Though it was overshadowed by behind-the-scenes shenanigans between lead actress Kristen Stewart (The Twilight Saga) and director Rupert Sanders, Snow White and the Huntsman did quite well at the box office this summer. Despite the gossip-page turbulence caused by its principals, plans for a sequel were quickly put in motion.
Reports have clashed as to whether Kristen Stewart would be returning for Snow White and the Huntsman 2. Early rumors indicated that the sequel would press on without her, instead focusing on Chris Hemsworth (Thor: The Dark World) as The Huntsman. However, a recent interview with Stewart seems to confirm that she is all but locked into reprising her role as a martially-inclined Snow White.
In an interview with IndieWire, Kristen Stewart has more or less confirmed her enthusiastic involvement with the planned sequel to Snow White and the Huntsman. When asked where the story could take her character after the end of the first film, Stewart responds, “Oh, it’s gonna be f—ing amazing. No, I’m so excited about it, it’s crazy.”
After a follow-up question for details, Stewart replies:
“I’m not allowed. The other day I said that there was a strong possibility that we’re going to make a sequel, and that’s very true, but everyone was like, ‘Whoa, stop talking about it.’ So no, I’m totally not allowed to talk about it.”
This and other responses strongly indicate that Kristen Stewart is in for the long haul with Snow White and the Huntsman 2. While previous reports have hinted that her return was probable, this is the first time we have heard about her interest straight from the actress herself.
While this is great news for fans of Stewart and those who loved her performance in the original Snow White and the Huntsman, it does dull the sense that the sequel will strike out in a new and exciting direction. Of the titular pair, Chris Hemsworth’s Huntsman made for more interesting scenes and a much heartier screen presence. Hemsworth’s work was not exactly spectacular (nor was Stewart’s terrible), but the idea that the story would follow him on into other fairy tale domains was at least novel.
Now that Stewart’s Snow White is along for the ride, it’s uncertain whether the film will continue a story that was pretty well wrapped-up at the end of the first movie. One can only hope that the sequel will not supply Stewart with another dramatic pre-battle speech to stumble over.
For the moment, Snow White and the Huntsman 2 has no official release date.

I really liked Snow White and thought Stewart did just fine in the role. I’m up for a sequel!
Is it worth making a sequel? The first film wasn’t anything great.
Since when has that stopped Hollywood ?
I won’t be seeing the sequel, as the first installment was less than adequate. At times, it had some nice visuals, comparable to LOTR or The Hobbit, but the story was bland and the acting was atrocious.
I’m surprised she hasn’t been blacklisted yet for her behavior and terrible acting.
What acting ?:) I really don’t get it why people let her star in their movies ! Her face has always the same expression,there is not much acting involved !
Since when is a little screwing around in Hollywood considered bad taste? Everything else under the sun is considered normal, so why the sudden case of morals when it comes to infidelity?
I was SO looking forward to the first film. Silly me. That’s the last time I look forward to anything with “little miss lump of wood” in it.
While most of the acting in the film was nothing to write home about, it wasn’t atrocious. Kristen Stewart, on the other hand, was SO incredibly bland and 2-dimensional, that there were times I was wondering if she wasn’t some sort of CGI animated object instead of a real person. She had that “dead eye” look that CGI characters can have. It’s pretty sad when a REAL person causes the “uncanny valley” effect.
Most definitely, this film will be a rental.. on a slow night… once I’ve pretty much watched everything else at the video store… and there’s absolutely nothing on TV including old reruns of Law & Order…
The first one was one of the most forgettable films I’ve ever seen.
She’s just awful n she’s always in awful movies n that’s because she just makes them awful except for twilight which is plain awful regardless of which actress is in.
She def needs to go…Twilight was cool & all, but without her it would have been outstanding. Hope Pattison dumped her, and it was just to promote the movie with them acting like they reconciled. Snow White just wasn’t a good movie because of Kirsten. The huntsman seemed like a Thor with no powers.
Your argument is rendered totally invalid once you said you thought Twilight was cool
I think people over emphasis her acting ability. Yes she is horid in twilight (but the script is terrible). Her acting in SWATH wasnt great but was easly passable (excluding her “epic” speech to the troops)
so you mean underrate?
Im not saying she is good, but she isnt nearly as bad as people make her out to be.
trust me she is. In fact, the only reason I’m on this comments thread is to add my vote that KS is a horrible “actor”.
She is all but locked into reprising her role as a martially-inclined Snow White.

Well, if she were to take her clothes off it might be worth watching.
Other than that…. Why?
If her face can only perform misery then I wouldn’t hold out much hope for the rest of her body, droopy, dry and arthritic I’m guessing!
Ewww.. however I tend to think you wouldn’t throw her out of bed for eating crackers if given the chance.
Youre not wrong!
Ah hahaha!
I’m not sure why she was caste in the first one.
She is not an unattractive girl but also not what i would call an amazing beauty which i would expect for Snow White.
In terms of screen presence i don’t think she would put bums on seats either. Twilight was a succes because of the books not so much the actors.
YAY! Another naptime at the movies. Best thing about the first one was Chris Hemsworth and Charlize Theron. The rest of it was a snoozefest and I mean that literally. When Kristen was on the run I was in and out of sleep what seemed like an eternity.
lol @ “Yay another naptime at the movies” awesome post Kels
Why would anyone want to make a sequel out of that crappy movie? And I’m not saying this because of Kristen Stewart, it was generally bad
Why even make a sequel to this movie?
I saw it and felt it was a bore. It was everything one might expect. Nothing really new. A lot of digital effects that you KNOW are digital even when they didn’t have to be digital. Hell, I’m beginning to wonder if K- Stew was all digital.
Charlize Theron? I am a total fan of hers. She’s drop dead killer. But not even she was that great. As a matter of fact, the director and cinematographer made her look ugly. It was never my dream to have to see Charlize’s nostrils flaring like a wild boar.
And Hemsworth? When will he ever get a role where he’s not acting like a grunt?
K Stew? Again, I’m beginning to think she’s just one big digital effect.
Yeah, Charlize’s character probably suffered from not having much to play off of. If the other characters (Huntsman aside) had been stronger and more compelling, her evilness might have been less hard-to-swallow intense.
A sequel to this but not the Incredibles. So sad
good point.
I second that! Cars 2 and Monsters University, hell even John Carter and no Incredibles 2, insania!
She ruined the first movie.
I won’t be going, this Hack destroys every scene shes in with her horse teeth filled gaping mouth, her grunt’s and completely emotionless blank stares.
Kirsten Stewart shouldn’t have become an actress.
She’s only qualified to work as a store manikin, or a crash test dummy.
I can’t wait!! weird thing is, a few days ago you couldn’t find anyone who hated this girl more than me. But now, i’m pretty sure it was just Bella. Snow White actually made me LIKE Stewart, and coming from me.. that’s saying something. I think she was great, her and Chris Hemsworth had some good chemestry, I refuse to let this scandal with that perv ruin the movie for me. It was great, she was great, everyone was great. She may have made some bad choices, but we all do, other actors have done far worse. Leave the girl alone. If she messes up again, then we’ll no for sure what she is. Til then, I think i’ll stick with liking her. Peace out.
A few days ago?
well I for one have always been critical of her “acting” from day 1.
and you refer to the director as “the perv” – why is “he” the “bad guy” in this “scandal”??
you make it sound like she’s above blame in all this?
I could care less what people do behind closed doors, but I disagree with the suggestion that she’s the victim in that whole affair thing.
may be If you see the video {Liberty did it//an insider told] on YouTube
Well, now that Rupert Sanders is out as director maybe they will get someone who can bring out the best in Stewart, LOL. We shall see how this all plays out
Ok, everyone just get a grip! It all depends on whether or not you like Kristen Stewart. It also depends on our own tastes and opinions about her. That’s all.
I can’t wait for number 2. I hope snow and the huntsman get together, after losing his wife it would be nice to see the character happy
Seriously, what’s the point of making a sequel? The first was terrible. The story was stale, the acting was atrocious, and Stewart has to be the most plain faced, waste of space to ever play Snow White. Seriously the CGI troll was a better actor then she was.
Seriously what you just said is your opinion and your likes. You can not tell any one not to like some thing . And I think Kristen is a beautiful young woman. That is my opinion. And I love the movie another opinion. of mine.
I did not call any one names.I just investigate the facts if every one would have look at the videos of
I did not accuse any one, but all the comments you let pass attack of Kristen Stewart, I know you can see at picture, of that woman standing next to Standers That is not Kristen Stewart. You have a picture of Kristen standing next to Sanders, You can see that she only come to Rupert chin,I am not making a personal attack. The video will show you it is Liberty Ross standing with her husband, And she admitted The other one say it is Kristen and you let that be posted
