During her interview with Access Hollywood Lily Collins revealed that Kristen Stewart's Snow White isn't the only one kicking butt. She had to endure intense training for her fight scenes. She learned kickboxing, and wire training, that resulted in some minor scrapes.

Lily Collins' Snow White film is directed by Tarsem Singh, who is known for his impressive visuals. The trailer for Mirror, Mirror hit the internet last week and it generally was met with negative comments.

There has even been a bit of controversy as MovieMavericks.com has tracked down the few positive comments to the same IP address. That would indicate that someone is a huge fan, or someone is being paid by the studio to pump up a bad product.

“I did read the other Snow White script. I auditioned for it, but I’ve been so excited for Kristen. I think that story is so different than ours and the girls are so different. She’s perfect for her version, and I’m really excited to be doing this one and I think they have totally different audiences.”

“Our Snow White starts off as the fairytale princess we all know and love and then she progresses into a young woman and much of a fighter, but it’s not an edgy version of the story or a darker version. It’s very much a comedic adventure and I think the other one is a little darker.”


“This was insane training. I’ve been fight training and fencing for about three months now… I was kickboxing, doing some stuff on wires. It’s been really intense. I’ve gotten a lot of bumps and bruises, but so far no bad injuries.”


“Julia (Roberts) was amazing… Her laugh and smile — that’s classic Julia and she brings that to the movie, but she puts a twist on it because she’s evil. She’s got that same ‘America’s Sweetheart’ smile and laugh, but it’s so evil and it’s just the mental mind games and the eye contact and she was so gracious on and off set and we had a great time.- Access Hollywood


"Mirror, Mirror" Comments Controversy


MovieMavericks.com points out that several “strangely optimistic comments” posted to their own Mirror, Mirror trailer write-up originated from the same IP address. Upon Google-searching those comments, MovieMavericks discovered that the same IP address user had posted the same positive reviews on other movie websites — leading them to believe that either A) There is just a very dedicated Brooklyn-based Tarsem Singh fan who is hellbent on raising the bar for Mirror, Mirror buzz. Or B) The studio (or a party involved with the film) is having someone do some web damage control on the atrocious-looking trailer.

Among the copied and pasted positive remarks that MovieMavericks.com cites:

· “Julia Roberts is going to be awesome as the Evil Queen. She’s such a good actress!”

· “Definitely seeing this with my boyfriend! Can’t wait to see Lily Collins in action!!”

· “Tareem [sic] Singh makes awesome movies. Immortals was amazing and this will be too.
