Kristen Stewart Out Of Snow White Sequel, It’ll Concentrate On The Huntsman Instead

Kristen Stewart isn’t haven’t a good time of it at the moment. After news of her affair with married Snow White And The Hunstman director Rupert Sanders broke, it was clear that at least one of them would have to go from the planned sequel, if only to avoid endless negative press.

Well it appears it’s Kristen who’s gotten the boot, and Universal is now moving forward on a new spin-off that focuses only on Chris Hemsworth’s Huntsman, with Kristen Stewart being left by the wayside.

David Koepp was hired in April to craft the sequel. Sources indicate that the studio is buying him out of his contract, since this newly altered project is vastly different than the one he had been hired to write. One insider believes that Rupert Sanders will return to direct, although that is not set in stone yet.

Universal’s original plan was to feature two movies with both Kristen Stewart and Chris Hemsworth’s characters, before creating a spin-off with just the Huntsman. They are currently seeking a new writer, with hopes to start shooting by next July. (Source: THR)
