Universal has shelved its sequel to Snow White and the Huntsman and is instead considering moving forward with a solo spinoff film featuring Chris Hemsworth's Huntsman character. The first picture's star, Kristen Stewart, reportedly "will not be invited to return if the follow-up goes forward."
The Hollywood Reporter has the scoop on the project. Snow White was released in June but is perhaps best known lately for the gossip that emerged regarding a romantic relationship between Stewart and the film's older, married director, Rupert Sanders. The news of Stewart being dropped from the studio's sequel plans is inevitably being connected to that tabloid story, though of course there's no confirmation that that's the reason for this decision. (It's not known whether or not Sanders will return for the sequel.)
Screenwriter David Koepp had been hired to write the Snow White sequel but is "being settled out of his rich contract." The studio is looking for a new scripter.
Meanwhile, Deadline reports that Universal has acquired the upcoming book 90 Church: The True Story of the Narcotics Squad From Hell for the director, so they're still in the Rupert Sanders business at least.
