Kristen Stewart NOT Fired From Snow White Now? The Saga Continues
Earlier today word broke that Kristen Stewart was let go from the sequel to Snow White And The Huntsman. Well, now it seems that The LA Times is reporting that may not be entirely true.
But the studio that released that film, Universal, insists that plans for a second movie centering on the Huntsman character played by Chris Hemsworth are proceeding and that Stewart’s Snow White could still be a character in that film, despite reports that suggested otherwise.
While they aren’t saying that she definitely will be back they are saying the studio did not let her go. Universal has yet to select a writer or a director for the Huntsman-centered project, though Sanders does remain on the list of possible director candidates.
This is what we call “saving face” as almost every news outlet that has reported this story has mentioned how shockingly sexist it is that Stewart would be let go by Universal, but her director would still potentially be kept in the loop, as neither got good reviews, and at least Stewart has/had the fanbase. Now by saying they’re not letting Stewart go, they can hire Sanders and then have her politely decline after offering her a low sum of money to come back. Just watch.
