Although she doesn't pass the audition, the 'Mirror Mirror' star supports Kristen Stewart who is chosen to play the princess in its rival movie 'Snow White and the Huntsman'.
Lily Collins, who tackles the role of Snow White in "Mirror Mirror", admitted that she auditioned for the same role in Kristen Stewart's "Snow White and the Huntsman". The daughter of musician Phil Collins said in a recent interview, "I did read the other Snow White script. I auditioned for it."

Though failing the land the part in the movie, the 22-year-old actress had no hard feeling. "I've been so excited for Kristen [Stewart]. I think that story is so different than ours and the girls are so different," she gushed. "She's perfect for her version, and I'm really excited to be doing this one and I think they have totally different audiences."

Talking about the difference between the two movies, Collins stated, "Our Snow White starts off as the fairytale princess we all know and love and then she progresses into a young woman and much of a fighter, but it's not an edgy version of the story or a darker version. It's very much a comedic adventure and I think the other one is a little darker."

Explaining what she did to prepare for the role, the "Abduction" leading lady opened up, "This was insane training. I've been fight training and fencing for about three months now. I was kickboxing, doing some stuff on wires. It's been really intense." She added, "I've gotten a lot of bumps and bruises, but so far no bad injuries."

Collins stars opposite Julia Roberts in this upcoming movie, and the young star's impressed with her senior who plays as Evil Queen Clementianna. "Julia was amazing. Her laugh and smile-that's classic Julia and she brings that to the movie, but she puts a twist on it because she's evil," she sang praise for the "Eat, Pray, Love" actress.

Based on the legendary fairytale by Brothers Grimm, "Mirror Mirror" is set to released in the United States on March 16, 2012. Joining Collins and Roberts in the cast ensemble are Sean Bean as the King, Armie Hammer as Prince Andrew Alcot, Mare Winningham as Baker Margaret, and Michael Lerner as the Baron.
