if wearing a bikini is a good idea for her or not.
Anushka is not too convinced if it is a great idea to flaunt her body in a bikini. She had a meeting with the creative head of the production house to ask for his second opinion on this matter.
A source revealed to a daily, “Anushka is in two minds over the bikini for the film. Even though she`s in the right shape, the actress feels she might over-expose and get flak for it. In the past there have been offers where she had to wear a two-piece but she rejected them saying she needed to work out and that she wasn`t in the best of her shape. This time, however, she doesn`t have an excuse since she`s looking fitter than ever.”
Stop contemplating girl! You do have a great body and we are sure you can pull it off in a bikini perfectly!

Hollywood heartthrob Robert Pattinson says that he was plagued by insecurities during the filming of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn because he had to take his shirt off.
The 25-year-old British hunk said that his most anxious moment on set was when he was asked to bare his torso, reported Contactmusic.
“The thing I was most nervous about was taking my shirt off. I’ve managed to have my shirt on the whole series. In the book, (my character Edward is shirtless) almost every three pages. (I thought) ‘How can I wear a T-shirt in the sea?” Pattinson said.
He also warned fans not to expect too much from the shirtless scenes.
“I don’t want to get anyone’s hopes up. I look like an inflatable frankfurter in some of those (scenes),” he said.

Troubled actress Lindsay Lohan, who is facing a million dollar lawsuit from a rehabilitation worker, says she knew it was coming.
The Mean Girls star was accused of lashing out at Dawn Holland in December last year, during her stint at the Betty Ford clinic in California. Holland claimed to have been seriously injured during the altercation, needing surgery on her wrist.
Contactmusic.com reports that according to a source, Lohan knew this lawsuit was going to come.
She has been telling her close friends and family that she never laid a finger on Holland during the late-night confrontation, and that she is confident the ex-rehab worker won’t get a single penny out of her.
