Seems like the fairytale films have been trending -- started with the success of Tim Burton's Oscar winning "Alice in Wonderland" which made $ 1 billion on the box office. A few titles have been started and currently in developing phase; "Snow White and the Huntsman" which stars Kristen Stewart and Charlize Theron (no Viggo Mortensen anymore, he's out), "The Brothers Grimm: Snow White" which currently cast Armie Hammer in addition to Julia Roberts, "Peter Pan Begins" with Channing Tatum in it, "Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunter" starring Jeremy Renner and Gemma Arterton, and an underdeveloped titles such as "Maleficent", the dark witch of "Sleeping Beauty" which was reportedly will be helmed by Tim Burton and starring Angelina Jolie.
Meanhwile, the 14-years-old "True Grit" star Steinfeld has been stealing Hollywood scenes after her brilliant performance was recognized and snapped a shot for an Oscar nomination earlier this year. I don't know if it was a lucky hit, since it was her first ever film she ever starred in. Well I guess real talent will speak at the right time, no? Anyways, I'm pretty excited about this "Sleeping Beauty" project -- hopefully they will make a "Beauty and the Beast" one!
