Sean Bean Set To Play The King In Tarsem Singh's 'Snow White'

Sean Bean As Boromir

After a lot of casting news on both the Snow White projects coming up in 2012 a while back the two films have gone rather quiet. Tarsem Singh's The Brothers Grimm: Snow White will be battling Snow White And The Huntsman in 2012 and so far it is fair to say that the latter has whipped up far more excitement.

However, Heat Vision have revealed that Sean Bean is in final negotiations to play Snow White's father, the king, in Tarsem Singh's version of the film. A big name like Bean's is seriously needed to boost the films image as so far Julia Roberts, Lily Collins and Armie Hammer are the only well known names on the list. The Huntsman has already got on board Charlize Theron, Chris Hemsworth, Kristen Stewart, Ray Winston and Bob Hoskins among others so Singh really needs Bean to sign his name on the dotted line.

With previous fantasy roles in Lord Of The Rings and TV series Game Of Thrones, Bean wouldn't look out of place in The Brothers Grimm: Snow White. He definitely has the look of a king about him
