KRISTEN'S INTERVIEW WITH VIPDE. SAM CLAFLIN MENTIONS KRISTEN




Kristen talks about the most intriguing thing about character. She is essentially good, we didn't make her a superhero. Joked about being vain.

UNIVERSAL MOVES FORWARD WITH SWATH SEQUEL


Photobucket
Deadline.com - June 7, 2012 EXCLUSIVE: Studios are relying heavily on sequels this summer, but the toughest thing to do is to introduce something new that launches a franchise. It looks like Universal has done that with Snow White And The Huntsman. I’m told that the studio is making all the moves that indicate another chapter is in the offing, and on a fast track.

Universal commenced David Koepp to write the sequel script, which Deadline revealed in late April might happen. The studio is now talking with director Rupert Sanders about a return, after he made his feature directing debut on the first installment. Sanders is interested; he had a great time making the first movie. But unlike most first time directors, he doesn’t have to come back. That’s because Snow White And The Huntsman was sold in an auction by CAA that included a presentation by Sanders of how he was going to shoot the film. Sanders was part of the package, as was producer Joe Roth, and that gave the agency leverage to make a much better deal than a first timer usually gets. The filmmaker is in demand now, but he hasn’t chosen his next film and a sequel might well be it. I understand that the actors in the film have options for two sequels, so that part of the equation shouldn’t be too difficult.

RUPERT SANDERS TALKS ABOUT CASTING KRISTEN



Photobucket

  HP.com It’s not just a big movie for you, it’s a big movie for Kristen Stewart. In a, “I’m not just Bella Swan,” kind of way.
Rupert Sanders: To me, casting is all about finding a character within the actor off the screen as much as on the screen. I think Kristen is incredibly brave.

People forget that she was in movies like “Panic Room.
Well, my theory is a simple theory: She played such a good version Bella Swan, people think Kristen Stewart is Bella Swan. She’s not, you know? If you meet Kristen, she’s wildly kind of giggly and vivacious and rebellious and naughty — all things that Bella Swan isn’t.

RUPERT SANDERS AND SAM CLAFLIN TALK ABOUT KRISTEN




Sam's Interview with Cinema.De. On Kristen "She is the most down to earth, normal girl you will ever meet in your life.”

 Rupert Sanders talks about Kristen and SWATH with Den of Geek


Give us your take on Kristen’s character. Do you see her as a Christian hero?
There’s definitely a spiritual side, I’d say. It’s the Joseph Campbell The Hero With a Thousand Faces you know, she’s the archetypal mythical hero, so they are always given those characteristics. In hindsight, there’s a few things in there, in that she’s walking on water and these things are quite religious but I think ultimately she is a spiritual being, she is drawn by that and people are drawn to her because of that.

RUPERT TALKS ABOUT KRISTEN. VH1 INTERVIEW




  VH1 via veronicaspuffy
 “She’s very vital,” Rupert Sanders told Kate Spencer at the film’s press junket in the UK last week. “She’s very on the edge and very rebellious, which I like. She doesn’t play by anyone’s rules. She’s just got all those things that make a very modern and intoxicating Show White.”

Rupert said he didn’t want this film to be about “damsel in distress waiting for her prince,” but rather a “leader” who inspires her people to follow her into battle for the greater good. He found his heroine in Kristen. “When I first met her with the producers,” said Rupert, “we all saw something really raw and primal in this girl, and we really liked that.”

RUPERT SANDERS' TALKS KRISTEN AND SWATH WITH THE HERALD SUN


Photobucket 

The  HeraldSunAU has an new article up on their site.

Stewart was always first choice for the lead, Sanders says. "Obviously everyone knew about Kristen. She was someone we wanted to meet," Sanders says, standing outside one of his 30 astounding sets.

"We started, as you do in these things, looking around. (The film's producer) Joe (Roth) had just made Alice in Wonderland, where he had found a new actress (Mia Wasikowska) and we felt there was something very innocent and pure about finding someone with no other roles that you associate them with. But when we went to meet Kristen it was a very simple, done deal. Yes, you are the one."

Coincidentally the unknown actor they turned down for the role, Lily Collins - the raven-haired daughter of Phil Collins - was cast as Snow White in the rival Mirror, Mirror.

Based on the trailer, his version of Snow White is a visual feast. Sixty per cent was shot in real locations, including a deserted Welsh beach and some woodland in London's Queen's Park. The sets, including the evil queen's milk bath and a snow-covered woodland, are breathtakingly real.

"There's quite a lot you're nervous about when you start a project of this scale," Sanders admits."I wanted to create a world where this all felt tangible and it didn't feel like fantasy but felt real."

He adds that his mantra throughout the project was to make a film "that means something" and is true to the original, seven-page story. "People think Snow White is Disney," Sanders says."Disney really made the Grimm's fairy tale very family orientated.But it is a very dark story about so many deeper issues that were never in the Disney version. It's like a biblical tale almost, with a lot of messages and hidden meanings. It's a story that is as resonant today as it was when it was first recorded."

RUPERT SANDERS BLEEDS FOR SWATH


Photobucket

LATimes Early in”Snow White and the Huntsman,”several droplets of blood fall to the frozen ground in extreme slow motion, a sample not only of the menace to follow but also of first-time director Rupert Sanders’ truly painstaking attention to detail.

 The shot was the last sequence filmed by the veteran commercial director, and no matter how hard the crew tried, the production’s artificial serum never had the proper viscosity or splatter. “It just looked like raspberry jam,” Sanders said. So Sanders insisted that a crew member draw about 10 teaspoons of the director’s own blood in a syringe, and that’s what audiences will see when “Snow White” opens June 1.

 Though there are plenty of fairies and magical beasts in his “Snow White,” Sanders’ movie plays like a late 15th century “Gladiator.”With a script by John Lee Hancock (“The Blind Side”), Hossein Amini (“Drive”) and newcomer Evan Daugherty, “Snow White” follows the contours of the fairy tale, complete with charming woodland creatures and a passel of dwarfs, while injecting it with grit and verisimilitude. Snow White (Kristen Stewart) may be the fairest of them all, but there’s more dirt under her fingernails than most 5-year-old boys. “Trying to ground everything in reality was the most important thing to me,” Sanders said.  

In his telling, Snow White is no damsel in distress. Rather, she’s both warrior and healer — she has the power to restore nature, whose balance the queen has upset. Like a vampire who consumes both flesh and earth, Ravenna has leveled the land, deforesting the home of countless wild beasts, trolls, sprites and dwarfs. “She’s a burning fire that touches the tinder of the people around her,” the director said of Snow White. “They see something in her that can make them whole again. She’s the beating heart of life.”Read in full Via kstewartnews
