Julia Roberts as The Evil Queen in Upcoming Snow White Film: First Look!

We never thought we'd say this, but America's Sweetheart is turning evil.

Julia Roberts takes on the role of the queen - who is not a nice person - in 2012's new Snow White film, one that puts a darker twist on the beloved fairy tale.

Lily Collins plays Snow White. Here's a shot of both of the actresses ...

Of Roberts, Collins says: "Everybody knows Julia's smile and the sound of her laugh, and she really takes advantage of it and uses it in a different way for her version of the Evil Queen. She used her magic and smile and laugh in a creepy way."

The still-untitled Roberts-Collins-Armie Hammer film is not to be confused with Kristen Stewart's Snow White and the Huntsman, which is also scheduled for a 2012 release.
