Everyone is comparing Lily Collins to Kristen Stewart when it comes to Snow White, but in actuality, the two films they're starring in are totally different. How do we know this? Well, let's just say Armie Hammer's character gets to lick Julia Roberts' face in Mirror Mirror. We just can't imagine what would happen if Chris Hemsworth were to lick Charlize Theron's face in Snow White and the Huntsman.

Mirror Mirror is a comedic take on the classic fairy tale, where the Evil Queen (Julia) tries to get the Prince (Armie) to fall in love with her so that they can get married and she can be rich. So during one scene, the Queen uses a love potion on the Prince... a love potion that turns out to cause "puppy love." Hence, the licking.
"I don’t even remember, honestly," Julia tells Access Hollywood's Billy Bush when asked how many times Armie licked her face. "I was so worried about this enormous tree of a man vaulting through the air onto me on this bed, and I didn’t want my wig to come off!"
Well, Julia might not have remembered, but Armie did. "I got in like five or six good licks," Armie tells Billy, adding, "she smelled of apple cinnamon, man!"

But although it was a thrill to be able to lick one of the most respected actresses in Hollywood, Armie said he was also terrified something would go wrong!
"More than anything, I told myself, 'As you’re licking her do not let drool come out of your mouth,' " Armie confesses. " 'You drool on this woman in this scene, you’re fired. You might as well go home!' "
We guess Armie didn't drool!
