Snow White And The Machine: Florence Welch Tapped For 'Huntsman' Soundtrack
'Breath of Life' to be featured in Kristen Stewart movie, arriving June 1.

"Snow White and the Huntsman" doesn't hit theaters until June 1, but we already have information about the film's soundtrack — and just who will be involved in it.
Namely, Florence and the Machine, who will channel all their ethereal, otherworldly magic into a brand-new song — called "Breath of Life" — for the "Huntsman" soundtrack. We've yet to hear "Breath," but thanks to the good folks at Universal, we know it's one of many songs featured on the soundtrack and comes backed by a full orchestra and choir.
At press time, there's still no info on who else will join Florence Welch on the soundtrack or when it will be released, but Flo definitely seems like a natural fit for the film, which stars Kristen Stewart as the titular heroine, Charlize Theron as the Evil Queen and Chris Hemsworth as the other titular character, the Huntsman. Judging by an early trailer for the film, this most certainly isn't your mom's adaptation of Snow White. Instead, it gets plenty dark and features Snow in full battle mode, armor and all.
Late last year, Stewart praised the film and said she was having such a good time filming "Huntsman" that she was already open to making sequels. In particular, she loved punching Hemsworth in the kisser.
"It made such a sound, it was in a scene," Stewart recalled of the big moment. "Girls, if you've ever wondered if it works, it works. It literally spun him right around. I was supposed to miss him by this much. I basically knocked him right out of his close-up. It'll definitely be in the movie."
Check out everything we've got on "Snow White and the Huntsman."

Lindsay Lohan is confirmed to make an appearance on "Glee." The announcement comes in a wave of casting news for the hit Fox comedy, which includes a spot for comedian and talk-show host Whoopi Goldberg.
A rep for Lohan confirmed the casting to E! News. In a May episode of the show, Lohan is rumored to be onboard to play herself as a judge at Nationals.
Lindsay's mother, Dina, once took issue with the show for poking fun at her after the show included a scene in which Katie Couric informed Jane Lynch's character, Sue Sylvester, that she beat out Dina and her dog Sparky to make the list of the "world's biggest losers." Dina had said, "It's a shame as the dance numbers are amazing, but the writers need to be nice and more creative as opposed to being hurtful."
Lohan has recently been making strides to get back into the acting spotlight. She hosted "Saturday Night Live" this season and is in talks to play the late Elizabeth Taylor in a small-screen biopic.
As for Goldberg, she'll be in three episodes in May, playing a New York Academy of the Dramatic Arts professor (Carmen Tibideaux) who travels to Ohio to meet with Kurt and Rachel about possible acceptance into the school.
In other "Glee" news, rumor has it One Direction might be following in the Wanted's footsteps, getting covered on the show.
Matthew Morrison reportedly told the Sun that the cast will be covering the boy band's single, "What Makes You Beautiful."
"I've just heard of them, they're really taking over the States," Morrison said. "We are covering one of their songs on 'Glee': 'What Makes You Beautiful.' I need to YouTube it to practice."
A rep for the band hadn't responded to MTV News' request for confirmation by press time.
