Snow White and the Huntsman - Part 1

[Majik1387]

Eh, but her bad publicity and their target Twi-hard audience hating Stewart may change their minds as well.

 

[MadVillainy]

I think that if the director was someone different then Stewart might be more likely to go. But Sanders is newer to the directing game, he doesnt have many films under his belt, no one really went to the movie to see his direction. So I can see them letting him go in favor of Stewart

 

[Donut]

I would rather this be a Huntsman franchise. Then continuing with Bella as Snow White. Just bring in the other Disney Princess's that the Huntsman comes across

 

[Majik1387]

It's not Disney-based. -_-

 

[Donut]

It's not Disney-based. -_-

Well they could "borrow" from Disney

 

[Majik1387]

Not if they don't want a lawsuit.

 

[Donut]

Not if they don't want a lawsuit.

Well surely if they can get Snow White. They can get other popular Princess's besides just using Snow White ?

I'm saying they can't borrow the changes Disney gave to their tales as they got copyright on their alterations.

snow white is a public domain character I think, most of the grimms fairy tales are. so they can use other fairy tale characters, just not duplicate disney imagery. idk, maybe it's a deal like how anyone can use the frankenstein character, but not the green skinned jar head look with the bolts in the neckwithout paying universal.

Exactly.

Good enough for me as changes would also be expected anyway. They dont need Snow White for a sequel & keep the director on a leash if he came back for it

You know, I couldn't care less about this Kristen Stewart-banged-her-director crap, but if this latest news is true, then at least some good has come out of it. Because Snow White sucked, and if they're going to push ahead with a sequel anyway, at least now there's a chance that they might hire a competent director.



Director's Wife Bans Him from Returning for "Show White and the Huntsman" Sequel

We recently learned that Universal Pictures is still pursuing a sequel to "Snow White and the Huntsman," and is interested bringing back both Kristen Stewart and director Rupert Sanders, despite the fact that the two slept together. In the process, Stewart cheated on Robert Pattinson and Sanders cheated on his wife, Liberty Ross, who he has two young children with.

Pattinson quickly ended his relationship with Stewart, but Ross is sticking by Sanders. And while Universal is fine with having Stewart and Sanders on set together again, Ross has banned Sanders from directing the sequel.

"She just doesn't want him to ever work with Kristen again," a source told RadarOnline. "Rupert is obviously disappointed because 'Snow White and the Huntsman' was his directorial debut and he had hoped on building on that. But he knows his actions were inexcusable, and he's going to have to listen to his wife on this one."

Meanwhile, Summit Entertainment says that Stewart and Pattinson will both be available for the promotion of the upcoming "Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2," which hits theaters in November. Obviously things will be very awkward. ​

Story reads like all kinds of BS.

 

[Destructus86]

Seriously hollywood...learn to keep it in your pants

 

[Airwings]

A Snow White sequel? No, no and no.
Why don't they put the money on a Cinderella adaption instead?

 

[Majik1387]

Because Cinderella is the most overdone fairytale in existence of movies.

 

[DarkSovereignty]

as long as they get a better screenwriter for the sequel I'll be good. the writing in this movie was sh**.

 

[TheVileOne]

Script could've been a lot better, it needed a lot more polish.

For starters the romance was ****. No tension or love triangle or anything. The Prince Charming character could've been completely cut.

 

[DarkSovereignty]

and that entire sequence in the village full of deformed people...what was that, ten minutes? yeah, that could have been cut and it would not have effected the story or the characters in any way, no screenplay should have a TEN-F***ING-MINUTE long scene that amounts to absolutely nothing. also, and maybe this was more of a problem with my expectations, watching the trailers, I was led to believe that the forrest would be a rather big plot point in this movie, that was the big pitch, huntsmen is sent into forrest because he's the only one who's ever survived it to retrieve snow white, and they show us trolls and faeries and mossy turtles and it's all magical. the forest, and magical element therein, accumulate to about fifteen minutes of screentime. this movie, imo, couldn't figure out what it wanted to be, fantasy survival movie in a seemingly hostile environment, LOTR rip-off (with complementary quasi-enya and pointless sweeping walking shots as they quest to...where exactly?). in case you haven't noticed I really didn't like this movie lol. honestly I preffered mirror, mirror. It edfinitely more entertaining to watch, if only for the campt value. this movie was as serious as a heart-attack and pretty damn joyless.

The direction while visually cool-looking, was empty and dead. Then again so was KStew. If RPatts can get her to drop out of the sequel, perhaps it can now be good.

 

[DarkSovereignty]

I thought rpat's left her?

I rather liked that honestly. While I know the love triangle was supposed to be there, I'm happy it wasn't at the forefront.

I thought rpat's left her?

He did.

 

[DACrowe]

I thought rpat's left her?

He did, but they still have a press junket for Twilight 5 to do. One can hope they get back long enough that he can convince her to drop SW2.

I know it is bad to make light of their drama, but given how built up it was, I cannot help but shrug about it.

 

[DarkSovereignty]

oh I see, yeah, she was another thing I didn't like about this film. Not just her acting, but her character, aside from being some kind of tree jesus as I've come to call it (which was really rushed over and left undefined, she was a really bland.

No surprise that Kristen Stewart dropped out of Snow White sequel, looks like they'll focus on Hemsworth's huntsman instead.

Sources tell The Hollywood Reporter that the sequel to June's Snow White, which starred Stewart, Hemsworth and Charlize Theron, is being reconceived as a spinoff movie. It's unclear whether director Rupert Sanders will return, though one source with ties to the production says he will. However, screenwriter David Koepp, who had been hired to pen the continuation of the original film, is being settled out of his rich contract, according to sources, as the project is being transformed into something other than the movie that Koepp had been hired to write.
"The studio is currently exploring options to continue the franchise," a Universal spokeswoman says.
The move comes in the wake of Stewart, 22, and the married Sanders, 41, apologizing publicly for a romantic affair after compromising photos of the duo were published in July. (Stewart was dating her Twilight co-star Robert Pattinson.) While it might have been awkward for Stewart and Sanders to reunite for a sequel, it is not clear why the decision to move forward without Stewart was made.
It is highly unusual for Hollywood studios to drop stars of franchises between the first and second installments. The original plan, according to sources, was to make two films featuring the Snow White character and a third film spinning off the Huntsman, similar to how Fox's X-Men series has spun off Wolverine.
It's far from clear whether a Snow White follow-up will ever get made. The movie was a modest hit for Universal, grossing $389.2 million worldwide on a budget of about $170 million. But Stewart, one of Hollywood's top stars thanks to the Twilight franchise, commands a hefty salary. Declining to pick up her option would shave millions from the budget of a second movie.

Or they'll just recast her.
