Three drops of blood fall onto the snow - covered ground, and she wishes for a daughter as white as the snow, with lips as red as the blood, hair as black as a raven 's wings and a heart as strong and defiant as the rose. Queen Eleanor gives birth to her daughter Snow White, but soon after falls ill and dies. After her death, Snow White 's father, King Magnus, and his army battle an invading Dark Army of demonic glass soldiers. Upon rescuing their prisoner Ravenna, he becomes enchanted with her beauty and marries her. Ravenna is in fact a powerful sorceress and the Dark Army 's master. On their wedding night, Magnus, enchanted, throws Ravenna into the bed and proceeds to make love. Ravenna confesses there was a king much like Magnus that hurt her. During foreplay, she declares she can not be a weak queen and kills Magnus before unleashing her invading army upon the kingdom. Snow White 's childhood friend William and his father Duke Hammond escape the castle but are unable to rescue her, and she is captured by Ravenna 's brother Finn and locked away in the north tower of the castle for many years. Tabor is ruined under Queen Ravenna 's rule as she periodically drains the youth from the kingdom 's young women in order to maintain a spell cast over her as a child by her mother which allows her to keep her youthful beauty. When Snow White comes of age, Queen Ravenna learns from her Magic Mirror, in the form of a golden, reflective liquid shaped like a man, that her stepdaughter Snow White is destined to destroy her unless Queen Ravenna consumes the young girl 's heart, which will make her truly immortal. Queen Ravenna orders Finn to bring her Snow White 's heart, but Snow White escapes into the Dark Forest, where Ravenna has no power. Queen Ravenna makes a bargain with Eric the Huntsman, a widower and drunkard, to capture Snow White, promising to bring his wife back to life in exchange. The Huntsman tracks down Snow White, but when Finn reveals that Queen Ravenna does not actually have the power to do what she promised, the Huntsman fights him and his men while Snow White runs away. When the Huntsman catches up with her, she promises him gold if he will escort her to Duke Hammond 's castle. Meanwhile, Finn gathers another band of men to find her, and Duke Hammond and his son William learn that she is alive. William leaves the castle on his own to find her, joining Finn 's band as a bowman. The Huntsman and Snow White leave the Dark Forest, where she saves his life by charming a huge troll that attacks them. They make their way to a fishing village populated by women who have disfigured themselves to save their own lives, becoming useless to Queen Ravenna, who wants to use their beauty and youth to extend and prolong hers, as she does with Gretta whilst Snow White is still imprisoned. While there, the Huntsman learns Snow White 's true identity, and initially leaves her in the care of the women. He soon returns when he sees the village being burned down by Finn 's men. Snow White and the Huntsman evade them and eventually meet a band of eight dwarves named Beith, Muir, Quert, Coll, Duir, Gort, Nion, and Gus. The blind Muir perceives that Snow White is the daughter of the former king, and the only person who can defeat Ravenna and end her reign. As they travel through a fairy sanctuary, Snow White encounters a magical reindeer that was only in tales of legend, but as the reindeer and Snow White are about to embrace, the group is attacked by Finn and his men. The Huntsman battles Finn and eventually kills him, and William reveals himself and helps defeat Finn 's men. However, Gus is killed when he sacrifices himself to take an arrow meant for Snow White. William joins the group which continues the journey to Hammond 's castle. Halfway to Duke Hammond 's castle, Queen Ravenna disguises herself as William and tempts Snow White into eating a poisoned apple, but is forced to flee when the Huntsman and William discover her. William kisses Snow White, whom he believes to be dead and does not notice a tear fall from one of her eyes. She is taken to Hammond 's castle. As she lies in repose, the Huntsman professes his regret for not saving Snow White, who reminds him of his late wife, Sara ; and he kisses her, not noticing a second tear coming from her other eye falling. The spell broken by the love of two men she treasures, Snow White awakens and walks into the courtyard ; rallying the Duke 's army to mount a siege against Queen Ravenna. The dwarves infiltrate the castle through the sewers and open the gates, allowing the Duke 's army inside. Snow White confronts Queen Ravenna, but is overpowered. Queen Ravenna is about to kill Snow White and consume her heart. Eventually, Snow White uses a move the Huntsman taught her and mortally wounds Queen Ravenna, and Duke Hammond 's army is victorious. With Queen Ravenna defeated, the kingdom once again enjoys peace and harmony as Snow White is crowned queen.

Production Development Evan Daugherty initially wrote the screenplay in 2003, when he was studying at NYU. At the time reboots of fairy tales were not a popular film genre and according to Daugherty `` no one really knew what to do with it '' More problems came when the release of Terry Gilliam 's The Brothers Grimm ( 2005 ) flopped at the box office which caused potential buyers to be hesitant about the script. The script was finally greenlit after the success of Tim Burton 's Alice in Wonderland ( 2010 ). Casting Theron & Stewart at Wondercon 2012 in Anaheim, California on March 2012. Film producers considered casting a lesser - known actress for the role of Snow White, with mention of Riley Keough, Felicity Jones, Bella Heathcote, Alicia Vikander, and Rachel Maxwell as possible picks. This idea became less likely as known actresses Dakota Fanning and Kristen Stewart were later rumored to be short - listed for the role. On March 4, 2011 a series of tweets from co-producer Palak Patel confirmed that Stewart was offered the role. Winona Ryder was initially considered to play Queen Ravenna, before the role went to Charlize Theron. Tom Hardy was supposedly first offered the role of Eric, the Huntsman, but turned down the offer. The role was then apparently offered to Michael Fassbender, and then Johnny Depp, but both claim to have declined it. Viggo Mortensen was said to have been in negotiations with Universal for the part, but supposedly turned down the role, too. It was claimed that Hugh Jackman was offered the role, but that he declined. In 2011, Thor star Chris Hemsworth was eventually cast in the role of the Huntsman. The Dwarfs were played by actors of average height who had their faces digitally superimposed onto small bodies. This caused a protest from the Little People of America. Filming The Marloes Sands filming location for Snow White & the Huntsman Principal photography took place in the United Kingdom. The beach scenes were predominantly filmed in Pembrokeshire, on the Marloes Sands beach near the village of Marloes between September 26 and 29, 2011. Though the beach was not closed to the public during filming, as filming progressed, certain parts were advised to be off limits. A computer - generated castle was set on nearby Gateholm island. A field above the beach was used for production purposes, and a special wooden ramp was built for vehicles and horses to access the beach. The film used academic consultants from the University of Chichester and the University of Oxford for back - up research on fairy tales and medieval battles. The English band Florence and the Machine recorded `` Breath of Life '' exclusively for the film, which was reportedly inspired by Theron 's character Queen Ravenna. Release The film had its premiere on May 14, 2012, at the Empire, Leicester Square, in London. Home Media The film was released on DVD and Blu - ray in Region 1 on September 11, 2012, with both the theatrical version ( 127 minutes ) and an extended version ( 132 minutes ) available on both formats. The film was released on the same formats in Region 2 on October 1, 2012. Reception Box Office Hemsworth at the Snow White and the Huntsman movie premiere, Sydney in June 2012.

Critical reaction Stewart at the Snow White and the Huntsman premiere, Sydney in June 2012. Snow White and the Huntsman received mixed reviews from critics. The film has a 49 % `` rotten '' score on Rotten Tomatoes based on 218 reviews, with an average rating of 5.6 / 10. The site 's consensus states : `` While it offers an appropriately dark take on the fairy tale that inspired it, Snow White & the Huntsman is undone by uneven acting, problematic pacing, and a confused script. '' On Metacritic, the film has a score of 57 out of 100, based on 39 critics, indicating `` mixed or average reviews ''. CinemaScore polls conducted revealed the average grade that filmgoers gave the film was a `` B '' on an A+ to F scale. David Edelstein of New York praised the film 's revisionist tone and said the film was `` strongly influenced by a lot of smart, feminist thinking ''. Roger Ebert gave the film 3.5 stars out of 4. A.O. Scott of The New York Times praised Theron 's performance and also wrote, `` Though it is an ambitious -- at times mesmerizing -- application of the latest cinematic technology, the movie tries to recapture some of the menace of the stories that used to be told to scare children rather than console them. '' Owen Gleiberman of Entertainment Weekly wrote, `` Ravenna hates living in a world where men can feed on women 's beauty and then toss them away. She 's a fascist of feminism, and Theron 's acting has the blood of operatic anger coursing through it. '' Betsy Sharkey of the Los Angeles Times said the film is, `` an absolute wonder to watch and creates a warrior princess for the ages. But what this revisionist fairy tale does not give us is a passionate love -- its kisses are as chaste as the snow is white. '' Rolling Stone 's Peter Travers called it `` a visual marvel '' while noting that Stewart `` morphs convincingly from a skittish girl into a determined warrior princess. '' MSN news said that Stewart `` grows into her character, it seems, and eventually got this reviewer completely on her side. Colin Covert of the Minneapolis Star Tribune gave the film 4 / 4 stars. Peter Bradshaw of The Guardian said that while the film is `` less jokey than the recent Mirror Mirror '', `` this Twilightified fairytale has the same basic problem, '' and that, `` The result is tangled and overblown. '' Mick LaSalle of the San Francisco Chronicle called it `` ( a ) slow, boring film that has no charm and is highlighted only by a handful of special effects and Charlize Theron 's truly evil queen. '' Michael O'Sullivan of the Washington Post also gave the film a negative review : `` Overlong, overcrowded, overstimulating and with an over-the - top performance by Charlize Theron as the evil queen Ravenna, the movie is a virtual orchard of toxic excess, starting with the unnecessarily sprawling cast of characters. '' Lisa Kennedy of the Denver Post gave the film two out of four stars and said, `` Only Bob Hoskins as the blind seer Muir comes close to making us care. We can almost glean Snow White 's heroic possibilities through his clouded eyes. As much as we 'd like to, we certainly ca n't from Stewart 's efforts. '' Scott Foundas states that `` Stewart 's Snow White... pouts her lips, bats her bedroom eyes, and scarcely seems to have more on her mind than who might take her to the senior prom -- let alone the destiny of an entire kingdom. '' Richard Roeper gave the movie a B+, calling it `` Vastly superior to Mirror, Mirror '', and praising Theron and Stewart 's performances.
