Relativity Media has cast the seven dwarfs for their untitled Snow White film.

According to Variety, this comes on the heels of Relativity moving up the release date for the film from June 29, 2012 to March 16, 2012.

There is a competing Snow White film at Universal, "Snow White and the Huntsman," that opens June 1, 2012.

Tarsem Singh is directing the Relativity version, formally known as "The Brothers Grimm: Snow White."

The cast includes Julia Roberts as the evil Queen, Nathan Lane as the Queen's servant Brighton, Lily Collins as Snow White and Armie Hammer as Prince Andrew Alcott.

Also joining the cast is Mare Winningham ("Georgia") as Baker Margaret and Michael Lerner ("Barton Fink") as Baron.  

The dwarfs include Mark Povinelli ("Water for Elephants"), Jordan Prentice ("Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle"), Danny Woodburn ("Death to Smoochy"), Sebastian Saraceno ("Bedtime Stories"), Ronald Lee Clark ("Epic Movie"), Martin Klebba ("Hancock") and Joey Gnoffo ("The Benchwarmers").

Melissa Wallack and Jason Keller wrote the script.

The modern day retelling of Snow White finds the vengeful heroine joining forces with a gang of seven dwarfs after her evil stepmother kills her father.

Ryan Kavanaugh, Bernie Goldmann and Brett Ratner are producing.

Shooting begins in June.
