Lily Collins, daughter of English musician Phil Collins, plays Snow White.
Directed by Indian Tarsem Singh, "Mirror Mirror" revamps the classic Brothers Grimm tale of "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" and stars Oscar-winner Julia Roberts as the evil queen.
In this version of the story, the evil queen schemes for control of the kingdom after her husband, Snow White's father, dies. Sean Bean plays the king and says being a part of the film was a nice change of pace for the British actor known for playing dark and angst-ridden villains.
As the story continues, Snow White is banished to the forest after her beauty wins the heart of the prince that the evil queen wishes to marry. In the forest a man-eating beast awaits Snow White but she is rescued by a band of diminutive highway robbers. The seven dwarfs inspire her to grow strong and become determined to take back her kingdom.
Julia Roberts and the film's director Tarsem Singh appeared put-off on the red carpet when reporters asked about comparisons to another upcoming film, "Snow White and the Huntsman," starring Charlize Theron and Kristen Stewart. That version is a darker, less family- friendly version than the lighter PG-rated "Mirror Mirror".
Armie Hammer, who plays Prince Andrew Alcott, was set to appear on the red carpet but could not attend the premiere because he is currently filming "The Lone Ranger" alongside Johnny Depp.
"Mirror Mirror" is set to hit theaters in the United States on March 30th.
