Snow White and the Huntsman 2 has an interesting plot that has been in the works for a long time. Frank Darabont of Walking Dead is now the director and has decided to focus the story to the Huntsman instead of Snow White herself. The film is therefore titled as "The Huntsman" due to this refocusing in a fun new sequel that is bound to be just as mystical and fascinating as the original movie, which was a retelling of the fairy tale of Snow White.

Snow White and the Huntsman 2 cast are still the same with Kristen Stewart as Snow White, Academy Award winner Charlize Theron as evil Ravenna, and Chris Hemsworth as the Huntsman leading the pack. It seems with Snow White as the new Queen, new and more evil villains come in to mess with and destroy the peace of the kingdom.

Some rumored ideas for the film include Chris Hemsworth going back to the foggy, mythical forest and reuniting with the dwarves. Indeed in retrospect, the first was a beautiful film with strong images, characters and cinematic views. The picaresque quality of the film's plot also rendered it like a spool unraveling its yarn yard per yard, telling a journey of how Snow White became the rightful Queen.
