Kristen Stewart fantasy fairy tale film has finally found it’s leading man.

The upcoming Snow White and The Huntsman has gone through a few possible actors to fill the role (Viggo Mortensen, Hugh Jackman) but Thor star Chris Hemsworth has grabbed up the role of Eric the Huntsman.

Hemsworth will be a bounty hunter working for Ravenna, the Evil Queen (Charlize Theron) who needs Snow White (Stewart) killed to remain fairest in the land. When Eric learns of the Queen’s involvement in his own wife’s death, he helps Snow escape and trains her to fight back.

The film is scheduled to be released in December of 2012.

Kristen Stewart is rumored to be in the lead for a new version on a classic.

Snow White and The Huntsman is promising to be a dark, sinister tale of the Brothers Grimm story (not at all similar to Disney’s seven singing dwarfs version) and Stewart just might be the next Snow White.

Rupert Sanders is directing this tale of an assassin (the Huntsman) hired to kill Snow but he instead trains her to fight the Evil Queen.

Her costar from the upcoming film On The Road, Viggo Mortensen is in negotiations for the Huntsman and Charlize Theron is cast as the Evil Queen but the lead actress is still missing.

Besides Stewart, Riley Keough (her Runaways costar) Bella Heathcote and Sucker Punch’s Emily Browning are all in the running for the coveted part.
