It’s been only a couple of days that Tom Hardy was heard to be close to signing on the dotted lines for the role of Huntsman in ‘Snow White and the Huntsman’ but now the buzz is the role is being offered to Johnny Depp. From the time the film has been announced various names have got associated with the project.
Angelina Jolie was heard to take on the role of the evil Queen Ravenna; soon it changed to Charlize Theron, now Hardy’s name is getting replaced by Depp. It is really unlikely that Johnny will take the part; firstly the actor is super-conscious of not repeating the same kind of a role in two different films. He has already played the role of Mad Hatter in ‘Alice in Wonderland’ ad film which has an alternative take on the story. So it is pretty dubious that he would take the role of the Huntsman in another Disney’s tale.
Furthermore, ‘The Brave’ actor is too busy with his other projects which will hit the screens from the end of this year and will go on till 2011. In December ‘The Tourist’ is opening, in March the actor’s film ‘Rango’ will hit the screen, around May the fourth installment of the Pirates film ‘Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides’ and sometime next year ‘The Rum Diary’ will hit the theatres.
Universal has done a press release stating that ‘Snow White and the Huntsman’ will release in December 21st 2012. Since it has a long time before it starts, will Johnny be part of the project?
