Lily’s upcoming flick is just the latest in a long line of fairytale remakes set to hit screens.

And Kristen’s leading man? Everyone from Tom Hardy to Johnny Depp have been linked to the part, but K-Stew's On the Road co-star Viggo Mortenson is close to signing a deal, if rumours are to be believed.
Oscar-winner Charlize Theron has been confirmed as another star in Kristen's flick, and will take the role of the Evil Queen Ravenna.
