Jessica Chastain Joins Emily Blunt In The Cast Of Universal's THE HUNTSMAN
A few weeks ago, it was revealed that Emily Blunt (Edge Of Tomorrow) was in talks to star alongside Thor's Chris Hemsworth in Universal's Snow White & The Huntsman spin-off. Now it appears another great actress has joined her. Hit the jump to check it out!
Jessica Chastain is a hot commodity in Hollywood these days - having starred in the likes of Interstellar, and scored Oscar nominations for her impressive turns in Zero Dark Thirty and The Help. She has, in the past, talked about her desire to star in a comic book movie, but it seems that will have to wait. Deadline are reporting that the talented actress has just joined fellow 'Captain Marvel' fan favorite Emily Blunt (Edge Of Tomorrow) in the cast of Universal's up and coming Snow White & The Huntsman spin-off, The Huntsman, due for release April, 2016.
The movie will focus on Chris Hemsworth (Thor)'s titular character. So far both actresses' respective roles are unknown, but they will be joined by another formidable female presence in Charlize Theron (Mad Max: Fury Road) - who'll reprise her role as 'Ravenna'. The film will be directed by Cedric Nicholas-Troyan from a script written by The Shawshank Redemption's Frank Darabont - who was, at one point, in line to direct it himself.
What do you guys think? Are you excited to see another big name join this franchise, or would you rather see her talents used elsewhere - the MCU or the DCCU perhaps? Let us know below!
