Film producers considered casting a lesser-known actress for the role of Snow White, with mention of Riley Keough, Felicity Jones, Bella Heathcote, Alicia Vikander, and Rachel Maxwell as possible picks. This idea became less likely as known actresses Dakota Fanning and Kristen Stewart were later rumoured to be short-listed for the role.[8] On March 4, 2011, the casting rumors were fuelled even more by a series of tweets from co-producer Palak Patel that confirmed that Stewart was offered the role.[9] The tweets also stated that an official confirmation would be coming out later that week, but it would be several weeks before her casting was officially confirmed by the studio.
At first, Winona Ryder was considered to play Ravenna, before the role went to Charlize Theron.[10] Tom Hardy was first offered the role of Eric, the Huntsman, but turned down the offer which then went to Johnny Depp, who declined the role as well.[11] Viggo Mortensen was in negotiations with Universal for the part, but ultimately turned down the role, too.[12] Hugh Jackman was briefly offered the role, but also declined.[13] In 2011, Thor star Chris Hemsworth was eventually cast in the role of the Huntsman.[14]
Production[edit]
Principal photography took place in the United Kingdom.[15] The beach scenes were predominantly filmed in Pembrokeshire, on the Marloes Sandsbeach near the village of Marloes between September 26 and 29, 2011.[16] Though the beach was not closed to the public during filming, as filming progressed, certain parts were advised to be off limits. A computer-generated castle was set on nearby Gateholm island. A field above the beach was used for production purposes, and a special wooden ramp was built for vehicles and horses to access the beach.
The English singer Florence and the Machine recorded "Breath of Life" exclusively for the film, which was reportedly inspired by Theron's character Queen Ravenna.[17][18]
The film utilised academic consultants from the University of Chichester and the University of Oxford for back-up research on fairy tales and medieval battles.[19]
