Ian McShane Will Play Caesar!! But He's Not That Damn Dirty Ape, Or That Old Dead Dude!!
Merrick here...
I'm struggling with computer issues today so keeping this short. The awesome Ian McShane who is is currently appearing as Black beard in PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: ON STRANGER TIDES, looks to be set for Rupert Sanders' "revisionist" SNOW WHITE AND THE HUNTSMAN film.
The project, being directed by Rupert Sanders, is a revisionist take on the fairy tale and features Snow White (Kristen Stewart) as a princess who escapes her evil stepmother (Charlize Theron) with the help of a huntsman (Chris Hems worth) who was to have killed her but now trains the princess to survive and fight back.
[EDIT]
Chance will play Caesar, the leader of the dwarfs.
...says THR HERE.
Chance joins the already cast Chris Hems worth (THOR), Charlize Theron, and Kristin Stewart (that sleepy seeming girl from the TWILIGHT SAGE).

Also: Kristen Stewart is god-awful in every way. Get that bitch out of cinema entirely.

"McShane" must be pretty close to "Chance," according to Merrick's spell-check program.
by WriteForTheEdit
Which might also explain Chris Hems worth. (I'd say Chris' hems worth about five bucks.)
-
yes..we do read your articles

Ian "Chance" McShane is... a dwarf.

Okay. I thought I stopped taking drugs a while back. Maybe I didn't.

I want to be close to Charlize if theres a Four Minute Warning.....I'd buy that for a Dollar!

Can you Fly Bobby?

Just save yourself the time and read the original article from THR. Merrick just f's it up.
-
This is just becomming painful. Between long-winded discussions of Harry's rehab in his every post (Sorry, but descriptions of medical ordeals are not cool news, I just don't care all that much), and the unreadable dreck that constantly slips past the spell checkers and basic grammar - do you people even read what you post? - This site is becomming a waste of time.

Just a simple macro. Whenever he types "Dwight" it writes "diapers".

First thing that came to mind.

This sounds like another overpriced mistake ala Red Riding Hood.
by Huey_Freemans_afro
What the hell is wrong with all these ppl to sign off on this? It's so obviously going to suck.
-
A Hems worth!
-
Kristen Stewart is BELOW the old Beverly Hills 90210 girls in ability and in appearence. How does she keep getting work?
-
That alone makes me not want to watch this movie.
-
Does he grow Twilight Sage in his garden?
-
With both films having dwarves and all.
-
...or shitty writing, it really could go either way around here lately.

They're going to have to uglify Theron again for this role
by Andy Pandy
because there ain't no way in hell that Kristen Stewart is "fairer" than Theron
-
hmmmm.
-
Never ceases to amaze me how often this happens on AICN -- READ your own articles before you publish them! Lord.
-
June 21, 2011, 1:48 p.m. CST
I think the writers at AICN have their own "FIRST!!!" contest between each other.
by V'Shael
Hence the rush to get any old shite out on the web, without taking 5 minutes to proofread the damn thing.

I wonder why Harry doesn't just replace the staff with bots.
by JayStrang
Or has he already, and this is the result? Otherwise this shit is inexcusable.
-
If I'm not very much mistaken Napoleon was 'That Old Dead Dude', Caesar was actually 'That Salad Dressing Dude'
-
WTF?

Is this the script that won the Script Pipeline competition a couple years ago.
by Pvt. Duke
Love the irony that they called for new writers with original ideas, and the winner was Snow White: The Action Flick. If you need me, I'll be off hanging myself.

Caesar was a "salad dressing dude." Get it right, man!
-
and although she has the pale complexion down, personally Kristen Stewart doesn't bring to mind Snow White's beauty...I would've watched Runaways but her being Joan Jett turned me off.
-
IDK how the film turned out, but she looked to physically embody the role well.

Kristen Stewart looks like the female version of Corey Haim
by ShabbyBlue
She has that same blank sleepy/stoned deer-in-headlights look in her eyes with her mouth slightly open all the time like some idiot mouthbreather. Corey Haim had that same look throughout his pathetic acting career. I just don't see the appeal in this girl and why so many think she's hot. She looks like she doesn't have much going on in that brain of hers.

This one sounds waaaaaaaay shitty. Way to choose what to greenlight hollywood!

The article mentions 4 actors and you got 2 of the names wrong
by Adelai Niska
is copy and paste that fucking hard?
-
...but no one else who works for this site has read any of this talkback and taken any action to correct the glaring errors in this "article?" I truly don't get this place sometimes.
-
Not one of the writers or other staff can be bothered to take the two seconds required to fix this. It's been up for half the bloody day already.
-
Also, do you think she still has that same constipated expression on her face when she's being screwed within an inch of her life?? Will have to ask Robert Pattinson. That's if they have actually ever done the deed and relationship contract doesn't end when the movies end....
-
This Snow White project sounds like something straight out of Tropic Thunder.
-
Kinda like there were two movies about Capote writing In Cold Blood, there was Capote and Infamous, both at the same time. But instead of Capote, it's crappy PG versions of Snow fucking White.
-
Wonder how this will turn out
-
of course they haven't done the deed kristen is a lez- big flaming lez

Ian McShane's reading this and thinking "Who the hell is this Chance?"
by MrMysteryGuest
-
petulant/bored face and she is clearly proud of her endlessly lickable legs as she always shows off all of them. I don't blame her for the inanity of Twilight which is Meyer's fault. They are actually a good time if you watch and jeer along with Rifftrax.
-
the monkeys in them dont fling shit....but watching these trailers makes me feel like the director is flinging shit at me.
-
That's the straw that broke the camels back. I'm accutely aware that absolutely NO-ONE will care about what I'm about to write, but after spending nearly 10 years checking this site daily I feel like I should put an end to this properly. I'm fed up of constantly having to trawl through and interpret all the typos, grammatical mistakes (you're supposed to be fucking writers ferchrissakes), blatant errors, non-news stories I find on this site. I could just about handle all the moronic talkback trolls and Harry's belief that he is a celebrity we want to read about (Dude, I love your passion, but you are here to let us know about films - if I wanted to know about the ups and downs of your personal life, I'd follow you on facebook) but I have had enough. It's been a fun ride, I wish you all the best for your future endeavours (except you Nabster - fuck you) and I hope Harry gets back on his feet soon but I came here for COOL movie news, not this. I hereby sumbit my resignation to this site, effective immediately. See you around.
-
but add to that the movie is going to try and make us believw that her 40 lb frame can hold its own in a fight with anyone? McShane, Charlize, and Hemsworth, enjoy your paychecks!
-
Ian McShane is reading this and thinking, "Who is this cocksucker motherfucker, Chance?!"

and Caesar??

Eddie Izzard, Bob Hoskins and Toby Jones playing Tiberius, Constantine and Claudius, respectively.
by DannerV2

-
Yeah, so with this and that "Doctor Who" episode he was in, I'm just going to be flashing back to that 'd--kless traitor' scene in "Your Hignness"...
-
That is something I would like to see.

Great job, AICN. What a joke.

Mirror mirror on the wall, I know I'm better looking than that Kristen Stewart bitch.
by highfunctioningsociopath
I'm Charlize Theron for fuck's sake.
