Back in November of last year, we got our first look at the OTHER Snow White movie, the one NOT starring Kristen Stewart and Charlize Theron. This one is called Mirror, Mirror, and Julia Roberts is the Evil Queen and Lily Collins (daughter of Phil) is Snow White. The first trailer was just awful –

It’s not often that Hollywood’s celebrity types are in the red, but take one look at the red carpet and you’ll soon see how many stars are shunning blonde and brunette hair for something a little more WOW.

Cover your eyes, Kristen Stewart. You do NOT want to see this.

A couple new photos from Bel Ami have been released, and they depict Robert Pattinson like millions of Twilight Saga fans never wanted him to be: kissing women that are not named Bella Swan. See for yourself:

Bel Ami comes out on March 2 and find Pattinson in the role of Georges Duroy, a man who rises to power in Paris by sleeping his way through rich, beautiful women. But at least he has good taste.

The females in question are played by Christina Ricci, Uma Thurman, Kristen Scott Thomas.

Check out the Bel Ami trailer and decide: Will you go see R. Patt in this role?

I have some affection for Nikki Reed as a relatively nice-seeming castmember of the Twilight franchise. I haven’t seen an interview with her before. So I was surprised by the fact that she has a kind of a nasally, mildly annoying voice. Nikki takes the cover of Seventeen’s December/January issue, which we first saw a

Take the following news item with a grain of salt the size of Robert Pattinson’s fan base…

An unnamed source tells Perez Hilton that Nikki Reed and Kristen Stewart “can’t stand each other.” The reason? Robert Pattinson cheated on the latter with the former!

“Kristen has never forgiven Nikkie for the fling she had [with Rob],” this insider claims. “Kristen never confronted Rob about the affair, she just put the blame on Nikki and accused her of pursuing him.”

After remaining relatively off the celebrity gossip radar for a few months, Robsten has been making ridiculous tabloid news for a couple weeks ago. One second, they’re married. The next second, on the verge of a break up. It’s just so hard to keep track.

Do you believe this latest rumor?

We remember Nikki Reed admitting the fact that “not all Twilight stars are best friends…” and now we may see why! According to an insider, Robert Pattinson cheated on Kristen Stewart with Nikki! OH NO HE DID NOT! OH NO. HE. DID. NOT! The source claims: [Nikki and Kristen] can’t stand each other,. They

Seen here having a slow roll orgasm from being touched by my favorite Kardashihater Daniel Craig at last night’s NYC premiere of Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, Rooney Mara is quickly becoming the Vulcan Natalie Portman, because she’s getting cast in movie after movie after movie. But before David Fincher plucked Rooney and threw her into his movies, she shot a guest spot on Law & Order: SVU and she tells Allure (via Page Six) that it was torturous for her. I know, Rooney Mara has been through so much. Miss Sophia should lend Rooney her “ALL MY LIFE!” speech, because this is a girl who has struggled! Obviously. Light a patron saint candle for this young famous actress from a family of multimillionaires after you read about the hardships she’s suffered through.
“It was so awful. So stupid. Me and my boyfriend — although I [didn't] look old enough to have a boyfriend — went and beat up these fat people, and at the end of the show you find out that I used to be obese and I hate fat people. It’s ridiculous. Who would ever do that? Who would beat someone up because they’re fat? People are obsessed with that show. I don’t get it.”

Miss Sophia seriously just rolled her one good eye at Rooney. Rooney just showed us that she’s a GOOP-in-training. How nice of her to drop a lump of ungratefulness all over the show that gave her one of her first acting jobs.

If people weren’t obsessed with that show, it would’ve been canceled a long time ago, she never would’ve been on it and she probably wouldn’t be in that Dragon Girl s**t. I mean, Rooney’s big movie hasn’t even come out yet and she’s already Megan Fox-ing at the mouth. Rooney, please pull up a chair next to Kristen Stewart in the HO, STOP section of the auditorium.

And here’s more of Rooney wearing a Tron negligee to the GWTDT premiere.

It’s difficult to get Robert Pattinson to talk about Kristen Stewart in detail, even though the actress finally came out and admitted the two were dating earlier this year.

But get Pattinson out of the country, apparently, and all hesitance goes away. Just read what he told Brazilian magazine Capricho in a recent interview.

“She’s ambitious,” Rob said of his costar on screen and in real life. “I like that obsessive determination she has to be herself. She’s amazing. She takes the things she says too seriously, kind of like the opposite of me.”

And how did Pattinson think Stewart looked in her Breaking Dawn wedding dress?

Like “a sexy goddess. She looked amazing.”

AWWWW, no wonder these two just got married! (NOT!)

I didn’t write about this yesterday because I didn’t really think there was much to it, first of all, and second of all, the story made me too happy, and Kristen Stewart super-fans already hate me enough (because I dare to call their idol a “twitchy lip-biter”), so I don’t need the extra dramz.

Lip and eyelid abuser Kristen Stewart has Michelle Trachtenberg to thank for having everything a ho could ever want including millions of dollars shoved into her chain wallet and a loving boyfriend who she is contractually obligated to lick on until the last Twilight movies comes out on DVD. Michelle bragged to UsWeekly that the director of the first Twilight movie, Catherine Hardwicke, handed her the role of Bella Swan, but she was much too busy doing I don’t even know what and so she dropped it into Kristen’s Styrofoam donation cup. Oh, and Michelle also turned down a role in Thirteen. That Michelle Trachtenberg, b**ch is so busy turning down roles that she obviously doesn’t have time to ever accept a role.

Michelle made the right choice. Why do a piece of s**t movie series that would’ve made her beyond rich when she can do a piece of s**t movie where she gets to inhale the aromatic Maybelline syrup that seeps out of Zac Efron’s pores (see: 17 Again)? Michelle is the real winner here. This is what Michelle had to say about her part in the making of Mouth Breather Stewart:
“There was definitely interest here and there because there’s only so few pale girls in Hollywood,” she explained.

“I’ve known [director] Catherine Hardwicke since the movie Thirteen,” she said. “I was actually supposed to star in that, but I was on Buffy at the time.” (Hardwicke, who went on to directed the very first Twilight film in 2009, directed the saga’s star Nikki Reed in the 2003 drama and Evan Rachel Wood played the film’s primary character. Reed cowrote the gritty screenplay.)

So why did Reed, Kristen Stewart and Ashley Greene end up as Breaking Dawn’s leading ladies instead of Trachtenberg? “I guess schedules never worked out,” she explained.

“I already have Buffy,” she added. “I’ve already done the vampire thing.”

I always love it when actors are like, “I could’ve had that b**ch!” But you didn’t, ho, and now you have to work with Blake Lively! Truthfully, Michelle would’ve never worked out. Bella is as bland as the paper she was created on, so Kristen Stewart is a perfect choice.

And here’s Michelle awkwardly trying to get away from a dude who is my first choice for the role of Edward when Twilight gets remade in two years.

"Breaking Dawn Part 1" continues to be number one at the box office, despite "The Muppets" opening on a family holiday weekend. With all of the success and money "Twilight" has enjoyed, it's bound to have lots of fans in Hollywood. Plenty of people there just want to jump on the bandwagon of something popular.

However, there are a number of celebrities who appear to be genuine Twi-hards. They may start watching "Twilight" as a joke, or read to the first book just to find out what the hype is about, but it ends up hooking them. They end up talking about it in interviews and tweeting about it much more than I imagine they expected.

We already know about the obvious celebrity Twi-hards like Dakota Fanning, who won the part of Jane after admitting her fandom, and any female child star under 15 years old. Here are 10 Twi-hard celebrities that you may not know about.

50 CentWhen 50 Cent decided that he needed new G-Unit recruits, Robert Pattinson's name made his shortlist. He told MTV, "He has a big enough following to be the frontline. 'Twilight' ain't no joke." Curtis Jackson is joking. He attended the "New Moon" premiere and admitted on "Jimmy Kimmel Live" that he's a fan. There was even a minor campaign to get him into "Breaking Dawn." After all, with as many bullets as 50 Cent has taken, he may be a vampire.

Aziz AnsariSnarky comedian and Twitter superstar Aziz Ansari decided to live-tweet his "Twilight" watching experience. Obviously, he had his fair share of jokes: "If you stop a van from hitting a girl, don't be such a d–k about it. Be like, "Look baby, I'm a vampire. That's how." #EdwardisBeingaD–k." Ultimately, he decided he loved it: "WHOA. Can anyone that has long scraggly hair in this movie turn into a wolf? That's dope! Why do people hate on this movie???! #Twilight." However, he still can't pick a team: "Still can't figure out if I'm #TeamJacob or #TeamEdward or #TeamAsianKidwithGlassesThatGoestoSchoolwithEm …"

Sofia CoppolaThe director of "Lost in Translation" and "Marie Antoinette" was on the shortlist of people that Summit considered to helm the "Breaking Dawn" monster. Obviously, she lost out to Bill Condon, but that doesn't make her less of a fan. Coppola revealed to MTV News, "I'm impressed by Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson pulling it off in that whole story. I just love that it's so romantic." While I like the job Condon has done so far, I can't help but wonder what Coppola's "Breaking Dawn" would have been. It would have included more Scarlett Johansson-esque awkward brooding.

Simon Pegg & Nick FrostThese British comedic actors, who starred in "Shaun of the Dead," "Hot Fuzz" and "Paul," have tweeted back and forth about "Twilight" more than smitten schoolgirls. Pegg wrote, "@nickjfrost He's effectively pushing her into Jacob's muscular and suspiciously hairy arms." To which Frost replied, "@simonpegg she's a nice girls but she keeps falling for monsters." And before you think they're just joking around, Pegg already admitted his Twi-hard-dom on Twitter: " Read the Twilight books on hols. Really enjoyed them in a sort of 'creepy old man reading delusional, horny, daughter's diary' way."
Patrick Kane19-year old hockey star and Chicago Blackhawks center Patrick Kane likes to put on a tough exterior, but even a celebrity teen can be sold out by his mother. Kane's mom caught him reading "Breaking Dawn" – and told the press. When asked about it, he laughed, "She would throw me under the bus like that. I watched the first three movies and was really interested … so I decided to read the fourth book." That's cool, Kane. Hockey players should enjoy ice-cold vampires.

How dare anyone from the Twilight cast alter their perfect appearances without our permission? But that’s beside the point.One of these vamps, or maybe werewolves, got clipper-happy…

I somehow missed last week’s Star Magazine cover story, and I apologize for that, because it is HILARIOUS. It’s all about “Celebrity Stylists Tell All” and those stylists – all totally anonymous, of course – are massive b**ches. They want to take everybody down, but I just wanted to excerpt my favorite pieces: Kristen Stewart:

The wedding dress that Kristen Stewart wears as Bella Swan in Breaking Dawn was custom-made, gorgeous… and darn expensive!

Speaking to E! News, author Stephenie Meyer says she personally selected designer Carolina Herrera to come up with the gown because she wanted it “to be something special, not something that you’re going to see every day.”

Hence the crepe satin, French Chantilly Lace and nearly 200 button across the back and sleeves.

THEY DO!

“I love what Carolina did with it, she came up with a stunning concept. It’s similar to what I envisioned, but with added elements,” Meyer says.

Want one yourself for when you walk down the aisle? A replica version is available right now from Alfred Angelo bridal dress company. It’s priced at $799.

But Herrera plans to include the real gown in her 2012 collection, which will be on sale at CHNY boutiques. It might set you back a few allowances, though: expect it to cost around $35,000.

Stunning!By now, most Twi-hards have already seen Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) stroll down the aisle in her highly anticipated wedding to Edward Cullen (Robert…

This dark-haired vamp is ready to light up the big screen now that the vampire films are finally coming to an end. We predict that

Promising acting careers can be derailed by many things — sex scandals, drug habits, bad hair — but the most insidious cause is choosing the wrong franchise. What looks like a dream gig, with the kind of job security few actors can hope for, can quickly go south if the movies aren’t good. As the fourth Twilight film tears up the box office and the reputations of several SAG members, we’re taking a look at five actors whose futures were maligned by franchises.

1. Kristen Stewart

“Ms. Stewart is good enough to help you overlook just what a stock character the smart-alecky, sensitive-underneath-it-all Sarah really is.” — A. O. Scott, reviewing Panic Room

The inspiration for this list, Kristen Stewart was given a blessing and a curse that few others (maybe the Harry Potter kids) could understand. The lumbering, unstoppable behemoth that is The Twilight Saga may have made her famous, ubiquitous, and so rich she could do that Scrooge McDuck pool-full-of-gold thing, but it has also permanently connected her to one Bella Swan. And that’s too bad, really. Because whatever you think of Stewart now — I, for one, like her — back then, she was talented and attracted to some interesting work, like David Fincher’s thriller Panic Room and Into the Wild. She was tough and shy, smart but too cool to make a big thing out of it.

In a different universe, Kristen Stewart a) is the undisputed fantasy of every indie guy in the land and b) would laugh at the idea of getting a C-section, on-screen, via a guy’s mouth. But for at least the foreseeable future, Stewart is quite literally stuck in the Twilight zone, where no role she takes (see the upcoming Snow White and the Huntsman) will be seen on its own. Things will be “so much like her role in Twilight!” or “so different from her role in Twilight!” but they will never just be. If Stewart does manage to pull herself away from the gravity of this franchise, it will be a pretty damn impressive trick.

2. Ewan McGregor

“Mr. McGregor underplays Renton to dry perfection without letting viewers lose sight of the character’s appeal.” — Janet Maslin, reviewing Trainspotting

It seems silly to have to argue for Ewan McGregor’s talent. He became more or less the king of the indie world with movies like Trainspotting, Velvet Goldmine, and The Pillow Book, charming legions of teenage girls (and gay boys). He had talent to spare, a Scottish accent, and a willingness to be totally naked on screen. So it was exciting when McGregor landed a plum role in what seemed like a sure-fire hit. And this was the surest of the sure: there was no doubt that the three Star Wars prequels would be a massive phenomenon, and getting to play a character as iconic as Obi-Wan Kenobi was a slam dunk for any actor.

But oh, how blissfully ignorant we were back then. McGregor’s career may not have been the only casualty of the Star Wars prequels (weep for Jar Jar Binks’s stage career), but it is probably the saddest. What should have been a reward for years of good work in small films — and his chance to become a bona fide Hollywood star — was instead a debacle, and once the lightsabers were put away, McGregor returned to the land of the indies. Maybe that’s better for everyone.

3. Halle Berry

“Billy Bob Thornton and Halle Berry star as Hank and Leticia, in two performances that are so powerful because they observe the specific natures of these two characters, and avoid the pitfalls of racial cliches.” — Roger Ebert, reviewing Monster’s Ball

Halle Berry was once considered something of a unicorn in Hollywood: an African-American actress who seemed ready to stay on the A-list for a long time, command the box office, and have her choice of roles. And while her Academy Award-winning turn in Monster’s Ball came out slightly later than the first X-Men installment, she had done enough good work in projects like Bulworth and Introducing Dorothy Dandridge that her extremely wooden performance as Storm was seen as a fluke. But then it just kept happening in the film’s sequels, no matter how much critics and fanboys alike prayed for any sign of life. How could a woman who had allowed herself to be so raw and explosive and flat-out ugly in other films turn into little more than eye candy in a terrible wig? And while Berry’s remained a likable figure, it’s sad to think of her Academy Award sharing a shelf with her Razzie Award for Catwoman.

4. Tobey Maguire

“Anchoring the movie is Mr. Maguire’s sober, wide-eyed Homer, a wounded, moon-faced innocent who, in leaving the inst*tution that nurtured him, blindly follows his heart and finds fulfillment working outdoors.” — Stephen Holden, reviewing The Cider House Rules

The late ’90s were banner years for Tobey Maguire. Considered a talented rising star at the time, he had a string of good roles in good movies with The Ice Storm, Pleasantville, The Cider House Rules, and Wonder Boys. (He was so good that people mostly let him and Leonardo DiCaprio slide on that whole “p***y Posse” thing, which in hindsight maybe we as a culture should have tried to come down on a bit harder.) He seemed sweet, loveable, and nearly the epitome of the boy next door. Hey! That sounds like the perfect guy to take on the role of Spider-Man, and he was, for a while. His Spidey was kindhearted and noble, and you wanted to give him a hug every time he had to put duty before making out with Mary Jane.

And then the disastrous Spider-Man 3 came out, and all you could see was douchiness. It was intentional, of course — that’s what the story called for, even though it still wasn’t successful. But suddenly all you could see was his emo hair and his petulant frown and think, wait, wasn’t that guy once in a group called the p***y Posse? That’s the problem with iconic roles: when they go sour, the stigma tends to stick with you. Maguire does have a shot at redemption with The Great Gatsby, but we’ll have to wait and see.

5. Elijah Wood

“As Frodo, Elijah Wood uses his giant eyes to project a kind of haunted innocence.” — Richard Corliss, reviewing The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring

I know what you’re thinking: why use a quote about how good Elijah Wood is in The Lord of the Rings when that’s the franchise that I’m also claiming ruined him? Because Wood — unlike Halle Berry in X-Men — wasn’t ruined by how bad he was or how bad the movies were. He was ruined because he was so good. Wood had already done solid work for years, from The Good Son to The Ice Storm, and he wasn’t scrambling for parts. He was kind of quirky, though not so much as to be off-putting, and his boyishness was endearing.

But once you’ve seen Wood as a hobbit — the curly hair, the pointy ears, and those almost otherworldly eyes — it’s impossible to un-see it. He should have had his pick of any roles after the job he did in the trilogy, but he will always be a hobbit. Put him in a business suit, and he’s just an executive hobbit. It’s telling that one of his big roles after LotR was as the mute psychopath Kevin in Sin City, a role in which his face was almost completely hidden. Wood should be thanking his stars that Peter Jackson managed to fit Frodo into the upcoming adaptation of The Hobbit. Ride the Frodo train as long as you can, my friend.

Paul Dano and Michael Pitt also up for the role

With two of the three major roles cast for Jaume Collet-Serra’s adaptation of Akira, Warner Bros. is set to shore up the role of Tetsuo before Thanksgiving. The Unknown director already has Garret Hedlund (TRON: Legacy) and Kristen Stewart playing Kaneda and Kei respectively, but will hold screentests this Sunday and Monday for Tetsuo, the young man who channels the powerful Akira. Set to test are D.J. Cotrona (Detroit 1-8-7), Logan Marshall-Green (Devil), Toby Kebbell (RocknRolla), Richard Madden (Game of Thrones), and Rami Malek (Larry Crowne). Retesting for the role will be Paul Dano (Little Miss Sunshine) and Alden Ehrenreich (Twixt). Hit the jump for more on Akira.

Heat Vision reports that Warner Bros. is anxious to wrap up the casting of the lead roles in Akira, having also offered parts to Gary Oldman and Helena Bonham Carter recently. The $90 million project will move from its manga roots in Neo-Tokyo to Neo-Manhattan, but keep the core story of two young men: Kaneda, the head of a motorcycle gang and Tetsuo, a powerful young telekinetic who becomes overwhelmed by his abilities. Kei (Stewart) is a member of a resistance organization who possesses some of her own unique powers.

Right off the bat, I can advance a few of the actors based on looks alone. Granted, I’m comparing their portrayal of Tetsuo to the animated character of the 1988 version, but still. Kebbell, Malek and Dano seem to have the physicality that the animated Tetsuo portrayed. Cotrona and Marshal-Green seem a little too rugged for the part. Although Tetsuo was part of the motorcycle gang, his brawn was definitely not his best attribute. Ehrenreich and Madden look like they could be brothers, but neither of them strikes me as “Tetsuo.”

In the end, I’m pulling for Dano. I think he has a great look for the part and, judging from his performance in Little Miss Sunshine, can definitely act on the mania and torture that Tetsuo goes through. I’m sure some of you will disagree. Let us know what you think about the actors and which one, if any, should get the part. Keep up with all our Akira coverage here.

Wtf. Paul Dano needs to stay away from this.
Edited to add: per Heat Vision, Michael Pitt is also testing for the role.

Well, readers, it’s Friday. And frankly, we’re feeling a little bit punchy here at Flavorpill HQ. Perhaps that’s why we are so entertained by a bizarre project that originated on a Something Awful form. The folks at Thaeger clued us in about a thread called “Famous duos… MERGED!” that has Photoshoppers switching or merging the faces of pop-culture pairs and groups — Jay and Silent Bob, Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson, Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock. This is, without a doubt, a silly enterprise, yet some of the Photoshops are so well done as to be eerie and disorienting. Freak yourself out after the jump.

Party season is almost upon us and with it comes the most festive of trends – sequins. This week saw the fash’ pack pick up the trend with gusto – Kristin Stewart’s worn <two> sequin embellished gowns in as many days, as part of the Twilight ‘Breaking Down Part 1’ promo’ tour.

Stephenie Meyer’s characters (played by Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart, pictured) are becoming ever less plausible. And the dialogue in this movie is the most leaden and banal in the series.

Kristen Stewart is already the center of the film universe with Breaking Dawn premiering this weekend, but Snow White and the Huntsman, with the Twilight star as the t*tle character, is shaping up to be an epic film event in an own right.

Three new posters have debuted, featuring Stewart as the fairest (and the fiercest) of them all, Chris Hemsworth as Thor, the famed Huntsman, and the incredible Charlize Theron as the evilest of Evil Queens. Click to enlarge each below:

This is not to be confused with the other Snow White film due out next year starring Julia Roberts and Lily Collins (see the more family friendly Mirror, Mirror trailer). Huntsman promises to bring the action, mystery and suspense.
