Can Universal muster up another date move for their Snow White project? They’ve already moved it once, just far enough to knock the wind out of Relativity’s sails, but now that studio has shifted their project to March (which is now a money-making month). Is Universal prepared to make their dickishness clear? Maybe. Could this kill the project? Unlikely. Would they move their film back to its original December date for space? Probably not. But who knows. Regardless, now Relativity has to sweat to get their film done but quick!
So as it stands…
Realtivity: Snow White (dir. Tarsem) – March 16th, 2012 starring Julia Roberts, Lily Collins, Armie Hammer, and Nathan Lane
Universal: Snow White and the Huntsman (dir. Rupert Sanders) – June 1st, 2012 starring Kristen Stewart, Chris Hemsworth, and Charlize Theron
Your move Universal…

Good business sense =/= dickishness. Getting out first IS a major factor in overall performance. Nobody wants to be perceived as “the OTHER movie with that one premise.”
To Universal’s credit, though, their project clearly has the more compelling premise of the two.
This battle of wills is hilarious since both films will fail regardless of release date.
Baller. In the Game of Snows, you win or you die.
And yet Singh still has “Immortals” on deck, to be released this November. If I’m doing the math right, that makes four months between Tarsem Singh pictures. Sheesh.
Fuck Snow White. Give the Dwarves a movie.
