Snow White and the Huntsman SWATH is a 2012 American dark fantasy film based on the German fairy tale "Snow White" compiled by the Brothers Grimm. In the film's retelling of the tale, Snow White grows up imprisoned by her evil stepmother, Queen Ravenna, a powerful sorceress. After Snow White escapes into the forest, Ravenna tells Eric, the Huntsman that she will bring back his dead wife if he captures Snow White. After the Huntsman shifts his loyalty to Snow White, Ravenna disguises herself as William and tempts Snow White into eating a poisoned apple. The film is directed by Rupert Sanders, his first feature film, and written by Evan Daugherty, John Lee Hancock and Hossein Amini.

Snow White and the Huntsman 2012 Movie - In the epic action-adventure Snow White and the Huntsman, Kristen Stewart (Twilight) plays the only person in the land fairer than the evil queen (OscarĀ® winner Charlize Theron) out to destroy her. But what the wicked ruler never imagined is that the young woman threatening her reign has been training in the art of war with a huntsman (Chris Hemsworth, Thor) dispatched to kill her. Sam Claflin (Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides) joins the cast as the prince long enchanted by Snow White’s beauty and power.

The breathtaking new vision of the legendary tale is from Joe Roth, the producer of Alice in Wonderland, producer Sam Mercer (The Sixth Sense) and acclaimed commercial director and state-of-the-art visualist Rupert Sanders.

The Huntsman: I told you to run.
Snow White: If I had, you'd be dead.
  • The Huntsman's name is Eric.
  • The end credits state: "This film is dedicated to Little Eira White."
  • Evan Daugherty cited Hayao Miyazaki's Princess Mononoke (1997) as the main reference and inspiration for the film. The white stag that Snow White encounters in Sanctuary is a direct nod to Miyazaki.
  • Charlize Theron dropped out from J. Edgar (2011) to do this movie.
  • The drops of blood at the beginning of the film are actually the director's real blood. Sanders felt the fake blood looked too unrealistic, so he pricked his finger to get the shot he wanted.
