Lily Collins has revealed that she actually auditioned for Kristen Stewart's role in Snow White and the Huntsman before landing a part in a different version of the fairy tale.
The actress plays Snow White in the upcoming Mirror, Mirror, but said that initially tried out for Kristen's character in the other movie.
'I did read the other Snow White script,' she told Access Hollywood.

'I auditioned for it, but I've been so excited for Kristen. I think that story is so different than ours and the girls are so different.
'She's perfect for her version, and I'm really excited to be doing this one and I think they have totally different audiences.'
And the film also had another perk in that she got to work with her idol, Julia Roberts, who plays the Evil Queen.
'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,' Lily said.

'She's got that same "America's Sweetheart" smile and laugh, but it's so evil and it's just the mental mind games and the eye contact and she was so gracious on and off set and we had a great time.
'We just had a laugh. In between takes she'd be like, 'I'm so sorry for being so mean,' and then we'd start laughing.'
Lily the daughter of British singer Phil Collins and his second wife, American Jill Tavelman.
She has been modelling since she was 16 and had a bit part in Sandra Bullock's Oscar-winning movie The Blind Side.
She recently starred in Abduction with Twilight's Taylor Lautner, whom she dated briefly.
