Is Julia Roberts the fairest of them all?

The 43-year-old Oscar winner plays the Evil Queen in Tarsem Singh's adaptation of the classic fairytale Snow White. The film, which is currently untitled, also stars "Abduction's" Lily Collins and "The Social Network's" Armie Hammer.

"I don't turn into a witch. I became a hag. There's a difference," Roberts explained on Access Hollywood Live Monday. "A little glimpse into the future for Mrs. Moder!"

Tarsem tells Entertainment Weekly that Roberts' character "outsources her evil, just like most people. I wanted a person who is just schizophrenic. She's a person who would just do all the evil she needs to do to stay in power."

Roberts added that their version of Snow White won't stay true to the original. "We don't have the classic dwarves," she explained on Access Hollywood Live. "Our dwarves have different names and personalities than the fairytale."

The untitled Snow White film hits theaters March 16.

The new film won't stick to the details of the classic fairytale. Is this a good idea? Tell us on Facebook.
